Ronin Lyrics

Everyday is exactly the same
Woke up by memories
And all these twisted dreams

Not sure how I got here
Not sure where I belong
Though on thing is certain
I've survived through it all

Still continue on
Never try to cage the beast
For it's what sets you free
Rely only on instinct
For it's what sets you free

The blood of thousands are on my hands
But they deserved it
They fucking deserved it
I set them free

I'm still here
I go where I wanna go
I see what I want to see
Always on the run
I go where I wanna go
I see what I want to see
But I'll never forget my loyalty

Never try to cage the beast
For it's what sets you free
Rely only on instinct

The blood of thousands are on my hands
But they deserved it
They fucking deserved it
I set them free

I'm still here
Everyday is exactly the same
Woke up by the pain felt through all these years
I've died a thousand times

This is my burden
This rage is my savior
This rage is my cure
This rage is my saviour
This rage is my cure
This rage is my enemy
It is how I endure
