[Intro]
I was the light in the chaos, the storm they feared,
Name etched in stone, but the burden stayed near.
Run-on-sight order, shinobi knew my name,
But I carried that weight, never fought for fame.
[Verse 1]
Fastest alive, that yellow flash, death in a blink,
Kunai drop, you’re gone before you even think.
Fourth Ho-Kah-Gay, the village rests in my hands,
Built on sacrifice, blood drips through the sands.
I saw the world burning, wars tearing apart,
Children drafted as weapons, hate carved in their hearts.
I swore my soul would never bow to that fire,
But to guard the next gen, I embraced the pyre.
[Hook]
I’m the flash of a legacy, faster than fate,
Guardian of a village that breeds love and hate.
I gave my breath, my blood, and my throne,
So the seeds of tomorrow wouldn’t die alone.
[Verse 2]
Kushina, my love, in that crimson night,
We bound the beast, sealed the endless fight.
You held our son, whisper soft, then gone,
But through his eyes, I know our dream lives on.
Nine tails raging, the village shook with fear,
I faced the monster’s claw and drew it near.
No hesitation, carved my soul in a seal,
Split life in halves so his pain could heal.
They’ll call me saint, but I bled like a man,
Never perfect, just did all that I can.
If death’s the price to end the cycle of war,
Then bury me smiling — I couldn’t give more.
[Hook]
I’m the flash of a legacy, faster than fate,
Guardian of a village that breeds love and hate.
I gave my breath, my blood, and my throne,
So the seeds of tomorrow wouldn’t die alone.
[Bridge]
Run-on-sight — but that fear was hollow,
You can’t outrun hope, it’s the future they follow.
They’ll remember the flash, but not the scars,
They’ll see the boy rise, reaching past the stars.
[Verse 3]
Naruto, my son, the burden is yours,
Carry the will through the endless wars.
You’ll feel their hate, like I carried their doubt,
But a fire like yours can’t ever burn out.
One day you’ll shine, brighter than me,
A Hokage greater than I could ever be.
I’m just the shadow that cut through the night,
You’re the dawn that will turn all the darkness to light.
[Final Hook]
I’m the flash of a legacy, faster than fate,
Guardian of a village that breeds love and hate.
I gave my breath, my blood, and my throne,
So the seeds of tomorrow wouldn’t die alone.
[Outro]
I was Minato, the Yellow Flash they feared,
But a father, a lover, that’s what I revered.
If they call me a savior, I’ll let it be known —
I was just a man who chose to die for his home.
