Hellfire
Black Pyre Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mighty Princes ov Sin
Rain Hellfire upon thine sworn enemy
Descend upon those rotten and untrue
Feast on the unworthy
Take us into thine arms
Hold us for deliverance true
Taketh me below O daemon
Taketh my soul to rest
The starving feed
On the flesh ov the weak
His Kingdom will not come
We are all who have done wrong
Apotheosis ov Lucifer
Flames ov below rain from the sky
The stone rages and cracks
The ascension, devil to divine
Daemons forth are called
To the kingdom ov the wicked
Us, the evil ones
Great legions ov beneath
Rise up and wreak upon man
Reap the fruits ov our sin
Angelic descent
Wings black out the sun
Rapture, the final apocalypse
Battle, the epic reckoning
The last stand ov light
To the fires ov Bael below
Curse unto the holy
Blood weeps from open wounds
The winged beasts falleth
Fall to the ground and shatter




Gravesend for angels
The reign ov Hellfire is nigh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Black Pyre's song "Hellfire" depict a scene of chaos, destruction, and the rise of darkness. The "Mighty Princes ov Sin" are called upon to rain "Hellfire" upon their enemies, those who are rotten and untrue. The lyrics portray a desire for revenge and justice, as the unworthy are to be feasted upon. The singer, seemingly embracing the demonic side, asks the "daemon" to take their soul and bring them to rest below. It is suggested that this embrace of darkness is a response to the suffering caused by those in power, as those "who have done wrong" are all seeking refuge in this newfound evil.


The imagery in the lyrics further intensifies, with the "flames ov below rain from the sky" and the "stone rages and cracks." There is a sense of rebellion and a desire for a transformation, as the devil ascends to become divine, and the daemons are called forth to create a wicked kingdom. The "legions ov beneath" rise up against man, reaping the fruits of their sin. The lyrics also mention an "angelic descent," but rather than bringing light or salvation, the winged beasts fall and shatter, symbolizing the defeat of purity and the rise of darkness. The lyrics speak of the impending reign of "Hellfire," suggesting an apocalypse and the final battle between light and darkness.


Overall, the lyrics of "Hellfire" portray a dark and chaotic scene, with themes of revenge, rebellion, and the embrace of evil in response to the perceived injustice and suffering caused by those in power.
