The song "Prophecy" by Evile tells a story of fallen angels seeking revenge on mankind and overthrowing heaven. The lyrics depict the anger and disillusionment of the angels who were once trusted and faithful but were ultimately condemned. The opening line "Let the heavens bleed" represents the angels' desire for vengeance. They no longer hunt for personal gain or greed but for the sake of reclaiming their former reverence. The angels were banished from heaven, referred to as the kingdom of hell in the lyrics. This banishment sparked a holy war, and mankind becomes a mere spectator, looking on as the conflict unfolds. The line "Loyalties meaningless, our faith in you it now turns to dust" suggests the angels' loss of faith in a higher power. They no longer trust in the entity that condemned them and question the significance of their former loyalties. As the angels plan their revenge, they vow to take back what is rightfully theirs and rule paradise (heaven) with their own hands. The lyrics convey their determination to confront and defeat mankind, symbolized by the line "Their burning souls light our path" and the imagery of blood covering the land as they bring devastation upon humanity. The chorus, "In you we trusted, but you condemned us all, so now your kingdom shall fall," expresses the angels' disillusionment and their intent to overthrow the ruling entity. They believed in this being, likely referring to a divine being or God, but feel betrayed and sentenced to punishment. Overall, the song portrays the fallen angels' rebellion against the higher power, emphasizing their anger, desire for revenge, and the belief that they are capable of rightfully ruling paradise.
