Meaning of "Wrathful Dragon Hau-Hra" by Behexen

The lyrics explore themes of chaos, destruction, and the primal forces of the universe. Hau-Hra and Apep are symbolic of primeval entities that represent disorder, darkness, and the destruction of established order. The speaker seeks to align themselves with these forces, offering a sacrifice as a means of connection and acceptance into the chaotic realm. Through this invocation, they long to become a vessel for destruction, embracing the destructive power of Apep as a means to defy the established norms symbolized by Maat, the ancient Egyptian concept of truth, order, and balance. The imagery of serpent symbolism ties into the idea of rebirth, transformation, and the shedding of old skin to embrace a new, more chaotic existence.
