I, the mage, Ek Erilaz to be

Much more than the man I was,

Transforming my weakness

To the strength of the Gods,

Empower myself to beating all the odds,

And I must crawl a long way, I know,

Before it will even begin to show,

My soul's ascent and my spirit will rise,

I will, cast the circle with my blood-shot eyes,

Arise, Arise!

And I'm hell-bent and spell-spent

I will Arise, Arise, Arise!

Erilaz, the hidden Lord, I'm glowing

Red-hot, straight from the forge,

Feel the power growing stronger and greater

Greater than it was before,

And I'm reaching down, deep in the sacred well,

To put you all under my enchanted spell,

By the eagle's cry and the serpent's hiss!

I'm gonna rule my world with an iron fist!

Arise, Arise!

And I'm hell-bent and spell-spent

I will Arise, Arise, Arise!

You'll see my soul Arise!

Am I good enough?

Feels like I've paid my dues enough!

Is it my time?

Can someone please help me, please give me a sign,

Rule the mighty winds, move all surrounding land,

Learn to work the waters, wield the fires with

My own two hands!

I know it seems like I'm asking a lot,

But I'm gonna give it every single thing within

The entire fiber of my being that I've got,

Give it everything I've got!

Bleed myself dry, become self-hypnotized,

For my own glory I will vie, 'til I feel my soul ascend

and my spirit Arise!

If I conquer myself then I will conquer my world,

With the Gods at my side and my banners unfurled,

Ain't no stopping all the power I've raised

Because I'm coming on, full on, all out, all guns ablaze!

And I must crawl a long way, I know,

Before it will even begin to show,

By the eagle's cry and the serpent's hiss,

I'm gonna rule the world with an iron fist,

Arise, Arise!

And I'm hell-bent and spell-spent

I will Arise, Arise, Arise!

You'll see my soul Arise!
