Analysis of Mummified



You were so wise and strong, my king.
The ultimate ruler of everything.
So, prepared for your death, you did.
You constructed this giant pyramid.

So, now you get to rejoin your wife
Here, now in the afterlife.
But one day, may you rise from the sand
And come back to rule all the land.
