Silent Gilded Cage (沈黙の鳥籠)

(Intro)
The sky is blue, the world is calm... or so they say.
Kirei na uso ni umoreta.
Inside the shadows, the monsters play.

(Verse 1)
Polished shoes on the marble floor
Deciding fates behind a golden door
They trade the innocence of a child for a price
Cold-blooded hearts, rolling the devil's dice
While you’re freezing in the alley, trying to find some heat
They’re counting billions, comfortable in their seat.

(Verse 2)
Jōkyū kokumin no yūgi.
Mienai basho de tamashii o uru.
Kodomotachi no namida, kane ni kaete.
Jigoku no sata mo, kane shidai darō?
Akuma sae mo furueagaru gōyoku.

(Chorus)
Peace is a lie, itsuwari no heion.
They feast on the weak, owaranai kyōran.
The world is burning, can’t you see the smoke?
Their "justice" is nothing but a cruel joke!
Ubaitore, mamorinuke.
We’re just numbers in their master plan.

(Bridge / Rap Section)
Look at the street, look at the mud
They build their empires with our blood
Taxing the air, taxing the breath
Selling us life while they profit from death.
Concrete no sukima, mogaku hitobito
Kage no naka de, asu o sagashiteiru
Eating the crumbs, sharing the pain
But the dignity in our soul will remain!
You got the crown? We got the soul.
You got the wealth? We got control—
Of the truth that you’re trying to bury deep
While the world is awake, you’re just playing for keep!

(Verse 3)
Doro o susuttemo, tomoshibi wa kesanai.
Scraping for crumbs, but our spirit’s the same.
Semai rodjiura, kogoeru yoru
Kibō wa hikisaka re, genjitsu wa semaru.
But we survive, we endure, we remain.
Their greed is the poison, our hope is the rain.

(Final Chorus)
Peace is a lie, itsuwari no heion.
They feast on the weak, owaranai kyōran.
The world is burning, can’t you see the smoke?
Their "justice" is nothing but a cruel joke!
Higher than the devil, deeper than the sea
Your greed will never set you free!

(Outro)
The lights are bright... but the shadows are long.
We see you.
We’re still here.
Mada ikite iru.
