The Devil's Uprising

Time to overthrow the heavens was here
using the pain and sorrow of damned souls,
Satan manifests a platform of fire.
An army of demons called out the charge.

As the fires of hell lift up in the sky,
pushing up with incredible power,
like an eruption from a volcano.
The hellions readied their stalwart strike.

Celestial beings prepared for battle,
as heaven's gate shook with mighty force.
Call to duty, as angels sound the horns
drawing their steel swords the angels defend.

Darkness rises up to engulf the light
as demons penetrate the sturdy gate.
Lightening flashes from the clash of swords.
Discontent of the downcast rages on.

Satan uses all his power and spells
to weaken the angels fearless virtue.
The war for heaven in sickening sound
rips right through the calm of a moonlit night.

Caught in-between, earth will suffer foremost
for the rage and envy of the wicked,
as the battle they will certainly lose
rumbles and roars with terrible ire.

And Lucifer will cry his tears of loss
when heaven once more reigns triumphantly.
His evil intent will shudder and die
in resounding hallelujah chorus.

As tears of heaven echo for the slain,
the battle raged through the day and night,
Angels guide gives confidence of the win
pushing the demons back to where they belong.

Back into darkness, to languish below
the army of light sent minions of hell,
in cries of hurt and of tormented pain
the devilish uprising comes to end.
