So you think you've got friends on High Terra<br/>
With the power to put us on the run<br/>
Well, forgive us if we give a chortle<br/>
You'll know what power is when we are done<br/>
Mortal...<br/>

You're playing with the daemons now<br/>
Playing with the daemons now (Oh, that's nice...)<br/>
Every spell and gesture<br/>
Tells you who's your master<br/>
You're playing with the daemons now<br/>

You're playing with the daemons now<br/>
You're playing with the daemons now<br/>
Stop this vain resistance<br/>
Embrace your true existence<br/>
Give in to temptation now<br/>
Pick up your powerfist, boy<br/>
You're playing with the daemons now!<br/>

[Cult Leaders]<br/>
You're playing with the daemons now<br/>
You're playing with the daemons now<br/>
By the might of Horus<br/>
You will kneel before us<br/>
Kneel to our splendorous power...<br/>
You try to keep faith<br/>
But you know we're right<br/>
And just to show we feel no spite<br/>
You can be our acolyte<br/>
But first, boy, it's time to betray<br/>
(All the way!)<br/>
Or your soul will be consumed, boy<br/>
You're playing with the daemons now<br/>
Playing with the daemons<br/>
Now!<br/>

===The Prince of Egypt: The Plagues===
[Chorus]<br/>
Thus said the Gods:<br/>
Since you refuse to yield your reign<br/>
All through the Imperium of Man...<br/>

I send your soldiers on thy self<br/>
Into your space, throughout the void<br/>
Onto your worlds, into your streets<br/>
Into your habs, into your forts<br/>
Upon your ranks, on your troops<br/>
Upon your people in your hives<br/>
Into your minds, into your souls<br/>
And every aspect of your lives<br/>
I send the swarm, I send the horde<br/>
Thus said the Gods!<br/>

[Horus]<br/>
Once I called you father<br/>
Once I thought the chance<br/>
to make you proud<br/>
Was all I ever wanted...<br/>

[Chorus]<br/>
I send the thunder from the sky<br/>
I send the fire raining down<br/>

[Horus]<br/>
And even now I wish the Gods <br/>
had chose another<br/>
Serving as your foe on their behalf<br/>
Is the last thing that I wanted...<br/>

[Chorus]<br/>
I send a hail of burning ice<br/>
On every field, on every hive<br/>

[Horus]<br/>
This was my home<br/>
All this pain and devastation<br/>
It never had to be this way<br/>
All the warriors who suffer<br/>
From your stubbornness and pride...<br/>

[Chorus]<br/>
I send such fleets out through the void<br/>
The galaxy has never seen<br/>
On every globe, on every world <br/>
Until there's nothing left of green<br/>
I send my scourge, I send my sword<br/>
Thus said the Gods!<br/>

[Emperor]<br/>
You who I called my son<br/>
Why must you call down another blow?<br/>

[Chorus]<br/>
I send my scourge, I send my sword<br/>

[Horus]<br/>
Let my warriors rule<br/>

[Horus and Chorus]<br/>
Thus said the Gods<br/>

[Emperor]<br/>
You who I called my son<br/>
How could you have come to hate me so?<br/>
Is this what you wanted?<br/>

[Chorus]<br/>
I send the swarm, I send the horde...<br/>

[Emperor]<br/>
Then let my heart be hardened <br/>
And never mind how high the cost may grow<br/>
This will still be so:<br/>
I will never let my empire go...<br/>

[Chorus]<br/>
Thus said the Gods:<br/>

[Horus]<br/>
Thus said the Gods:<br/>

[Emperor]<br/>
I will not...<br/>

[Horus, Emperor, and Chorus]<br/>
Let your (my) empire go!<br/>

===The Prince of Egypt: Deliver us===
[Kabalite Warriors]<br/>
Blood...Sweat...Pain...Soul...Faster!<br/>
Blood...And lift...Soul...And Pull<br/>
Pain...And raise up...Soul...Faster!<br/>

[Imperial Slaves]<br/>
With the sting of the whip on my shoulder<br/>
With the salt of my sweat on my brow<br/>
Emperor, God up high<br/>
Can you hear your people cry:<br/>
Help us now<br/>
This dark hour...<br/>

Deliver us<br/>
Hear our call<br/>
Deliver us<br/>
Lord of all, remember us, here in this xeno waste<br/>
Deliver us<br/>
There's a world you promised us<br/>
Deliver us to the promised world...<br/>

