I was raised to protect the throne of the king A warrior summoned to slice everything Fighting for years a battle not mine It polished my skills, it made me shine I cannot count the lives I've taken Nor the screams of children I've been slayin' All I remember was the sword I'm swinging Under the rainy sky, I felt like drowning How can I be a hero of my country? When only few of us returns home out of many This has nothing to do with fate and destiny This is clearly a product of a greedy authority I was once a coward, couldn't face the truth Being just a knight, it ruined my youth Wearing this armor symbolizes my dignity I took it off, it sent me to reality. - SHADOWS

A Knight's Roar
I was raised to protect the throne of the king A warrior summoned to slice everything Fighting for years a battle not mine It polished my skills, it made me shine I cannot count the lives I've taken Nor the screams of children I've been slayin' All I remember was the sword I'm swinging Under the rainy sky, I felt like drowning How can I be a hero of my country? When only few of us returns home out of many This has nothing to do with fate and destiny This is clearly a product of a greedy authority I was once a coward, couldn't face the truth Being just a knight, it ruined my youth Wearing this armor symbolizes my dignity I took it off, it sent me to reality. - SHADOWS
