[verse 1]

Pass the old county, straight into the meadow

Sword to my side, run faster than my shadow

Faster than most cats, not ready for below

Samurai’s chasing, he wants my life to over

Instincts told me to run, can't go any slower

Draped of black cloth with a red dragon crest

Clock points 115, just taking a rest

Ran into the jungle it was full of pest

Is this another test, will this count in my diploma

He followed my trail, he followed death's aroma

Look around to see gas nearing us

I know he has no mercy but can we discuss

And rough terrain's throwing me under the bus

And knees in pain feel like they got rust

Death seemed to be the only route

Or should I turn around and takе on this joust

My inner thoughts fightin, my mind's full of doubt

Kill a man or run tail between my legs and shout

Gas gеtting closer the longer it goes

But I still run hoping I escape my foe

Gotta stay calm and collected like a water flow

No disturbance in this second of peace

If I lose mind, I might be dead meat

While a samurai wants launch my body to sea


[verse 2]

Climb up a short cliff while I can still run

He looked at me alive, knew he had fun

Runnin for my life and his presence stung

While flashbacks of my childhood won't let me go straight

By-pass these feelings, don't have time to carry weight

Gas closin in what path shall I take

Asthma attack, can I even catch a break

But a song played out from a quiet lake

Calling me for my name, so I had to jump in

But the samurai is still chasing me so I start to swim

The song loses focus but I knew it was something

At this rate, wonder if my end is even coming

Reach the other side of the lake, start running

Finally out of the jungle, my heart's just pumpin

Gas closing in on us, all this mean nothing

Am I searchin for somethin


[Verse 3]

End of the cliff and we're both surrounded by gas

The woods broke our bodies like shattered glass

I begged him "Samurai-San spare me please"

He kept quiet in this situation, he knew of his dead

Said "your actions of treason don't come cheap"

So say your last words before it's over for we"

"Why does it have to be like this we can work together

"If one of us die, the other will wither

Let's make it out alive, look for eachother

I have a family, can't leave them, too poor

My wife and daughter, somethin I miss for sure"

Took him a while to understand, his body sore

Pain convinced him, his clothes were torn

So we decided to stay away from the dead

So I turn around, jacked his sword and cut off his head

He's dead
