battlecry

Nujabes feat.Shing02
lyrics by Shing02

sharp like an edge of a samurai sword
the mental blade cut through flesh and bone
though my mind’s at peace, the world out of order
missing the inner heat, life gets colder
oh yes, i have to find my path
no less, walk on earth, water and fire
the elements compose a magnum opus
my modus operandi is amalgam steel packed tight in micro
chip on my armor a sign of all-pro
the ultimate reward is honor not awards
at odds with the times in wars with no lords, a freelancer
a battle cry of a hawk make a dove fly and a tear dry
wonder why a lone wolf don’t run with a klan
only trust your instincts and be one with the plan

some days, some nights
some live, some die
in the way of the samurai

some fight, some bleed
sun up to sun down
the sons of a battle cry

some days, some nights
some live, some die
in the name of the samurai

some fight, some bleed
sun up to sun down
the sons of a battle cry

a battle cry

เนื้อเรื่องอยู่ในสมัยเอโดะ (EDO) แต่ใช้เพลงฮิพฮอพประกอบ แถมเนื้อร้องแร็พของเพลงนี้ก็แต่งได้เท่ห์ไม่ใช่เล่น
