Job For A Cowboy - Bearing The Serpent's Lamb Lyrics






This virgin churns on the back of her own indisposed and throbbing body.
Nauseated she chokes on her own vomit emitted from her distended and desiccated throat.
Weak and obscured this woman's body begins to convulse and twitch in her now soiled sheets with an abdomen beginning to flourish as her ribs now unhinge and shift.
Beneath the rib cage lay a sweltering child.
A child forcing and pushing outward for decampment of his mother's womb.

Bearing a bastard child.
Bearing what is now the son of the new world's lord.
Bearing the serpent's lamb.
Overwhelmed she grows debilitated and weak.
Staying attentive becomes more burdensome, a struggle to stay awake as her body starts to contract, she mutters one conclusive, crowning breath.
"Why would such a God allow such deep evil? Theodicy!"

The curtains are slowly lowered over her solitary and meaningless life.
Her chest lay open, a gaping wound revealing the damage left inside.
Her own body only used to mask the beast that dwelled internally.
This orphan child scowls over the remains of his birth given origin, his own mother - only to grow through his adolescence to clench the name of the Antichrist.

  1. j.... 4....

    Can you believe they used to sell this at Walmart? Lol

    j.... 4....

    Glad we can still appreciate this masterpiece!

  2. D.... ....

    This is one of their best songs.

  3. 1.... ....

    This album came out right when I was getting into metal when I was a freshman in high school so it’s got a ton of nostalgia for me. I remember at the time people were shitting on it because JfaC changed their sound so much from the Doom ep but man this album has aged so well and it’s really ashamed that it seems to be mostly forgotten to time. Pretty underrated record if you ask me

  4. D.... C....

    AN AMAZING FUCKING ALBUM INDEED!

  5. *.... ....

    So beautiful 💔

  6. v.... g....

    My parents named me after this album, Genesis, this is some top quality music right here

  7. J.... N....

    one of the most underrated death metal bands imo. All of there albums are good including Doom

    J.... N....

    Doom is ok. The rest of their stuff is absolute insanity.

  8. P.... M....

    I can now confirm in 2017 after scouring the interwebz for 10 years looking for the best metal album of all time, that GENESIS is the undisputed heavyweight champion

    P.... M....

    Nocturnal doesn't contend? I disagree. Incredible album indeed but I think Nocturnal is the undisputed champion.

    P.... M....

    Nocturnal isn't even the best Black Dahlia album haha.

    Ritual and Deflorate are both better, imo.

  9. C.... D....

    ou shit eu tenho q baixar todas as músicas dessa banda ela er simplesmente foda riri

  10. J.... W....

    This album has become the soundtrack to Trump's America

  11. F.... ....

    Wow, throw back. Still a cool song to this day!

  12. J.... A....

    this song and martyrdom unsealed are the hardest on tgis album

  13. n.... ....

    Awesome instrumentals! Those vocals by Davy are insanely good aswell.

    n.... ....

    any idea how much processing are used on his vocals?

    n.... ....

    @Jason Buerlen I think Johnny can do his vocals pretty well live, just check out some videos here on YouTube.

  14. H.... B....

    drums are insane

    H.... B....

    Well. It's Elliott Sellers, right?

  15. O.... B....

    That was the best album ever made... miss the old JFAC songs

    O.... B....

    I dig the new shit too cause im a whore for tech-death stuff. But yes, this album gave me a whole new outlook on this band.

  16. S.... L....

    She utters one conclusive crowning breath

    S.... L....

    SAIYANLINEAGE \\\\\\\ Why would such a God allow such deep evil? Theodicy!

  17. Z.... ....

    Have any of you guys heard Winds of Creation by Decapitated? :)
    Anyone who likes highest quality death metal and riff fests and enjoys this awesomeness should dig.
    Oh and any classic Suffocation too :P

    Z.... ....

    ITS LIKE A BIG YUMMY RIFF SAMMICH <3

    Z.... ....

