This is about the (in)famous Horus Heresy, one of the greatest events in Warhammer 40k. It has spawned 45+ books, a game campaign and now this.
Warmaster Horus is my name
Heresy brings to me no shame
Death and agony is my game
Legions to me shall turn
Mark themselves my golden eye
If the Imperium refuses to fall
Then let the galaxy burn
Horus is my name
I am the heretic
I am the traitor
The bringer of pain
I stand clad in the Serpent's Scales
Pledged, heart and soul to the forces of Chaos
Ready and armed with the Worldbreaker
At your throat rests my adamantium nails
They say I am a demon
A wicked bird of war
But I am more, far more
I shall reign over all the Imperium of Man
Purged the loyalists from my ranks
We kneel before no emperor
I lead the Black Legion into battle
Chaos Marines, dreadnoughts and tanks
Horus is my name
I am the heretic
I am the traitor
The bringer of pain
Down to Terra I descend
Loyalist forces are cut off
The Ruinstorm has succeeded
The Emperor's flesh I shall rend
Horus is my name
I am the heretic
I am the traitor
The bringer of pain
Warmaster Horus is my name
Heresy brings to me no shame
Death and agony is my game
So I say
Let the galaxy burn
