[Intro] Ash on my tongue Blood on the snow Hands in the dirt (Ready? Go!) [Verse 1] Face wrapped up Eyes stay red Footprints silent Walk with the dead Old steel hums On my hip, that weight Sworn to the code I don’t break, I break Dragons in the smoke Scales in the smog Cut through fakes Like I’m splitting a log City on chains All teeth, no soul I’m a storm in straw sandals Out for gold hearts Demons in suits Ink on the leash Selling our air Bottled like grief Sky turned black From the things they sell Kick that gate Let it rain from hell (hey!) [Chorus] Ninjas in the dark, samurai in daylight Warriors together, we don’t run, we stage fights Oni in the eyes of the ones who rebel We rise, we ride, we Rising from hell Take back our earth Let nature rise again Roots through the concrete Cracking every chain Money is the devil, same story they tell We rise, we ride, we Rising from hell [Verse 2] Fast tongue twist Blade spit, cut greed Whole clan move quick Like a thought, like need Drugs in the veins of the block, that spell Turn kids to ghosts Before they say farewell I see claws On the hands of kings Paper crowns burn When the fire sings Temple in my chest Drum going rat-tat Can’t buy this breath Can’t tax that Oni mask on When I face that crowd Truth so sharp Every lie bleeds out Earthquake step When we march, we yell If heaven won’t answer We’ll rise from hell (woah) [Chorus] Ninjas in the dark, samurai in daylight Warriors together, we don’t run, we stage fights Oni in the eyes of the ones who rebel We rise, we ride, we Rising from hell Take back our earth Let nature rise again Roots through the concrete Cracking every chain Money is the devil, same story they tell We rise, we ride, we Rising from hell [Bridge] Sky has fallen Hear that crack Still we’re calling Take it back Forest breathing Over steel Demons leaving We don’t kneel (hey!) [Chorus] Ninjas in the dark, samurai in daylight Warriors together, we don’t run, we stage fights Oni in the eyes of the ones who rebel We rise, we ride, we Rising from hell Take back our earth Let nature rise again Roots through the concrete Cracking every chain Money is the devil, same story they tell We rise, we ride, we Rising from hell

rap, High-BPM trap-metal hybrid, male vocals, relentless double-time drums and distorted 808s, shakuhachi and koto stabs between bars. Verses are breathless double-time rap, hook explodes with shouted gang vocals and wide stereo chants. Occasional reverse-cymbal swells and sub drops to mark transitions, mix keeps vocal crisp over a vicious, grinding low end.
