- Y_Y 1y agoWoke up this mornin’, sun blazin’ in my eyes Them old gods gone missin’, no prayers, no alibis Temple doors shut tight, statues turned to stone Aten’s in the sky now, and I’m worshippin’ alone
- BrenBarn 1y agoI went out for a walk to sit down by the Nile, and fish a little bit and just kick back a while. But the foreman comes and says the boss has won the bid on the contract to construct the pharaoh's pyramid. So now I gotta spend my days out working for the man, pushing giant blocks of stone across the burning hot sand. I don't see why us peasants got to go and do this just to help some bigshot's stupid heart impress Anubis.
