Satanas
Sarcófago Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On fire of darkness rise a scream of hate
Satanas want vomit on Jesus Christ's face
Your eyes have wrath
And promising a slaughter
The angels of Lucifer are ready to destroy
Thrash!
Argh!
Satanas' revenge is started
And the Heaven is burning
God angels are dead the survivors are crying
The sacred cross is breaked
And demons are smiling
Because your lord Satanas
Raped the mother of Christ
Satanas
Ah!
The lyrics of Sarcófago's song Satanas portray a violent, demonic vision of revenge against God and his angels. The song starts with the line "On fire of darkness, rise a scream of hate," invoking a sense of anger and destruction. Satanas, the demon lord, wants to vomit on the face of the son of God, expressing his disdain and contempt for Christianity. The lyrics also mention the angels of Lucifer, who are ready to destroy, indicating a full-blown assault is underway. The lyrics describe Satanas' wrathful eyes as promising slaughter, and the whole picture evokes a sense of chaos, pain, and death.
In the next part of the song, the lyrics proclaim that Satanas' revenge has begun in earnest. The heavens are burning, God's angels are slain, and only survivors can pray in desperation. The sacred cross is broken, and the demons are smiling, indicating that Satanas has achieved a decisive victory over Christianity.

Brazilian Black/Death Metal forefathers, and the best band on this compilation.
I still remember the impact of seeing this music on a live show of the band on late August, 1986.
@moltar706
Better than the album version, in my opinion
@beamsfromdaathsun2340
Korgull27, absolutely! DD Crazy really kills in this one.
@martinolopezcastro9739
No
@fabiojimenezacosta4482
Agree
@andresfelipesalahmartin9101
That's right
@gormainarchive
@@beamsfromdaathsun2340 This is not D.D. Crazy playing.
At the time, D.D. Crazy moved out for a while so they got a substitute drummer called Armando Leprous. Eventually D.D. Crazy went back to Sarcófago's hometown Belo Horizonte to record "I.N.R.I.", and Armando joined Holocausto to rrcord "Campo de Exterminio".
