[Verse 1]

Storm is coming in and

I'm a long way from my home

The winter winds so icy frozen

Kadath, inner Arctic zone

I need the fire from my heights

Into the depths of the unknown

Son of the gallows God, the runic tongue

Hallow my microphone

Asatru, Rokkatru

The well of wyrd awaiting you

The Vanatru they singing through

The Fae that lives inside of you

I know it too, I'm telling you

The conquerors all lied to do

The things they did eradicate

Left everything alive askew

Cultural 'propriation

I'm the royalty 'mongst thieves

With no way out and no reprieve

Descent of thunder histories

You see it's always been the way

To steal the tools to make the art

Because you had to brave the challenge

Just to prove that you had heart

And so I retro fit ontology

For when they come for all of me

These words I won, apologies

To those who try to follow me

Nine worlds in my cosmology

And tribal my theology

My sacred etymology

Rock solid like geology

[Chorus]

Shaped inside a colder world

And so a colder world we hold

Inside a soul that grew so bold

So long ago in days of old

The folk we hold the dark within

Our folktales all so bloody Grimm

Remember how it all begins

Upon a time we had to win

Or families starve and so became

So ruthless gripping any gain

Excuse me, but I'll try explain

We're really rather quite insane

Our claim to fame, a gruesome game

Of Ice and Flame, a family name

The Mark of Cain prepared us

To become the thing that we became

[Verse 2]

Descent of children into Satan

Dark forbidden fascination

‘Nother modern incarnation

Of the man in black awaiting

Veneration, vindication

Never needed acclimation

‘Radication only brought a

Derivation detonation

Steiner, folk soul, seventh circuit

Mythic storehouse, built of purpose

Living under heavy verdict

For the ways that some interpret

Ethno-National only rational

From reactional perspective

I've collected many outlooks

Even those less than respected

While you focused on conforming

Spent my time behind the scenes

I'm always searching and exploring

A new vision, libertine

And so the ravens sing the mourning

As your bones are all picked clean

I prolly shoulda dropped a warning

It's too late to intervene

I'd rather see them burn the church

A blackened metal lullaby

For every time they brought the worst

Exemplify intensify

Imma kind of malign to the Christ design

I'm never gonna be the one to walk that line

I'm dead to the faith, outta sight, outta mind

I'm Given to the reign, rune-writ, my mind

[Chorus]

Shaped inside a colder world

And so a colder world we hold

Inside a soul that grew so bold

So long ago in days of old

The folk we hold the dark within

Our folktales all so bloody Grimm

Remember how it all begins

Upon a time we had to win

Or families starve and so became

So ruthless gripping any gain

Excuse me, but I'll try explain

We're really rather quite insane

Our claim to fame, a gruesome game

Of Ice and Flame, a family name

The Mark of Cain prepared us

To become the thing that we became

[Verse 3]

Trickery brought victory

Our witchery so wintery

Black Forest protohistory

Crawled upward out of misery

Internalized it into me

It really ain't a mystery

Deliciously, deliberately

Exalted the malignancy

An aetheling inheritance

Each paradigm a variance

A sub-culture of arrogance

Interpreted preparedness

And purposes precarious

Inflated to gregarious

Yet newer born perspectives

Achieve truly multifarious

Ridiculous romanticism

Generates fanaticism

Criticize the activism

That supports a fascist system

It's a given I'll be grinning

At the bullshit that they sit in

Never fit in unforgiven

Who the fuck is you been kidding?

Only way you've been selected

Is to hold the words collected

For the future disconnected

Selling truths so unconnected

Let revision be be rejected

Symbolism, self reflected

Looking forward, course corrected

Wyrd, the well, by flow directed

[Chorus]

Shaped inside a colder world

And so a colder world we hold

Inside a soul that grew so bold

So long ago in days of old

The folk we hold the dark within

Our folktales all so bloody Grimm

Remember how it all begins

Upon a time we had to win

Or families starve and so became

So ruthless gripping any gain

Excuse me, but I'll try explain

We're really rather quite insane

Our claim to fame, a gruesome game

Of Ice and Flame, a family name

The Mark of Cain prepared us

To become the thing that we became

[Chorus]

Shaped inside a colder world

And so a colder world we hold

Inside a soul that grew so bold

So long ago in days of old

The folk we hold the dark within

Our folktales all so bloody Grimm

Remember how it all begins

Upon a time we had to win

Or families starve and so became

So ruthless gripping any gain

Excuse me, but I'll try explain

We're really rather quite insane

Our claim to fame, a gruesome game

Of Ice and Flame, a family name

The Mark of Cain prepared us

To become the thing that we became