[Yocheved - Imperial captured agent]<br/>
Yal-di ha-tov veh ha-rach<br/>
(My good and tender son)<br/>
Al ti-ra veh al tif-chad<br/>
(Don't be frightened and don't be scared)<br/>
My son, I have nothing I can give<br/>
But this chance that you may live<br/>
I pray we'll meet again<br/>
If He will deliver us<br/>

(song is either high or low gothic, whichever works)<br/>

[Slaves]<br/>
Deliver us<br/>
Hear our prayer<br/>
Deliver us<br/>
From despair<br/>
These years of slavery grow too cruel to stand<br/>
Deliver us<br/>
There's a world you promised us<br/>
Deliver us<br/>
Out of bondage and<br/>
Deliver us to the promised world...<br/>

[Yocheved]<br/>
Hush now, my baby<br/>
Be still, love, don't cry<br/>
Sleep as you're embraced by the Emperor<br/>
Sleep and remember my last lullaby<br/>
So he'll be with you when you dream<br/>

(Yocheved gives the baby to a Marine Scout scouting the planet)<br/>

Noble Astartes<br/>
Fly gently for me<br/>
Such precious cargo you bear<br/>
Do you know somewhere<br/>
he can live free?<br/>
Astartes, deliver him there.</br>

[Young SOB Initiate]<br/>
Brother, you're safe now<br/>
And safe may you stay<br/>
For I have a prayer just for you:<br/>
Grow, baby brother<br/>
Come back someday<br/>
Come and deliver us, too...<br/>

[Slaves]<br/>
Deliver us<br/>
Send a shepherd to shepherd us<br/>
And deliver us to the promised world<br/>

[Yocheved]<br/>
Deliver us!<br/>
Marine, deliver him there...<br/>

===The road to El Dorado: It's tough to be a god===
[[File:Aurelian.jpg|500px|right|thumb|Mfw it's such a hot mixtape]]

''After the Word Bearers's humiliation on Monarchia, Lorgar has refused to leave his room''<br>
'''[Lorgar]'''<br>
I can't lead, I'm not qualified<br>
He told me He won't be deified<br>
We were disgraced by the Ultramarines<br>

'''[Kor Phareon]'''<br>
Lorgar, what are you talking about?!<br>
The Emprah forced us to our knees<br>
But religion is a need<br>
We'd better seek some gods other than him<br>

'''[Lorgar]'''<br>
Other than him? Other than him? Other than him?<br>
'''[Khor Phareon]'''<br>
Chaos gods!<br>

'''[Lorgar]'''<br>
I shall look for some gods<br>
Tread where mortals have not trod<br>
I will be enlightened, I'll surpass Guilliman<br>
Need an object of devotion<br>
Need a subject for psalms<br>

'''[Kor Phareon]'''<br>
It's a rather touching notion,<br>
all those prayers and those salaams.<br>

'''[Lorgar]'''<br>
And who am I to be hostile<br>
if I'm chosen as their apostle?<br>
If they say that I'm their man, that's what I am.<br>

What's more, if we don't comply<br>
with the chaos gods' wishes,<br>
I can see us being sacrificed or cursed.<br>

'''[Kor Phareon]'''<br>
You have a point, yes, that's very good thinking.<br>

So! Let's seek gods!<br>
The perks are great.<br>
Emprah gone without a trace!<br>
The Word Bearers should not be rebuffed.<br>

'''[Lorgar]'''<br>
Never rebuff, never rebuff Word Bearers' prayers, no Father!<br>

'''[Lorgar and Kor]'''<br>
We'll seek old Colchis' gods<br>
but we should get some Primarch's nods,<br>
"Count your blessings,<br>
corrupt Horus",<br>
that's their advice.<br>

'''[Lorgar]'''<br>
It's great advice!<br>

'''[Lorgar and Kor]'''<br>
Steal the Kinebranch Athame<br>

'''[Kor Phareon]'''<br>
And wound Horus!<br>

'''[Lorgar and Kor]'''<br>
Form a cult!<br>
Fight on Davin,<br>
and make his legion<br>
take him to the Serpent's Lodge.<br>

'''[Kor Phareon]'''<br>
Don a supernatural habit<br>

'''[Lorgar]'''<br>
We'd be crazy not to grab it!<br>

'''[Lorgar and Kor]'''<br>
So sign on our legion for heresy...he-re-sy!<br>
