The song "The Prophet" by the Slovenian band Eruption tells the story of a blind prophet who foresees a future of war and devastation. The prophet's visions come from gazing at the sun until his eyes bleed, leading him to spread messages of death and decay. As he becomes increasingly delusional, his followers become slaves to his mad desires, resulting in violence, starvation, and pain. The lyrics describe how the prophet's mind and sanity deteriorate as he continues to gaze at the sun, ultimately leading to his death. The song portrays the destructive power of his visions and the impact they have on humanity, painting a picture of a bleak and hopeless future. Overall, the song serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of following false prophets and the consequences of choosing violence and hatred over peace and compassion.
