Nuriel, an angel in Jewish mythology, translates as "Fire of the Lord" and is the angel responsible for hailstorms.
In Jewish legend, Moses encountered Nuriel in the 2nd heaven, when he issues from the side of Chesed (Mercy), Nuriel manifests in the form of an eagle, an eagle that, when issuing from the side of Geburah (Strength), is Uriel.
In the Syriac Book of Protection, Nuriel is characterized as a "spellbinding power" and is grouped with Michael, Shamshiel, Seraphiel, and other great angels. According to the Zohar Nuriel governs Virgo. He is 300 parasangs (approx. 5.6 km) tall and has an army of 50 myriads of angels (= 500,000) "all fashioned out of water and fire." The height of Nuriel is exceeded only by the Erelim, by the watchers, by Af and Hemah, and of course by Metatron, who is the tallest hierarch in heaven. In gnostic lore, Nuriel is one of seven subordinates to Jehuel, prince of fire. Nuriel is also effective as a charm for warding off evil. His name is found engraved on oriental and Hebrew amulets, notably those worn by pregnant women.
I saw you dance in the flames,
But somehow you walked out unscathed.
Slip down your way through the minefield,
By a foot and slit Achilles' heels.
Kissing curves and time bombs
Blowing your mind without going off.
Of nine, you got one life left to go.
This time you won't need to worry at all.
Cause this is your surefire shot, don't miss.
Under the gun, but for once on the other side of it.
Taking now what you want and it's yours...
for the taking.
Like a war won without waging.
Just when I thought that your luck was spent,
You dodge another bullet.
Count your blessings, even those are second guessing.
Cause of nine there's one life left to go.
This time you won't need to worry at all
Cause this is your surefire shot, don't miss.
Under the gun, but for once on the other side of it.
Taking now what you want.
It's your surefire shot, don't miss
Under the gun, but for once you're a force to be reckoned with.
Taking now what you want and it's yours.
Knocked down the odds stacked against you.
Before you sound off that surrender,
Size up the forces against you
Before you drop down to your knees.
Believe me, I can say with certainty.
Cause this is your surefire shot, don't miss.
Under the gun, but for once on the other side of it.
Taking now what you want.
It's your surefire shot, don't miss
Under the gun, but for once you're a force to be reckoned with.
Taking now what you want (believe me)
Taking now what you want (believe me)
