Yet if you devote your heart to him and stretch out your hands to him
If you put away that sin that is in your hand and allow no evil to dwell in your tent
Then free of fault you will lift up your face
You will stand firm and without fear
You will surely forget your trouble recalling it only as waters gone by
Life will be brighter than noonday and darkness will become like morning
The lyrics to 9.6's song Devotion are heavily influenced by dark themes of worship and ritualism. The opening lines, "Under the moonlight, bitter falls a tear over the face of memories," suggests that this song is about a period of reflection, perhaps after a sacrifice or a ritual. It then goes on to describe the act of cutting flesh as a way of nourishing a sacred fire, highlighting the intense devotion that the singer has for this darkness.
The use of spirits of the air to leave a sign of the rite also suggests a deep connection to a spiritual realm, and the creation of the Lucus stone by stone further highlights the separation between the world of humans and gods. The evocation of Lucifer, the Prince of Dawn and Shining Master of Light, is also indicative of the singer's devotion to a darker path, as Lucifer is often associated with rebellion against the divine.
The repeated use of the phrase "In my devotion" throughout the lyrics serves to emphasize the importance of the singer's dedication to darkness, and the use of powerful symbols such as the sword of Hathoor, the sign of Voor, and the five-edged star add to the intensity of the song as a whole.
Overall, Devotion is a song that explores the themes of darkness, devotion, and ritualism and presents these ideas through evocative and powerful lyrics.
