Lyrics
Find another songSon of swordsman, born a warrior
Insubordinate tempting fate
And in the shadow of the rising sun
He would duel with the great
From the master to the temple
Where this boy would come of age
In the forest he would hone his skills
And the trunks would feel his rage
Earth, knowing the small by way of the great
One goes from shallow to the deep
Water conforms, into the shape
Shape of the vessel, square or round
Fight or die immortal Ronin and Samurai
Into battle, his blade held high
See your demise, you can see it in his eyes
Will you fight or die immortal Ronin and Samurai?
Into battle, his blade held high
See your demise, you can see it in his eyes
Left his village and his kinsmen
Walked along the path of war
Challenged several times and answered all
Something never seen before
Draw the blade, adopt the stance
It's a swift and deadly dance
And his foes who promised certain doom
Really never had a chance
Fire, matters of war, scale large to small
Careful consideration
Wind, schools of martial arts, strive on your path
Point of view of the straight and true
Fight or die immortal Ronin and Samurai
Into battle, his blade held high
See your demise, you can see it in his eyes
Will you fight or die immortal Ronin and Samurai?
Into battle, his blade held high
See your demise, you can see it in his eyes
The way he would follow the way of the warrior
In the school of two swords, he would triumph
Away from the battlefield on to a lonely cave
Where the book of five rings would be written
The void, hard to define, the inner depths
Terms of the surface entryway
Having attained, rhythm of war
When the time comes to strike and score
Fight or die immortal Ronin and Samurai
Into battle, his blade held high
See your demise, you can see it in his eyes
Will you fight or die immortal Ronin and Samurai?
Into battle his blade held high
See your demise, you can see it in his eyes
