Djehuty Mes Lyrics


Enslaved from birth for eons

Tormented, raped

Under the endless desert sun

Holocaust perpetuates

Building the temples to pharoahs

Crippled products of incest

Our hate cultivated to marrow

Take back our family’s riches

King Djehuty Mes was to pass

The ritual of death had begun

The interment of kings we raced

Taking action to escape

Deep into the moonless night

Silent on the Nile we have not slept

Minds racing dreams in flight

To begin our descent into the depths

The Deir-El-Medina well paid

For maps to the entry

Gods be with us on our raid

Of the tomb of Djehuty Mes

Of the tomb of Djehuty Mes

Perimeter guards are gone

Systematically assassinated

Bloodied on their master’s quarter

Our fortunes left to fate

Torches lit we enter the tomb

Winding frantic through the chasms

The king’s chamber opens before us

Suddenly the second guard enters behind us

Betrayed by the Deir El-Medina

Entrapped, torture our just reward

Mutilation in the shadow of Giza

Tied to the gallows our party of five

Limbs twisted and crushed

Faces whipped, torn, and lacerated

Left to die in the shadow of Giza
