Heart cold as snow It doesn't beat the same anymore Something has changed Nothing feels like home I need the sun To erase the shadows To embrace my soul And lift the veil I pray to the sun Overturn my world Illuminate my soul Take this pain away It burns like snow On fertile land We rise and fall Where shadows stand Recycling souls The curse of aeons I need the sun To erase the shadows To embrace my soul And lift the veil Heart cold as snow It doesn't beat the same anymore Something has changed Nothing feels like home I pray to the sun Overturn my world Illuminate my soul Take this pain away I need the sun To erase the shadows To embrace my soul And lift the veil I pray to the sun Overturn my world Illuminate my soul Take this pain away

Hidden truths Hidden signs All covered in lies Unknown faces Lost souls In search of Light Kings and queens Enslaved your soul Burn them down Burn their throne They all wear masks And play their role Blind men obey and crawl Kings and queens Enslaved your soul Burn them down Burn their throne Kings and queens Enslaved your soul Bring them down Wake your soul He who speaks the truth must taste the poison To the sheep he brings confusion We are the one Universal soul So disconnected And so alone Light up the torch Burn the skies Having fun in hell feels like paradise Wake up you blind Wake up you fool You're living like another animal In life's zoo Smash all mind's windows Unlock all your doors Prepare your mind and soul for spiritual war Kings and queens Enslaved your soul Burn them down Burn their throne Kings and queens Enslaved your soul Light up the torch We go to war

Feelings of anger, guilt, shame, and fear Self-loathing, bitterness Regret and resentment Feelings of betrayal Self against self The call for awakening is already here Awakening, Right Now The dark night of the soul Intense introspection Great suffering leads To immense transformation Integration of new truth and perception The demons, the angels Were always you Awakening, Right Now Isolation in The darkness of mind The chaos gave birth To the most shining Light Finding the cure In this disorder Rehearsal before The final performance Awakening, Right Now Marks, wounds, and scars Now they are healed Signs and vivid dreams All seem so real Distractions of external world They are no longer here The secrets of universe Now they're unsealed Awakening, Right Now
4.
Endless pain Endless cycles Trapped in a cage Diving in spirals Lost in the tunnel That is called mind There's no escape There's no place to hide A place in fire And in darkness The eyes cannot see But only illusions There is no peace But only confusion Everything's in there And nothing at all Lost in the tunnel One and for all The only one The hidden key It can be lost Eternally Its power in Oblivion Waiting patiently For dark seduction
5.
Diving in spiral motion Flowing in full devotion Carving memories Manipulating the energies Discovering notion Death and rebirth Discovering notion Singularity in universe Dive and burn Truth to learn Ancient pyre The soul’s desire Into shade, we stayed in silence Blessed and cursed, with no guidance For truth untold, fate calls Dive and burn Truth to learn Ancient pyre The soul’s desire

I drink the sun I spit out flames I am bringing down the sky As I am falling My wings expand Chain to earth My soul free My final birth I ate the stars I am the Flame I fly through clouds I bring the rain
7.
A disease Deep-rooted into humankind Since everything began All in lie designed So afraid of eternal damnation Far away from illumination Prayer for salvation All in imagination So blessed In life's distress Prisoner of your own mind Can't escape the net Chains of doctrine, forged in fear Wore with pride, suppress the tear A disgrace for the ancient blood You are waiting for a savior to come Life and death is in your hands Yet you put yourself in hang So blessed In life's distress Prisoner of your own mind Can't escape the net Chains of doctrine, forged in fear Wore with pride, suppress the tear No gods, no kings, just dirt and lust Humanity lost, betrayed its trust Drowned in hypocrisy Suffocated by this curse Afraid of your own existence Trapped within the flesh As the fates weave your thread You wither, numb, hollow, misled It seems you always forget The face of the world is in yourself Fear is not something that comes from outside It is the response of thought to a challenge When thought is confronted with the unknown It becomes frightened Fear is the outcome of identification Of division between 'what is' and 'what should be' The 'me' and the 'not me'
8.
Ancient ruins Bloodline mixed and lost Poisoned minds Heroes dead and turned to frost Truths long buried Cut through flesh and bones But some still fueling the pyre Waiting to set this world on fire Fire, fire, fire Pain became our gear Fear became our spear Elimination of the night Liberation of the mind We are breaking in We are breaking down the walls Revelation of the Light Generation of fire Fire, fire, fire
9.
Look into my eyes You will see the rain Clouds in my mind But fire in my veins My roots in earth It feels like I am in chains Scarred and fading skin Dies day by day Look into my eyes A whole universe The sun in my mind All gods in my veins Flying on the sky My wings against all winds Uplifted by the Light Shining upon the sea The Light I am In darkness I am A wolf Howling at the moon A lightning Falling from sky to earth Shining bright like flame Giving life in hell Flames, ash, and dust Mind, skin, and bones As above, so below As the universe, so the soul

about

This is the first full-length album by ΦΩΣ (FOS), the new project of Thespieus, the founder and mastermind behind SVET. “I Am The Light” is a captivating dark journey through emotion, melody, and introspection. Musically, it’s the perfect fusion of different Black Metal realms — from the rawness and cold atmosphere of the Northern sound to the lyricism and melodic essence of the Mediterranean and the Hellenic Black Metal scene. This album could not go unnoticed by Hellenic Metal World, and thus, the collaboration was inevitable.
