As fury rises, as destiny changes,
As the traitors' fate turns,
As a hundred armies clash,
As fury rises, as destiny changes,
As the traitors' fate turns,
Look, he comes!
As a hundred armies clash,
As he charges at the enemy,
Look, he moves forward!
Courage, manhood, and pride
Will never bow down anywhere!
Let justice stand firm and win today!
A fierce storm shows no mercy
To a single leaf.
Come on, swirl like a cyclone,
Making the shores roar like a raging sea!
Come on!
Hunt down the enemy without mercy!
Go on!
Slaughter them on the battlefield!
You are the son of fire!
Deliver justice!
Chase them as they run,
Hunt down the enemy and strike them down!
As fury rises, as destiny changes,
As the traitors' fate turns,
Chorus: Look, he comes!
As a hundred armies clash,
As he charges at the enemy,
Chorus: Look, he moves forward!
As sparks of fire fly,
As you rise up tall,
As the sky shakes,
As your eyes turn red,
As the ground quakes,
As the roar of battle echoes,
Face them head on,
Come on, step up!
As flesh burns,
As life bleeds away,
With a thunderous charge,
As the heavens split open,
With lightning crashing down
In your very hands,
Come on, unstoppable warrior!
Ah, as you strike,
Your shoulders flexing with power,
While I watch and admire,
Go hunt them down!
Finish it by breaking their strength,
As you crush them to pieces,
While I laugh along,
Rage like a storm!
Come on!
Hunt down the enemy without mercy!
Go on!
Slaughter them on the battlefield!
You are the son of fire!
Deliver justice!
Chase them as they run,
Hunt down the enemy and strike them down!
As fury rises, as destiny changes,
As the traitors' fate turns,
Chorus: Look, he comes!
As a hundred armies clash,
As he charges at the enemy,
Chorus: Look, he moves forward!
Courage, manhood, and pride
Will never bow down anywhere!
Let justice stand firm and win today!
A fierce storm shows no mercy
To a single leaf.
Come on, swirl like a cyclone,
Making the shores roar like a raging sea!
