Slayer - Final Six Lyrics






Surrender your cloth and collar priest
There's no need for your beliefs in war
This is a place for heathens
Into that darkness fires illuminate
Grotesquely swollen by the heat
A half-burned corpse hanging naked
A stream is poisoned by the dead
I ghostly light, debris of war

Lead us to the brink of extinction
The time has come for you now to finish it

What has man become a funeral pyre
Now that judgement's near prepare to die
Need to suffer lust for power mindless hunger never win

Final six is here the cycle ends

I have come for you my child
And the gift I bring is murder
Sumarian death in eastern winds
Face the father of your terror
Godless warheads wait to breath
Set their sights on history
Distant silhouettes of the dead
Blacken face screams through the ashes

Lead us to the brink of extinction
The time has come for you now to finish it

What has man become a funeral pyre
Now that judgement's near prepare to die
Need to suffer lust for power mindless hunger never win

Final six is here the cycle ends

Mankind owes his pain to hell
As he brings the end upon himself
Arms rising from the ashes
In the ghastly light of human flares
Berith soldiers capture souls
Shadows of human sacrifice
The return of everything that's dead
A cryptic promise from the heavens

Lead us to the brink of extinction
The time has come for you now to finish it

Dead flowers for a faceless dead
A city engulfed by the smell of the death
Bodies piled beneath the mist
Walking dead among the living
The world will bleed while horseman ride
Now that God has wept for Judas
Days are numbered find your grave
Forever trying to escape to hell

  16. S.... A....

    Is there a reason why I can't find this song on spotify, what the hell lol.

  17. K.... M....

    Yo why is this not on Spotify? It’s literally the best song off of this album

  18. o.... ....

    A realy rare tracks such as "Ice Titan", "Simple Aggression" & "Assassin" are missing in this compilation.

  19. R.... W....

    discovering Slayer with this track sets the bar so high I dont know if I can come down

  20. J.... G....

    First time Ive heard this shred. They did a proper mix on this song. The sound is awesome.

  21. M.... G....

    Whoever went to a Slayer concert and kept their head screwed on I salute you! Don't go crazy now, there's no God and there's no upside down 999. Just time, education, skin, bones, dirt and bugs.

  22. S.... &....

    Im 50. I appreciate Slayer more today than i did thru the ages of 15-40. Never forget hearing Angel of Death on WPRB Out of Princeton U (College Station). It was the most badass song i had ever heard. Hearing Lombardo go off on drums? It was 100% pure unadulterated metal mayhem. It made Larz Ulrich obsolete overnight. And here i am 35yrs later and 11 Slayer Concerts later still banging my head to the best music ever written on this hell hole called Earth!

    S.... &....

    Yup me too, also 50. Got into them in 83.

    S.... &....

    I'm also 50 and I couldn't agree more. Funny enough I also heard them first on a college station out of Rochester NY. That song was Chemical Warfare and I was hooked. Seen them 3 times in the last 2 years in 3 different parts of the country. 9 times in total.

  23. J.... R....

    i got some punisher vibes

    In memory SLAYER

  26. Z.... M....

    06-06-1980

  27. �.... �....

    the SLAYEST.......the best.......

  28. L.... _....

    Intro is amazing
    The rest is meh in my opinion

    L.... _....

    Yes Slayer has some great intros & instrumentals to almost all their songs - but I don't really like the lyrics or the damn yelling...too weird - I bet it helped feed serial killers & murderers with farts and spread fictitious ass kissing story telling.

    L.... _....

    I like Tom's rapping like rhythm.

    L.... _....

    I like the whole song

  29. A.... Z....

    by far my favorite slayer song!

  30. F.... C....

    Can't find this on Spotify.

  31. K.... m....

    Punisher War Zone anyone?

  32. 1.... ....

    Jesus... When I hear this song I see mankind destroying itself: massive environmental pollution, war, child abuse, animal slaughter, torture, destruction of the nature... Everytime I hear this song it gives me fucking goossbumps.

  33. B.... E....

    🤘😎🤘

  34. D.... N....

    I love the "christ illusion" album it has some of my favorite Slayer songs, like:
    Jihad
    Eyes of the insane
    Cult
    Final six.
    I consider all of these songs classics. A truly underrated album.

    D.... N....

    I believe Final six is one of the most underrated Slayer songs. Ive always wanted to see this song played live

    D.... N....

    Flesh storm is another great song

    D.... N....

    Black Serenade deserves some love, too

    D.... N....

    Fuck n a !!! Brother disciple the 4th track forgot the name and fuck payback wasn't bullshitin man I bout melted the CD cause it never stopped spinning

  35. B.... E....

    🤘😎🤘

  36. A.... J....

    The second punisher movie, when this song came on I hadn’t heard it before...but I just knew it was SLAYER!!!

  37. M.... J....

    This song is so good. Can't believe it was just a bonus track; can definitely see why it won a Grammy.

  38. T.... M....

  46. P.... B....

    Sorry. Slayer is average at best nowadays. Maybe the most influential metal band for multiples, but this is so forced, and the solos are terrible

    P.... B....

