Verse I
You asked me why I'm doing all this?
But even if I told you why
I doubt very strongly that the knowledge would change anything at all
But let's say I take the time to explain it to you
What do you think would happen then?
Verse II
My goal is to fulfill the dream
Even Jiraya sensei was unable to achieve
What I want is to create peace
And bring about justice
Chorus
Oh I see that is noble of you
That would be justice
However what about my family, my friends, my village?
They suffered the same fate as this village
At the hands of you hidden leaf ninja
Bridge I
How's it fair to let only you people
Preach about peace and justice?
Once the land of fire and the hidden leaf
Had grown too big to protect the national interests
They forced feudal clans to wage war against each other
And profited from it
Bridge II
Otherwise the people of the villages would've starved
As it happened our little nation and its villages
Became the battlefield where the great nations waged through war
Each time they did our nation was ravaged and laid to waste
Verse III
After many such battles the great nations stabilized
But our smaller nation suffered and it barely recovered
You and I are both seeking the very same thing
We both want to achieve the peace that Jiraya sensei envisioned
Chorus II
You and I are the same
We're both motivated by our desire for peace and justice
The justice that I have delivered against the leaf village
It's no different from what you are trying to do to me
Bridge III (Symphonic Rise)
Everyone feels the same pain in losing something dear
You and I both have experienced that same pain
You strive for your justice
And I strive for mine
Bridge IV
We're both just ordinary men
Driven to seek vengeance in the name of justice
And if comes call vengeance justice
Such justice will only breed further vengeance
And trigger a vicious cycle of hatred
Chorus III (Epic Choir)
Right now we live in such a cycle
I know the past and can foretell our future
It is the same as our history
So we believe that human beings simply cannot understand each other
And they never will
Outro
The shinobi world is ruled by hatred and hatred alone
So Naruto, how would you confront this hatred
In order to create peace?
I want to know what your answer is
