[Intro — spoken, playful, clapping a rhythm]
Nah nah nah—
Wake up, wake up!
Swords don’t sleep, baby!
[Verse 1 — bouncy, swagger-filled]
Hear that shing when I draw my steel?
That ain’t noise—that’s how I feel
Left one sings, right one replies
Metal talkin’, never lies
I don’t count steps, I don’t need prayer
I let the rhythm take me there
When Titans stomp, I don’t retreat
I match their pulse with my feet
[Pre-Chorus — cheeky]
You hear drums?
That’s cute, my friend
My blades been banging since way back when
[Chorus — infectious, chantable]
Clang-clang, hear my babies speak
Tick-tick, death keepin’ time to me
Spin-spin, yeah, I let ’em fly
Beat drop when the swords go hi!
Clang-clang, swing it wide
Every fight’s a dance inside
You bring the roar, I bring the beat
My swords, my babies, move my feet
[Verse 2 — faster, cockier]
I don’t need fire, don’t need glow
Just sharp ideas and tempo
One-two-cut, sidestep grin
If you blink once—
I already win
They say “Khalil, you joke too much”
I say “Relax, I’ve got the touch”
Laugh while I fight, smile while I spin
Joy’s a weapon—
Let it in
[Pre-Chorus — mock serious]
Other folks sing to calm the night
I sing to start the fight
[Chorus — bigger, clapping joins]
Clang-clang, hear my babies cry
Sweet little song before goodbye
Slice-slice, yeah, that’s my jam
Steel percussion, thank you ma’am
Clang-clang, don’t be shy
Dance with death, don’t ask me why
If it’s loud, fast, sharp, and sweet
That’s my kind of harmony
[Bridge — spoken, grinning]
You see, when the swords love you back?
That’s when life makes sense.
[Final Chorus — wild, celebratory]
Clang-clang, one last round
Hear my rhythm hit the ground
Party don’t stop, blades don’t lie
Parteh parteh till we die!
[Outro — laughing, breathless]
Heh—
See?
Now that’s music.
