Mega Ran - Aerith lyrics
[Mega Ran - Aerith lyrics]
I was runnin with a gang
Wreakin havoc state to state
Called AVALANCHE
We were some revolutionaries
Usin every trick in the book
To bring the truth
And nearly got killed on my
Last mission up in Midgar
Set off an explosion, ran but didn't get far
So I'm guessin the reactor blew
The blast knocked me unconscious
And deattached our crew
I awakened on a flower bed up in the slums
On the floor of a church
All covered in grunge thankful to be alive
In need of a shower and not a medic
I get up sore and lightheaded
It was there that I met her
And her name was Aerith
Body wasn't the greatest
Skin wasn't the fairest
Not someone I'd normally be
Interested in gettin with
But somethin 'bout her aura just
Told me she was different
So I, dusted myself off and said hello
Apologized for the inconvenience and
Tried to go but one thing about Aerith
She was a straight shooter
Didn't wait to see if she had
Somethin to say to ya
So immediately pleasantries were cancelled
When she asked who would pay for
The flowers that I trampled
I laughed, and said that I would replace them
Just did a job that I'm
Waitin to get paid from
See I'm a soldier, fightin for freedom
Providin my services to anyone who need 'em
So she came with a plan
Suggested I protect her
Cause there's some bad folks out
There tryin to get her
And before I could ask why
Troopers just passed by
Kicked in the church door, wood and glass fly
Should I help her? My conscience
Said you gotta dog
So I went from a soldier to a bodyguard
So in our travels in the ensuing chapters
Everywhere we went
Somebody was tryin to capture her
So why disaster? What was the
Deal? Yo what's the appeal?
As usual she's nothin but real she was the
Last descendant of an ancient race
Who may or may not hold the
Connection to a sacred place
Called The Promised Land
So this caused a lot of problems man
Everybody wanted it
So they all devised a plan
And if that wasn't enough
Here comes Sephiroth
The meanest, baddest, biggest boss of 'em all
She'd go to the church and
Pray for the solution
But Sephiroth appears, showin no fear
And with one sword stroke, Aerith was killed
I, wish I was like her and said what I feel
I don't know what it was but
There was somethin 'bout her aura
Cause, I haven't felt it since her
And never felt it before her
