Lyrics

[Intro - Atmospheric with Japanese flute]
[Heavy breathing, running footsteps]
[Verse 1]
Can't catch my breath, ain't got time to think
Blood on my blade, watch it drip and sink
Feel that chill crawl up my spine
Clock's tickin' down, ain't my time to die
Fuck the rules of fate, I break 'em all
Hear them spirits scream, watch 'em fall
Through these temple grounds, past the gates
Raw survival shit, can't hesitate
[Chorus]
Run until my legs give way (Way!)
Black force on my trail each day (Day!)
Can't shake it off my back (Back!)
Leaving bloody footprints on the track
Run until my legs give way (Way!)
Death won't let me get away (Away!)
Can't shake it off my back (Back!)
Leaving bloody footprints on the track
[Verse 2]
Steel in my grip, sweat upon my face
Heart's beating fast, keeping up the pace
Ancient spirits cry, they know what's up
When that darkness comes, shit gets rough
Split-second moves, gotta stay ahead
One wrong step means I'm fucking dead
Honor means jack when you're on the run
Survival mode till the day is done
[Bridge]
[Traditional Japanese instruments build up]
失われた魂 (Lost souls)
運命から逃げる (Running from fate)
[Intense guitar build]
[Solo]
[Shredding guitar with trap beats]
[Verse 3]
Hell's at my heels, getting too damn close
Burned all my bridges, that's how it goes
Path of the blade wasn't meant for this
Now every breath could be my last kiss
Ancestors watch as I break the code
Ancient laws got me down this road
No time for prayer, no time to think
Just run and fight till my spirit sinks
[Chorus - with intensified backing track]
Run until my legs give way (Way!)
Black force on my trail each day (Day!)
Can't shake it off my back (Back!)
Leaving bloody footprints on the track
Run until my legs give way (Way!)
Death won't let me get away (Away!)
Can't shake it off my back (Back!)
Leaving bloody footprints on the track
[Outro]
[Distorted screams fade into traditional Japanese flute]
[Sound of running footsteps fading]
