[Intro – clean guitar + distant bell]
Cold steel in a paper sky,
My shadow moves when I don’t try
[Verse 1]
Every scar is a promise kept,
Every vow is a soul I’ve bled,
They carved my name in hollow breath—
Now the blade remembers what I said
[Pre-Chorus – rising melody]
If I fall, I fall forward,
If I break, I break the chain,
Hear my pulse in the spirit storm—
I won’t drown in your rain
[Chorus – melodic power]
I CUT THROUGH FATE, I BURN THE NIGHT,
MY HEART IGNITES IN SILVER LIGHT,
THE SKY CRACKS OPEN WHEN I FIGHT—
MY NAME IS CARVED IN THE BLADE I RAISE!
I CUT THROUGH FEAR, I BITE THE PAIN,
MY SCREAM IS FIRE IN THE FALLING RAIN,
THE WORLD GOES QUIET WHEN I STAND—
THIS IS THE EDGE OF MY FLAME!
[Verse 2]
White mask laughing in my head,
Every whisper wants me dead,
If I’m the monster that they dread—
I’ll be the last thing that they see instead
[Pre-Chorus 2]
If I lose, I lose my past,
If I win, I break the law,
Every chain that binds my soul—
Feels my pressure when I draw
[Chorus – heavier guitars]
I CUT THROUGH FATE, I BURN THE NIGHT,
MY HEART IGNITES IN SILVER LIGHT,
THE SKY CRACKS OPEN WHEN I FIGHT—
MY NAME IS CARVED IN THE BLADE I RAISE!
I CUT THROUGH FEAR, I BITE THE PAIN,
MY SCREAM IS FIRE IN THE FALLING RAIN,
THE WORLD GOES QUIET WHEN I STAND—
THIS IS THE EDGE OF MY FLAME!
[Bridge – Hollow voice layered, slower tempo]
Give me the blade, give me the fall,
Give me the fear you can’t outrun,
If I become what you despise—
I’ll still protect the ones I love
[Breakdown – whispered → scream build]
Spirits shake…
The air is screaming my name…
The blade remembers who I am—
[Final Chorus – full scream + double kick drums]
BANKAI—KŌGETSU NO KYŌGA!!
I CUT THROUGH FATE, I BURN THE NIGHT,
MY SOUL ERUPTS IN BLINDING LIGHT,
THE HEAVENS SPLIT WHEN I IGNITE—
MY NAME IS CARVED IN THE BLADE I RAISE!
I CUT THROUGH FEAR, I BITE THE PAIN,
MY SCREAM IS FIRE IN THE FALLING RAIN,
THE WORLD GOES QUIET WHEN I STAND—
THIS IS THE EDGE OF MY FLAME!
[Outro – echoing bell + reverb scream]
“Bankai…”
