Creeping Death Lyrics

Slaves, Hebrews born to serve
To the Pharaoh
Heed to his every word
Live in fear

Faith, of the unknown one
The deliverer
Wait, something must be done
For hundred years

So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one

So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born Pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Now, let my people go
Land of Goshen
Go, I will be with thee
Bush of fire

Blood, running red and strong
Down the Nile
Plague, darkness three days long
Hail to fire

So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one

So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born Pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first-born man

Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first-born man

I, rule the midnight air
The destroyer
Born, I shall soon be there
Deadly mass

I, creep the steps and floor
Final darkness
Blood, lambs blood painted door
I shall pass

So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one

So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born Pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

What is the Meaning of Creeping Death?

Ever wondered what happens when the Book of Exodus crashes a heavy metal party? You're in for a spine-chilling ride through the ten plagues of Egypt and the Exodus of the Hebrews. Apocalyptica cranks up the volume on this biblical narrative with roaring references to servitude, divine wrath, and ultimate liberation. It's like Moses, the Pharaoh, and the Angel of Death picked up electric cellos for a jam session. With lyrics that paint vivid scenes of plagues, the bloodstained Nile, and that fateful night of the first-borns' demise, it’s a head-banging homage to ancient history. This epic covers the haunting night when the Angel of Death crept through Egypt, making you feel the foreboding darkness and final deliverance, all while headbanging to some killer riffs.
