Ronin 98
Clearly I see you now Death I am not afraid to look
Where were you when the earth ran red
and a thousand men screamed for you to take them
And you sat on mountaintops with generals
sipping drinks and laughing and staying
out of the afternoon’s oppressive sun
No I do not fear you I welcome you on level ground
as an equal warrior for we will have our feud
No mistake I know the outcome but you know well
I will fight and not yield with every dying breath
until I am forced to accept all that I have done
