A code of law that will never truly be outfaced the way of life for this ancient warrior race
By bushido you will learn to hold up your head and by this code you will earn and cherish your blades
To live your life in accordance with the warrior way to live a life to prepare yourself for death
A creed that will last for as long as the stars edged down into the fleshy tablets of our hearts

You live to serve You live to spill the blood of your enemies to carry out your lords decree
You master of the blade A slash will merely grace the skin while a true cut spreads guts to the winds
War! We're bread for war!
War! We live for war! Forevermore!

To cut your foes from head to toe dismembering their limbs to wield the sword with steady hands and calm in your mind
Those who live by the way of the sword need never fear the void to die on the battlefield or at their own hand in seppuku

To lose a battle yet maintain a hold of your life for the warrior there is no greater disgrace
Only way to maintain honour is to take your own life open up the belly in ritualistic suicide
The blood is flowing and the soul is being set free cutting one's own flesh without ever showing the pain
A flash of steel  meant to sever the head now suspended from the neck by a shred of flesh

To lay down your life when it's time to die to strike your foe when it's right to strike
War! We live for war! Forevermore!