    Forced? I agree, but solos are terrible? Didn't they always made those kind of terrible solos? That's what makes them SLAYER.

    P.... B....

    Most of the terrible solos are terrible

  47. 1.... ....

    Holy shit this song is fucking perfect

    I'm 24 and the first slayer song I was exposed to was cult when I was 11 in the 6th grade like right when the album came out and in less than a month later I had almost every lyric to most songs memorized and I still listen to those songs today. Dead skin mask black magic disciple cult tormentor seasons in the abyss fuckin postmortem god I can't even pick a favorite killing fields hell awaits south of heaven skeletons of society they are all fuckin amazing

    N.... F....

    see Slayer 3 of these covers and LP's at my channel! \m/

  57. R.... .....

    Slayer is the shadow of classical music...and you have to have that.

  58. R.... g....

    i love slayer but i think they should just go back to drop E tuning

  59. 1.... ....

    Omg this is fucking brilliant!!

  60. C.... C....

    queeeee grupoooooo mi diossssssssssssssssssssss

  61. C.... t....

    release disease u councils die

  62. T.... M....

    Release the damn thing to ITunes. I love listening to it on vinyl, but wish it was more readily available.

  63. R.... ....

    This song is about the arrival of the sixth sun in the Aztec calendar, when a sudden expansion of collective unconscious makes humanity realize its essential nature as interdimensional beings of light. Jeff was a crazed genius. He expanded on the theme in World Painted Blood. Jeff was a terrific musical storyteller. Kerry is a ranter, sometimes brilliant, but always tiring after 2-3 songs.

    R.... ....

    Robgoren yes all your words rang true to me
    thank you for sharing your brilliant opinion🎸🎼
    😘👰〰💋💋

    R.... ....

    Sounds more like a Araya song

    R.... ....

    Robgoren What are you for real?

  64. M.... O....

    God has good taste in music!

  65. J.... d....

    Slayer maior banda de thrash metal do mundo!!

  66. T.... ....

    good lord this sucks ass lmao

  67. V.... F....

    Dave's drums are insane!!

    V.... F....

    Dave, come back to SLAYER!!

  68. O.... S....

    Dave kills on drums and the rest are just jealous.

    O.... S....

    Lars kills on the drums 👍👹👹🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘😂😂😂

  69. l.... f....

    \.../ \.../

  70. A.... N....

    yeah it was 2008 grammy's award best metal performance.

  71. R.... P....

    no, GOD create slayer

  72. D.... ....

    It's funny how the bonus track is the best one.

    D.... ....

    cymeusz I think that belongs to World Painted Blood

    D.... ....

    Cult and Jihad are better

    D.... ....

    @Pauluzz99 nah, theyre good but not as good as this right here

    D.... ....

    @Pauluzz99 More like Jihad and Consfearacy. Consfearacy rules.

    D.... ....

    nah, cult and flesh storm are the best

  73. �.... ....

    охуенно

  74. D.... F....

    É Slayer porraa!!!!!!!

  75. B.... S....

    "I have come for you, my child, and the gift I bring is murder!"

  76. Y.... ....

    I just wonder why did Slayer changed Christ Ilusion's cover?

    Y.... ....

    The original was banned in India

    Y.... ....

    Daniel Petruccelli Israel they didn't, it's all these ppl Christian ppl at that who got offended so they had to change it somehow it sux but whatever fuck em is what I say my dude or chick

    Y.... ....

    the art content on the album cover wasnt accepted. too anti christian artwork. plus lyrics was too graphic. so they pulled ads off bus benches in india and elsewhere

    Y.... ....

    To be honest I like the alternative cover better. It's more ominous, which fits the vibe of most of the songs on Christ Illusion. The original would've gone great with Reign in Blood or what have you. But the alternative with the hand and hole in it is so badass looking for me. It's also more subtle. I like to think the hole is actually an eye.

  77. O.... G....

    Que chingue a su madre él América equipo de amanerados :v

    O.... G....

    +Cristian Abel es una tradición bien vergas :v

  78. B.... v....

    this is religion!!!!!!! SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

  82. M.... ....

    How the fuck can their solos suck SO bad?

    M.... ....

    How the fuck can you suck so bad?????

    M.... ....

    It's part of the esthetic of their music.

    M.... ....

    Bonus track solos

    M.... ....

    @***** 👍

    M.... ....

    you have to be a connoisseur to appreciate them

  83. t.... ....

    every slayer song sounds so angry and furious-love IT!!

  84. F.... B....

    Final six?Are we heading into the end days perhaps.This song I believe is about biblical prophecy.

    F.... B....

    Freddie Bear Yeah, it's about the apocalypse.

    F.... B....

    The Bible is the end of days dumbss

    Whenever someone tells me to grow up because of the music I listen to, I ask them what they listened to as a kid and young adult ... then ask them id the still like their named artist. They always day yes. Then it usually dawns on them.

    a.... h....

    @moremetalthanyou71 ok

    a.... h....

    no. Slayer has a lot of anti-religious stuff(note: not anti-Christian), but it's anti-any religion. The members have stated in interviews they're not satanic. It's all done just to shock people
