Nujabes, Shing02 - Battlecry lyrics
[Nujabes, Shing02 - Battlecry lyrics]
Yeah, 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 microchip
On my armor a sign of all-pro
The ultimate reward is honor, not awards
At odds with the times in wards 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 clan
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 battlecry
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 battlecry, battlecry
Look, just the air around him
An aura surrounding the heir apparent
He might be a peasant but
Shine like grand royalty
He to the people and land, loyalty
We witness above all to hear this
Sea sickness in the ocean of wickedness
Set sail to the sunset no second guessing
Far east style with the spirit of wild west
The "quote-unquote" code stands the test of
Time for the chosen ones to find the best of
Noble minds that ever graced the face of
A hemisphere with no fear, fly over
The blue yonder where the sky meets the sea
And eye meets no eye and boy meets world
And became a man to serve the world
To save the day, the night, and the girl too
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 battlecry
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 battlecry, battlecry
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 microchip
On my armor a sign of all-pro
The ultimate reward is honor, not awards
At odds with the times in wards 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 clan
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 battlecry
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 battlecry, battlecry
Look, just the air around him
An aura surrounding the heir apparent
He might be a peasant but
Shine like grand royalty

Some fight, some bleed sun up to sun down
The sons of a battlecry
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 battlecry, battlecry
