    Horsemen Of the Apocalypse (I.J.L. Collab)

    Horsemen Of the Apocalypse





    Narrator: SmokaJoka
    Antichrist: Illus'Artis
    War: L.I
    Famine: Laureate
    Death: Nib Oswald



    In the book of age...comes the apocalyptic haven
    In the scriptures of The Book....chapter six - revelations
    Translations of the Horsemen have been studied for centuries..
    The antichrist, war, famine, and finally...death and misery..


    Quote Originally Posted by King James Paraphrase

    The skies become darker by the day as lightning tore
    The sky, as the first rider approached the world...on a white horse



    Antichrist:
    Since Ancient Of Days-
    Dreams prophecies unveiling biblical scenes from heavenly to earthly beings
    Revelation giving heed about the wrath of the king of kings.
    No man knows the time or hour when the thief in the night proceeds
    To snatch his people with silence and speed. The left behind in dis-belief
    Conceive this event an unknown catastrophe. Events in the heavens
    An Angel voice stretches, who is worthy to open the scroll of the seven ?
    Debated or questioned, finally the Lion of Judah root of David
    Everyone awaited has revealed only he can take the seal and break it,
    Because of his blood and sacrifice, then after the tribulation takes flight.
    A white horseman on plight believe to be the antichrist, ready to strike.
    With deceiving power, to the earth ..he comes with a crown and bow.
    This spirit causes a crucial blow, he's a cunning foe so no need for arrows.
    Worshipped as a Pharaoh, very clever his choice of weapon
    His high tech deception and he'll come for the right hand or forehead.
    Deny your dead off with the head, nor remorse from this horseman.
    Is this the end, wars rumors of wars starts to sour .......

    Quote Originally Posted by King James Paraphrase

    Earth...divided and conquered...thunder rolls even more
    The second rider...on a blood red horse falls from the sky...for war



    War:
    The sparks of betrayal trigger militant conflict
    The bombs sent spark anger inside the convicts
    A seize to peace as all the good luck’s deceived
    These evil deeds make each man forced to bleed
    My horse proceeds through this vast field ahead
    It reaps of red. No vacancy signs hover death beds
    Their future misled. The mask shields their chances
    A devils dance in battle only leads to failed finance
    I brace my dagger to the dirt in the thick of bloodshed
    Neither side giving in. It escalates far above threats
    This storm will hit markets. Alert all social classes
    No longer the success of democratics or fascists
    Unity has lost existence. Civil disputes disperse
    The enemy is not always foreign. Homeland fleets disperse
    Chaos and destruction. Put an end to reproduction
    The human conclusion has began its main combustion

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
    Rain falls...mud scatters the Earth...betrayal and war are active
    A black horse into the night....his shadow glows in lightning static



    Famine:
    And here I ride proudly on this shadow of death
    To finish what’s left from the horseman in red
    War torn countries are only beauty to me
    As I ravage and plunder, killing the hungry
    Watch food prices sore, whilst you sink to the depths
    The connection lengthens, with each dying breath
    Scarcity of food, higher prices, and famine for all
    Represented by the scale, I balance on my palm
    Necessities hidden, but luxuries readily given
    To those who can afford to pass up poor livin
    I feed off the weak, so this is a real feast
    A buffet of bodies dipped in a side of disease
    Starvation at its peak, even killing cattle and horses
    I pick off the living, like flies on rotting corpses
    My job never finished, my goals never achieved
    Don’t fight you can’t win it, with an army of deceased

    Quote Originally Posted by King James Paraphrase

And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
    Earth cracked..the skies turn blood red all the Horsemen are here..
    Hunger spreads..animals dead..the world's economy severe..
    Rain flooding....lightning turns dark blue and nothing's left..
    A Pale horse sweeping flames under each gallop...bringing death



    Death:
    Pigmented ism drips historical predictions envisioned
    Patristic Christian id twisted into split schisms of fiction
    As cynicism strips conviction away fragment by figment
    A metaphysical figure emerges from this enigma
    The horrifying fourth horseman, a frosty morbid raw aura
    Eyes cauterise sky horizons, two scorching orbs of pure horror
    Caustic flumes ooze from two nostrils gargling noxious blue toxins
    Guttural lung suction rasps fumes, hot blotches of cruor clotting
    Gasping exhumed gospel perfumes and fossils of doomsday prophets
    Epiglottal bloodflow flooding to form warm scarlet concoctions
    The holy holocaust martyr, carcass Lord of the downtrodden
    Rotten corpses form my army, fallen clocks now lay forgotten
    All kneel and hail the Pale Rider, caked in rank flesh and dank veiling
    Exhale as your pain goes silent, taste the tang of stale breath failing
    A sonic boom of Twin Towers, gloomy clouds howl with dark showers
    Flowers plucked out of wombs consumed by Death’s stark hour of power
    Grey spectrums fade to shades of black, ravens peck decaying wreckage
    The wheel hath now come full circle, your burning grave bays and beckons
    Lithe phantom hands clasp the scabbard, divine scythe of primal grandeur
    Brandishing bright white light to shine life's fathomless final answer









    Quote Originally Posted by Interpretations
    White Horse
    Opinions differ on whether the first horseman, riding the white horse represents Christ, the Antichrist, or the False Prophet, but the general consensus of conservative Biblical scholars is that he is the Antichrist, in light of the seemingly peaceful work of the Antichrist seen in the first half of his rule. The lack of arrows is thought to indicate he will conquor without the use of force.
    Red Horse
    The rider of the second horse is generally held to represent War. The red color of his horse represents blood spilt on the battlefield. He carries a sword, which represents battle and fighting.
    Black Horse
    The third horseman, riding the black horse, is popularly called Famine. The black color of the third horse could be a symbol of death and famine. Its rider was holding a scale, which means scarcity of food, higher prices, and famine, likely as a result of the wars from the second horseman. Food will be scarce, but luxuries such as wine and oil will still be readily available.
    Pale Horse
    The fourth horseman (on the pale, or sickly horse, which may be the source of the notion of "pestilence" as a separate horseman) is explicitly named Death. The pale greenish color of the fourth horse means fear, sickness, decay, and death. The imagery of the horses and riders is similar to a passage in Zechariah.

    i'd like to say that very few will tackle what ya did. You guess looked up info and although I disagree with the 'scholars' opinions, the writing is all very good. I wish you would have mentioned the opening of each scroll and that each seal is actually christ making the future happen because well, it was time... lol...
    ANYWAY, every piece was well done, orgininal and what not... its 1:00am so I cant type anything intelligent but i'll the shit when im rested...ive got not links to hit as I havent written anything in 3 months... but yeah

    I can't delete in OM...and if someone used the same quotes....that's most likely because the Bible was used in their's as well...=/.....as for the topic?? I thought it was original....wouldnt know if someone else used the same topic...if so...oh well...

    I used this same topic. Or similar at least. Its in the legends forum somewhere. Anyways... I didnt even say anything bad about the piece or the RM one I compared it too, I just said the were an old crew of mine and thought it was good they'd inspiu]red you guys to write this. I still dont understand quite why my original post was deleted. Very odd. For what its worth, I enjoyed reading this, you've come on a long way since those humble beginnings, Smoka.
