Assim Na Terra Como No Inferno

Akaimanto Akaimanto

As Above So Below

As above so below
I fell into this hole and inside this mess
All that's left is the end of a cheap cigarette
I know I won't see the sunrise anymore
And all those I screwed over won't let me fall asleep

I was the leader of an expedition
Where our group deciphered a secret without authorization
About the philosopher's stone and various treasures with unmatched values
From the pyramids of Egypt to Afghanistan stopping in Paris
And beneath this ground
Different from the beauty above

I see despair in this girl's eyes
Seeing these bones scattered on the floor
The catacombs of Paris will bring answers
Hey, if I were you, I wouldn't go in there
I had a friend named La Tolpe
He went in there and never came back

My dear young man, I have ambition
Nothing will hinder my path
Gather your belongings and get out of my way
I will find great wealth, I
Already see it in my mind

Following that somewhat strange path
Strange things began to happen
Shadows following us
All light fading away
And up ahead I could read

Upon entering here
Abandon all hope
That was what was written on the gate to hell
According to our ancestors

With me were George, Scarlet, and Zed
The first to go crazy among us was Math
It started with paranoia and he said he was seeing
His dead brother for years right in front of him dying
And in a moment of distraction
We found his body lying there on the ground
Over a large pool of blood and a sharp stone in his hand

Shortly after, Zed screamed
And with his camera, he hit George
Several times continuously without stopping
Scarlet frozen ahead crying
Zed said: Get out of my head
It wasn't my fault
Let him rot
I could see the anger in his eyes bursting out
Stay away, for I can't control myself
He pulled out an old colt and began shooting against his own chest

Upon entering here
Abandon all hope
That was what was written on the gate to hell
According to our ancestors

Scarlet, I see a light just ahead
Maybe it's the way out or we can move forward
Reaching there was a small tunnel
And at its end, there was light and a lot of noise
Noise of cars and people as if from a big city
And just hearing that sound I was relieved for a brief moment

Look, this is a sewer cover
Finally, we'll say goodbye to this filthy place
Scarlet passing by and looking back just a common sewer and nothing more
I saw the manhole cover simply disappear
And in the distance, I could hear a voice say
Now suffer eternally

As above so below
I fell into this hole and inside this mess
All that's left is the end of a cheap cigarette
I know I won't see the sunrise anymore
And all those I screwed over won't let me fall asleep
