Is fate changing?
Is it searching for an answer?
Is your sky tilting over you?
Has it turned into a puzzle?
Is it beyond understanding?
Is the earth's center losing balance?
As you spread your wings,
in that eager moment,
won't your nest fall apart?
Upon your mansion,
when a lightning bolt strikes,
has it crumbled into dust?
All the dreams you envisioned,
scattering in just a few seconds,
won't they vanish like clouds?
Have you ever thought about this?
Did you live, or did you fall today?
Did you win, or are you just standing still?
Did you rise, or are you finished
in your own story?
To buy a single page in the ledger,
you wandered till your legs grew weary.
What did you achieve by losing your army
on your battlefield?
On your battlefield?
Like a leaf in flowing water,
if you float along without fault,
fate will bring you safely to shore.
Wounds will heal, deep darkness will fade,
like a tree bearing sweet fruit,
time itself will prove it.
This life is just a stage play,
and everyone is an actor.
Somewhere, your disguise
will unravel and tear apart;
that time will surely come.
To conquer your goal,
after all the running you did,
did you see where it brought you?
Once you realize that the place you reached
is just the starting line you began from,
Did you live, or did you fall today?
Did you win, or are you just standing still?
Did you rise, or are you finished
in your own story?
To buy a single page in the ledger,
you wandered till your legs grew weary.
What did you achieve by losing your army
on your battlefield?
On your battlefield?
