Samurai
Epic Struggles and Unspoken Desires: Samurai's Poetic Battle
Lyrics
We spent the night fighting the good fight
We spent the night fighting for a just cause or moral principle.
The things I do you don't like
Actions I take are displeasing to you.
Are getting to you
Your emotions are affected by my actions.
So I throw my hands up
In frustration or surrender, I raise my hands.
I throw 'em up
Repetition emphasizing surrender or giving up.
I give up
An expression of total surrender or resignation.
I give up
Reiteration of giving up, potentially emphasizing difficulty.
I give in
Emphasizing further submission or yielding.
I give in
Reiteration of giving in, emphasizing a point of compromise.
But I'm not gonna say what I don't really mean
Commitment to honesty and sincerity in communication.
And I'm not gonna take what I don't really need
Commitment to only taking what is truly necessary.
If it's you that I'm fighting for
Expressing dedication to someone in a conflict.
I'd say it's more than worth it
Stating that the effort or struggle is valuable.
And I'm not gonna do what I don't wanna be
Refusal to engage in actions contrary to personal desires.
And I don't believe what I don't really see
Expressing skepticism unless personally witnessed.
If it's you that I'm writing for
Writing or creating for the sake of a significant other.
I insist it must be perfect
Insisting on perfection in the creative process for the significant other.
So let me protect you
Expressing a commitment to protect the significant other.
I'll never let you down
Promise to never disappoint or betray.
I'll never let you down
Reiteration of the commitment to reliability.
Maybe we could start a life
Suggesting the possibility of building a life together.
One where we sleep out under the stars
Desire for a simple and romantic life, possibly outdoors.
I could really use a change
Expressing a need for change in the current situation.
Maybe we should start a fire and walk away
Suggesting the idea of starting anew by creating a metaphorical fire and walking away from the past.
Walk away
Repetition of the idea of walking away, potentially emphasizing decisiveness.
Walk away
Continued emphasis on the act of walking away.
Walk away
Reiteration of the decision to walk away.
But I'm not gonna say what I don't really mean
Repetition of the commitment to sincerity in communication.
And I'm not gonna take what I don't really need
Reiteration of the commitment to taking only what is necessary.
If it's you that I'm fighting for
Reaffirming dedication to someone in a conflict.
I'd say it's more than worth it
Reiteration of the value of the effort or struggle.
And I'm not gonna do what I don't wanna be
Refusal to engage in actions contrary to personal desires.
And I don't believe what I don't really see
Expressing skepticism unless personally witnessed.
If it's you that I'm writing for
Writing or creating for the sake of a significant other.
I insist it must be perfect
Insisting on perfection in the creative process for the significant other.
