[Chorus] This is the path I have chosen. I cast myself into the battlefield And let the smell of gunpowder envelop me. [Chorus] The bird I longed to be was far too restricted, Constantly bound by so many things. I couldn’t bear it—born as I was from the start. [Intro] [Verse] The story of the white bird my grandmother used to tell. A symbol of happiness that brings smiles and joy to everyone. I longed for it. Because I was so naive. [Pre-chorus] I tried to become that. [Pre-chorus] I wanted to become that. [Pre-chorus] I tried to become that. [Pre-chorus] But I couldn't. [Chorus] This is the path I have chosen. I cast myself into the battlefield And let the smell of gunpowder envelop me. [Chorus] The bird I longed to be was far too restricted, Constantly bound by so many things. I couldn’t bear it—born as I was from the start. [bridge] [Verse 2] This life was born to fight. I no longer seek dreams. Encase yourself in an inorganic shell. To reach the utopia. [Pre-chorus] I don't want to be tied down. [Pre-chorus] I want to be free. [Pre-chorus] I want to keep fighting. [Pre-chorus] I want to prove my existence. [Chorus] My body seeks battle. I won’t go back to that constrained past. Because my soul was never there. [Chorus] I continue to march onto the battlefield. Nothing binds me in the midst of war. Even if they liken me to a black bird. [Outro] Live as I wish, die as I wish. That is simply the way I live.
