[Verse 1] Greetings, young Blade Dancer I have reviewed your arrival Your footwork: astonishing Your shoulders: alarmingly precise Zaun-born, yes, I can detect it In the soot, in the steel, in the strain Brother to Jinx and to Vi Yet somehow still standing sane You cartwheel through danger Then punctuate it with flame An acrobat with a blade And a mind that seems built the same [Pre-Chorus] Curious, highly curious The solder, the springs, the spark Your contraptions are improvised But elegant in the dark I see intent in the shrapnel I see patience in the smoke A specimen of rare promise A very peculiar bloke [Chorus] Welcome to 2XKO Blade Dancer, take your place Welcome to 2XKO Bring that fire, bring that grace I rather like your invention I rather like your aim Welcome to 2XKO Let us see what you can claim [Verse 2] Your sword arcs like an equation Solving distance in the air Then boom, a hinge, a flare, a spark And suddenly you’re everywhere You mix explosive momentum With little marvels of brass A marvelous hybrid of chaos And discipline, if I may class And the fire Good heavens, the fire It blooms like a theorem proved A most unorthodox answer Yet beautifully interluded [Pre-Chorus] Now, do try not to rupture The flooring, or my nerves I admire your enthusiasm And the bite behind your curves You’re reckless, yes, but deliberate A contradiction I trust A young man built from salvage And something warmer than rust [Chorus] Welcome to 2XKO Blade Dancer, take your place Welcome to 2XKO Bring that fire, bring that grace I rather like your invention I rather like your aim Welcome to 2XKO Let us see what you can claim [Spoken Bridge] Blade Dancer Your methods are, how shall I say, delightfully indecorous A remarkable fusion of kinetic artistry and unstable engineering I should be cross Instead, I am thrilled And if the world has failed to provide proper guidance Then I shall provide it With tea With tools And with stern, paternal insistence [Final Chorus] Welcome to 2XKO Blade Dancer, take your place Welcome to 2XKO Bring that fire, bring that grace I rather like your invention I rather like your aim Welcome to 2XKO And mind you don’t get maimed [Outro] Stand tall Think sharp Come home with all your limbs
