Promise of the Black Hearted By El Shaddai

I shall never forget my first brush with the Ottoman Empire

For that day they put all that I loved to fire.

That day I made a promise to the embodiment of my hate

That I would bring this empire to its fate.

At first like them I prayed on the weak,

Small towns with walls so meek,

But soon I would lead my men to bigger villages

With government officials the new target of my pillages.

Soon horror would come across the Sultan's face

As I put his very best to disgrace.

The old man who had turned my heart so black

Then sent his lap dog to plunge a sword into my back

But turned and impaled his pet upon my spear

And in his eyes I saw only fear.

I told Ahmet when the old man dies

The only light he will see is the hatred burning in my eyes

And that one the next world, not even the dark lord Cthulhu,

Can save him from me, the black hearted Shahkulu.
