We are talking a thrash fast song, the longest song of Reign in Blood album, a song featured in the South Park episode Die Hippie, Die. D. X. Ferris said that "when Hanneman wrote the song, he envisioned a scene from a dark street or bloody back alley," and later went on to say that the song "described a banished soul awakened and hungry for vengeance." The song is just about that!
Band:Slayer }{ Song: Raining Blood }{ Album: Reign in Blood
Composer: Jeff Hanneman, Kerry King }{ Year: 1986
Lyrics:
Trapped in purgatory
A lifeless object, alive
Awaiting reprisal
Death will be their acquisition
The sky is turning red
Return to power draws near
Fall into me, the skys crimson tears
Abolish the rules made of stone
Pierced from below, souls of my treacherous past
Betrayed by many, now ornaments dripping above
Awaiting the hour of reprisal
Your time slips away
Raining blood
From a lacerated sky
Bleeding its horror
Creating my structure
Now I shall reign in blood!
