Berserk - Guts (Berserk)

If I'm getting paid, I'm just a mercenary
With nowhere to go or to return
No goals or reasons to dream

My life has always been like this
Until the day I met you

Griffith, if you beat me, I'll join your crew
But know that if I win, I'll put a hole in your chest
So I was defeated? A friendship formed there
I never had anything to live for, so now I’ll fight for your dream

Battle after battle, victory after victory
Little by little, our crew earned glory
Our name known, we made history
The path I follow is through your journey

Zodd, the Immortal, I won't just stand by
While my friends die, but I can't understand
A prophecy, death awaits me
By the hand of whom I swore to protect?

We joined the White Dragons
Expanding the Hawk's Band
But they tried to kill Griffith
And for the betrayal, they'll pay

No need to ask, Griffith, your order will be done
Just give me the word
Count Julius, second heir to the throne
I will kill you!

But what have I done? Unintentionally, I killed an innocent child
I can't let ambitions take over my mind in the end
That day, something in me died
My honor fades with that boy
I look into my soul and find nothing
But a man wandering dead

So many warriors, an ambush
Know that Casca won't be killed
I have in my mind to fight and kill, and kill and kill
That's all that matters

I said they wouldn't touch her
I took out a whole battalion by myself
What am I doing?
What's the point?

War changes a man and I don't know anymore
Why the sin that consumed me now makes me stronger
But more and more alone?
I've lost so much, my soul, friends, and it can't be undone
Mistakes follow me and from the pain rises the Berserk
I have no reason to live
That's why I dirty my hands
If I have to, I’ll die
For the Hawk's dream!
I've lost so much, my soul, friends, and it can't be undone
Mistakes follow me and from the pain rises the Berserk
From the pain rises the Berserk!

The Hawk's Band must take Doldrey
5,000 against 30,000
It's not a problem, we just need to follow Griffith's orders to the letter

General Boscogne was defeated
Doldrey was taken
The cry of victory
The raising of the sword

But why do I feel so distant?
I can't live like this
Without a purpose for my life
I have to follow my path

I ask for forgiveness, but I've made my decision
I'm leaving the Hawk's Band
What was taken by the sword
Can only be returned by it, if needed, I’ll defeat it then

But what have I done? Every wrong decision
Away for so long, I couldn't do anything
Griffith was tortured, so disfigured, he’ll never be the same
Neither will I, nor you, I will never forgive!

Behelit activates
The eclipse begins

The start of the Apocalypse
I will never allow them to take my friend
He would never do this
How can we be sacrifices?

If there was a choice, why?
Tell me, why did you do this?
You abused Casca in front of me
And killed all your friends

You’re not the same anymore
And I know you never will be
All for the damn dream of yours!
I will never forgive you!

Everyone is dead, Judeau, Pippin, Corkus
All who once fought for you!
Are you really the same man
That I once swore to protect?!

Tear off my arm, my eye, my soul
Better to rip it all off at once!
Because I swear if I stay alive
One day, I will kill all of you!

But, why the sin that consumed me now makes me, more
Stronger, but more and more alone?
I've lost so much, my soul, friends, and it can't be undone
Mistakes follow me and from the pain rises the Berserk
I have a reason to live
That's why I dirty my hands
Because I swear I won't die
Until one day I kill the Hawk!
I've lost so much, my soul, friends, and it can't be undone
Mistakes follow me and from the pain rises the Berserk
From the pain rises the Berserk!
