Némesis
Trident Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Forefathers, gods of filth, in the presence of your shadow I act
Sacred ones, warrior kings, I shall gain in the temples of sin
Ancestors, hear my call, your blood is burning in my veins
Ancient spirits, light up my path, guide me through the piles of flesh

Falling through the hellish fires, tripping on ancient lust and desires

Orgies of the unspeakable, perverted acts of sin
Under the goat god, devoured of lust, by sweat and by naked skin

Kings of Rome, gods of Hades, rise up from the abyss now as I call
Into the chambers and dungeons of hell, in ecstasy laughing we fall
Generals of death and lust, all mastering the secrets of flesh
To revel in women, steer their energies and immortal I shall march into war

Sodom, Gomorrah, seal my Nemesis
Succubus, Valkyria, take me Nemesis
Hades, Roma, seal my Nemesis
Lilith, Kova, take me Nemesis

Enlighten and purify, I laugh as I'm burning
Drain me in fire and blasphemic sulphur
Swallow the essence of my cursed spirit
Take me, I'm yearning, gods of infernal

Enlighten and purify, I laugh as I'm burning
Drain me in fire and blasphemic sulphur
Swallow the essence of my cursed spirit
Fuck me, I'm coming, gods of infernal

Orgies of the unspeakable, perverted acts of sin
Under the goat god, devoured of lust, by sweat and by naked skin

Forefathers, I summon you, rise in the unholy smoke
Sacred ones, masters of war, reveal the secrets of the condemned
Ancestors, hear me now, I have chosen to walk on your path
Ancient spirits, walk with me towards the glowing and definitive dark

Sodom, Gomorrah, seal my Nemesis
Succubus, Valkyria, take me Nemesis




Hades, Roma, seal my Nemesis
Lilith, Kova, take me Nemesis

Overall Meaning

The lyrics present a dark and disturbing vision of a person who calls upon ancient gods and spirits to guide and empower them. The singer addresses a series of forefathers, gods, and spirits, asking them to grant him strength and revel in forbidden pleasures. The singer speaks of "temples of sin" and "orgies of the unspeakable," hinting at depraved and sacrilegious acts that occur in these places.


The second verse continues to explore these themes of hedonism and darkness, with references to hellish fires and the goat god (often associated with Satanism). The singer calls upon "generals of death and lust" to teach him the "secrets of flesh" and help him revel in the energy of women. The final lines of the verse imply that this empowerment will lead to war and conquest, as the singer claims to be "immortal" and ready to march.


The chorus, with its repeated calls to various mythological beings to "seal" or "take" the singer's "Nemesis," adds to the sense of danger and menace that pervades the song. Throughout the lyrics, there is a sense that the singer is playing with forbidden powers that they may not entirely understand, and that their quest for strength and pleasure may ultimately lead to their downfall.
