about

"Pray to War..." was the third original track composed by Scythian when they were a two-piece rehearsal room band. The track appeared on the "Suffering to the Conquered" demo. It was refined for the debut album and was intended as the third track, before being switched with "Ares Guide My Blade" and "Shattered Idols".

lyrics

Pray to war!
Cold submission. Kneel!
Gather the plague of faithful!
The zealous, the fateless... the cleansing begins

Doom brigades
March ever onwards
Badlands made of flesh
Iron savage: kill for honour!

Charge through blood and scattered remains

Gone are they who ruled before us
Order was their lie
Justice found in heartless battle
In seas of spears we die

In sacred conflict, men as gods
Lead armies of attrition
Slaughter now becomes our privilege
Pray to war... the new religion

Purify with death!

Funeral pyres in thousands
Expel the souls of endless dead

Devolved to beasts and hounds of war
They rip and tear asunder
Pain becomes their exaltation
Penitence and thunder

Taint the skies with murder!
Hear curses cast with dying breath!

Silent reek of mass impalement
Harvesters are swarmed
Monuments of carrion burden poisoned earth
No victor lies among them

Purify with death!

Pray to war... Cold Submission
Pray to war... The New Religion
