about

Chapter VI:
Enoch arrives at his final destination, finding himself before the gates of an epic kingdom

lyrics

Awake to a distant land
Among a strange and wonderful world
I feel a presence come over me,
I see a great shadow over me

I look to the sky and behold
a city of sapphire and gold
a city seated on the clouds
to then I hear a great sound

A sound that breaks my bones
A thunder shakes the ground
A thousand trumpets sound
the gates have opened unto me
and a voice of thunder speaks

“Come through the gates”

Taken up in a chariot of fire
Lifted from the ground, taken higher
Carried by the hosts to the kingdom
passing through the gates as a pilgrim

I see the snake on his throne
but I dare not look in his eyes
(he calls me by name, speaking without words)
but I can’t turn away
completely powerless
(but I cannot speak the words)

Then he stares into me
his eyes of fire consuming
paralyzed by his gaze
He speaks to me

You are the one
Born to bear the message
You are the one
who shall speak unto the world
To speak the word
i shall give you a voice

I see the universe inside of me
I speak the universe inside of me
The universe inside of me
The universe inside of me