    +Zyborggian For a couple weeks now I've tried getting into Decapitated with little to no success. Once the groove kicks in at the beginning of "Mandatory Suicide" I'm in metallic nirvana, but then the vocals kick in and everything just falls apart for me. I can grow to love the STYLE of vocals, but the production is so horrible that it just sounds like it was recorded with an iPod. I want to enjoy them SO MUCH though, because the actual music is just fantastic. I'll keep trying, but the outlook isn't very good.

    Z.... ....

    ... You know thats a Slayer song right? :P & Fair enough a vocalist can make or break a band. & naaaaaah the production is ace imo. Completely raw & organic but everythings discernable. Just the mastering sucks. all metal albums are too loud & lacking in dynamic range these dat hehe. Sweet tho man
    The reason I like it is because I think it's the holy bible of death metal riffs. But then Vogg's creativity flew out the window somewhere along the way lol

    Z.... ....

    Zyborggian yeah i love both those bands bro not just that album but the song itself winds of creation from start to finish is just vicious. check out cattle decapitation as well trust me along the same lines of heaviness. album monolith of inhumanity. anyhow rock on brother if you lived in canada west id smoke you on a blunt and call you a dear freind

    Z.... ....

    Thats exactly the kind of death metal ive been looking for man , thanks

  18. T.... ....

    RIFF BUFFET OVER HERE!

  19. S.... S....

    The best death metal album I've ever heard! A treat for any metalhead

    S.... S....

    @Bart Rejman haha! Yea it's crazy right!? My personal opinion is not yours? Gee who would've thought...

    S.... S....

    @Tyler CEO NFGxFSUxInc. dude this album owned so hard

    S.... S....

    +Tyler CEO NFGxFSUxInc. "thieving throughout the ages of man...he's come to claim eternal prize...'' ha ha

    S.... S....

    A quality performance/album, however since 1991 still NOTHING beats the album which defined the whole technical death genre, Effigy of the Forgotten by Suffocation :)

    S.... S....

    Obviously we'll disagree about what album is best for death metal. But what I love about this one is that it's so contiguous that I'll listen to it on repeat accidentally all the time. It just keeps feeling good and new.

  20. W.... ....

    The lead singer holds really deep messages in his lyrics we should all pay attention to. The words he screams are warning us of the future that lays before us if we continue to let corruption flourish in this world. If you pay attention and closely analyze some of the current events that are occurring today, you will see corruption is more and more prevalent within everything we see.

    W.... ....

    Lmfao theres a reason this album is called genesis

    W.... ....

    RealMetalGaming A. You’ve never witnessed a miracle
    B. You’ve never witnessed poltergeist activity and physical Demonic oppression
    C. You’ve never had sleep paralysis and been attacked and seen dark demonic entities toying with you while you lay awake paralyzed in your bed

    I have witnessed it all, my friends and family are also witnesses. I was an atheist until my cousins house and my best friends house was plagued and attacked by demonic entities. The miracle we witnessed was when we prayed and invoked the name of Jesus and the evil presence left instantaneous and never returned to bother us again. If Satan isn’t real then why were we haunted by demonic entities? And if Jesus isn’t real then why did this dark presence disappear from just speaking his name? You might not choose to believe me, but I could careless because I witnessed a phenomena that many wish to see and will never get to experience. If you’d seen the things I have, you wouldn’t be atheist anymore like I used to be.

    W.... ....

    th3kingx and the indisputable proof? Where is that, sir?

    W.... ....

    They're far from current events. What is playing out right now is the agenda of people who drew up a plan a few hundred years ago and have been playing god ever since.

    W.... ....

    @TheVexxed Coder 1000s years

  21. J.... T....

    I hope the next album they release has some brutal songs like on Genesis

  22. J.... T....

    I love this shit

  23. z.... ....

    Job For A Cowboy is fucking awesome!

  24. S.... P....

    genius rifts 

  25. x.... ....

    so much more raw than the new stuff

  26. D.... R....

    The riff at 0:27 is the most evil sounding riff I've ever heard. So deadly.

  27. T.... K....

    Riffs, riffs, riffs everywhere!
