I have set foot on the first step Into heaven, yet wasn't ready to enter it From death has revenge been resurrected It's time to cut the tie to my past, I have severed it A Samurai died and his successor's a revenant From the best I have descended Into a legend ascended Weapon in hand, I'm unhesistant When it lands in your neck I'll split your head from the rest of you An undead has just bested you Khan, I'll never surrender But Seppukku I'll let you do When you battle I'll be present on the day I can take I watched this our entire empire fell In my hand is the blade That I raise in defense as a vital extension of myself I am one with the blade I wield And my emotion contained, I've shielded I've not forgotten the bloodline I've lost Honor the fallen, for honor never falls The sky grows dark with their arrows The one emotion that's become scarce's hope But this fire lights up the night, spare no Mongol Mongrel, if you wanna fight fair, don't What's a sword without a master? What's a kingdom built on brittle stilts If corruption should overcast us? Justice is a blade and I'm the hilt And I know there's a time to save, a time to kill But a life you take may be replaced With the new life you've built So does the cost of the blood lost show you worth Even if it means leavin' a tradition to burn I am one with the blade I wield And my emotion contained, I've shielded I've not forgotten the bloodline I've lost Honor the fallen, for honor never falls Whose is their house of honor? For I am not its host I know no code of honor 'Cause I am nothing but its ghost I am one with the blade I wield And my emotion contained, I've shielded I've not forgotten the bloodline I've lost Honor the fallen, for honor never falls
