Envelope the world in storms
 After a great reprieve
 Chaos and terror breed in my lies
 I will make you believe
 Master of ancient darkness
 Who lives by the black decree
 Looms over dark, flashing upbursts
 In facilities unseen
 A parallax is forming
 Within the sanctioned sphere
 A parallax is forming
 An oculus to the stars appears
 Ultimate artificer
 You live to spread fear
 Usurp the world in silence
 Quelling defiance
 Low orbit power grids
 Placed by the Cygnus creed
 Were used as a docking point
 That I now oversee
 Lightning ignites the air
 A glimpse of the grand design
 Cumulonimbus cloak
 Sprites explode to the sky
 A parallax is forming
 Within the sanctioned sphere
 A parallax is forming
 An oculus to the stars appears
 Ultimate artificer
 You live to spread fear
 Usurp the world in silence
 Quelling defiance
 And the Reapers fly in
 Soon, the cleansing begins
 And no longer we crawl
 Before we rise, many must fall
 Obelisk to the stars
 Your shadow splits the graves
 Of the ones who lived for you
 They have died in vain
 Obelisk to the stars
 Your shadow meets my eye
 You are obsolete because I am
 What you symbolize
 Cygnus exploits the alliance
 Cygnus demands compliance
 And the Reapers fly in
 Soon, the cleansing begins
 And no longer we crawl
 Before we rise, many must fall
 Low orbit power grids
 Placed by the Cygnus creed
 Ready the power
 Ready the machines
 A parallax is forming
 Within the sanctioned sphere
 A parallax is forming
 An oculus to the stars appears
 Ultimate artificer
 You live to spread fear
 Usurp the world in silence
 Quelling defiance
 Ultimate artificer
