Prophecy
Agonizer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I heard the prophecy
Impossible to break
I told you it's not true
You said many would doubt the truth

I failed to see you way
I can't believe it's true
You can't be talking with god
You said many

Would you believe in me
and fail to see

I can't believe you
I must be going insane
I can't forget those words
You must be screwing me

IF I FOLLOW YOU
From now on
I WILL BE REBORN
I will be reborn
AND THE PROPHECY
DENIES THE TRUTH
AND ME AND YOU

You put the words in my mouth
You told what I should think
Where is the famous free will?
Where are the decisions that I made?

What should I make of this?
Should I hate your god?




You can't be talking with god
You said many

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Agonizer's song Prophecy seem to be about a person who once believed in a prophecy, but now questions its truthfulness. The singer in the song tells someone that they were wrong about the prophecy being unbreakable, and that many others have doubts as well. The person they are speaking to tells them that they are talking to God, which causes the singer to question their own sanity. They feel as though the other person is trying to control them and put words in their mouth, causing them to doubt their own free will and decision-making abilities. The lyrics are filled with a sense of conflict and mistrust, as the singer tries to reconcile their beliefs with the actions of those around them.


Overall, the song seems to be a commentary on the nature of belief and faith, and how easily those things can be manipulated or corrupted. The lyrics suggest that people can be led astray by false prophets or those who claim to speak for God, and that it is important to question these claims rather than blindly accepting them. The chorus of the song also highlights the idea of rebirth, suggesting that the singer may be able to find a new sense of purpose or direction if they are able to break free from the constraints of the prophecy and those who seek to control them.
