The Serpent God demands Tribute!

V6

*[Intro – 95 BPM, Egyptian strings and deep drums under sci-fi horror trance]* [Male, deep booming echoing dual-tone voice] "I am Apophis... KNEEL!" *[Verse 1]* I am Apophis, the Serpent God, I ruled the stars with an iron rod! A System Lord of fearsome might, I brought the galaxy to its knees in fright! My Jaffa armies march in line, Their loyalty is owed to mine! Through the Stargate's shimmering door, I am the god you must adore! *[Verse 2]* I took the boy they called Skaara, Made him Klorel, my deadly scar-a! His sister Sha're became my queen, Amaunet, cruel and serene! The Tau'ri dared to stand and fight, SG-1, that cursed light! O'Neill, Carter, Daniel, Tealk — I'll crush them all beneath my heel! *[Chorus – horror trance drop, Egyptian horns blaring]* APOPHIS! (god! god!) The Serpent God has come! Bow before me, every one! I am your god, I am your fate — Kneel now, before it's too late! APOPHIS! *[Verse 3]* My motherships eclipse the sun, My conquest has only begun! I bombarded Earth with all my wrath, I carved destruction in my path! Sokar thought he'd take my throne, But I am Apophis, I stand alone! I died and rose from death's embrace — No grave can hold my godly face! *[Verse 4]* The Tok'ra whisper in the dark, But I will leave my burning mark! My sarcophagus heals my wounds, Beneath the light of alien moons! I am eternal, I am divine, The galaxy's fate is mine, all mine! The Jaffa rebellion, a futile dream — I am the nightmare supreme! *[Chorus 2 – bigger]* APOPHIS! (god! god!) No one defies my reign! I bring the terror, I bring the pain! System Lords will fall and fade — But I am the god that never fades! APOPHIS! *[Verse 5]* I faced the Replicators' swarm, I weathered every deadly storm! My empire spans a thousand worlds, My serpent banner still unfurls! The Asgard think they're oh so wise, But even gods can meet demise! I am the darkness in the gate — Apophis is your final fate! *[Verse 6 – slowest, most godlike]* So kneel, you mortals, hear my call, The Serpent God will rule you all! Through the Stargate I will stride, With all my armies at my side! I am the past, I am the end, No force of man can comprehend! And when the stars themselves grow dim — The universe... kneels to him. *[Final Chorus – massive]* APOPHIS! (god! god!) The Serpent God eternal! My reign is dark, my reign infernal! Bow your heads, embrace your doom — Apophis rises from the tomb! APOPHIS! *[Outro – Egyptian strings fade]* [Male] "I am your god."
