You've seen right through distorted eyes You know you had to learn The execution of your mind You really had to turn The race is run, the book is read The end begins to show The truth is out, the lies are old But you don't want to know Nobody will ever let you know When you ask the reasons why They just tell you that you're on your own Fill your head all full of lies The people who have crippled you You wanna see them burn The gates of life have closed on you And there's just no return You're wishing that the hands of doom Could take your mind away And you don't care if you don't see Again the light of day Nobody will ever let you know When you ask the reasons why They just tell you that you're on your own Fill your head all full of lies You bastards Where can you run to? What more can you do? No more tomorrow, life is killing you Dreams turn to nightmares, heaven turns to Hell Burnt out confusion, nothing more to tell, yeah Everything around you, what's it coming to? God knows as your dog nose, bog, blast all of you Sabbath bloody sabbath, nothing more to do Living just for dying, dying just for you, yeah

A letra da música foi escrita por Ozzy Osbourne após Geezer Butler contar que viu uma figura negra ao lado da cama, depois que o livro de bruxaria que ele havia deixado na estante desapareceu.
O riff principal da canção é uma variação retardada do tema principal de “Mars, the Bringer of War”, de Gustav Holst, e inclui a quinta diminuta, conhecida como “diabolus in musica”.
A versão demo da faixa aparece na compilação de Ozzy Osbourne “The Ozzman Cometh”, contendo um verso extra com vocais adicionais de Ozzy antes da ponte.
“Black Sabbath” foi uma das primeiras músicas do heavy metal a usar a quinta diminuta, um intervalo que passou a ser associado a conotações satânicas no gênero.
