This song doesn't make me want to bow down, it makes me want to run. Dark and motivating, chastising and fearful... I think you captured the fear of death (running) and respect for death (falling down in futility) really well with those lyrics.

This is my jam today. Really great job for a quick take on a theme. I'm imaging what it would sound like with a longer production time, but I think I'd like it either way. It feels rooted. Brings me back in sound to the old feeling of metal at its origins. Nice vocals too. Excited to hear more like this.
