This Is War 7 - Ionia

Forget what you've learned
Your wisdom won't save you from pain well deserved
Unseen onslaught
The wrath of the Kinkou
A spinning devastation of the true Kage Bunshin no Jutsu
They call us to balance
The scales must be leveled
But no one will mourn one less Noxian devil
And should we not revel?
Can we find no pride in our blades when the score must be settled?

Onwards
We must answer when judgment is beckoning
Let the stillness of death be our reckoning
Our home must be first in our thoughts
It is them we're protecting
The light demands a patient hand
It draws in sand the lines where no one stands
But they disgrace the clan
They desecrate and give no thought to justice we demand

I will take to the shadows
I will bury the light
I will carry their legends
I will savor the fight
I will bring vindication
I will honor their lives
And with no hesitation
They will die

What is the purpose of a memory (they will die)
When there is no one left to honor it (they will die)
War is a path always treading (they will die)
It is we who must follow it (they will die)
We must stand to oppressors (they will die)
We must slay all aggressors (they will die)
We must fight for ionia (they will die)
Both now and forever (they will die)

A word to the wise
Your weakness is visible even without eyes
Sonic boom to your back
Flying kick and I crack
Your spine I'm leaving you disheveled and underleveled
I'm Daredevil with knockback
There's never a defense that I can't break through
You're leaving crippled every time you hear that Iku!

They underestimate the power of the spirit tempest
And with the swiftness I am IP Man with the interception
My senses sharpened to a needle there is no deception
A Master down to every moment I make no concessions

I can sense your fear
I know it's near
And when I hear it's all so clear
Silence
My strike is resonating through Runetera
Through the spirits of the eras
And I leave no room for error

I'm a terror
I'm the dragon strike the bearer
But I'm trying to be fairer so I'm saving some for Udyr
The blades prance with a swift foot and fluid hands
Swords dance like a ballroom
Karma get the cam, understand that I'm huntin' man
The crest intersects with the fatal flex

Slicin' opposed necks
The plan's set
Now I'm flankin' I hoard stack
Blades circle the prey, no escaping this cagematch
Based back
Got the drop on a Swain trap
I don't have to explain I'm dis-arming the army's general
Scars are visceral, carnage literal
See a raven in the fray
I'll take apart the criminal
Blade dancer on the rift, know I put in work
George Parker with the bars, I may need a nerf
One two three four
Bodies I'm countin' the sins
Two Two three four
Penta I'm counting you in
Voices in my head never sound like the one that you're used to
Now that that's outta the way
Point the gun barrel like a camera lens at a murder spree
Corpses all over the place, another crime scene
Oh my God

See the magic and beauty where every hollow sleeps
Past ballistic trauma you're triggered I'll shoot ya
Whisper in the ear of the devil this ain't a metronome
Bullets'll demolish ya cranium like the Metrodome
I'll treat a ninja like a letter
Put 'em through the shredder

Mortal performances more fatale than a jade player (Finish him)
Here's an Oscar from the audience I'm captivatin'
Curtain Call fall on your head but no decapitating
I'm center stage in a sinner's fame
You figured we masquerading my character's activated
They gotta wonder what's the M. O
Demolition the mission, the credits rise like a bread roll
Art by the act of the trigger witness the gunplay
Gun fire sounds like a lullaby on a Thursday
Blood splatters like a kaleidoscope I got fire quotes
From a psycho escaping from Arkham like it's ice so
Cold shoulder solo performance like any ISO

I'm so fly that a kite's apart of my psyche though
I'm might soak up the screams at the opening ding
Siphon the cypher I'm shady but no referring to sweets
Here come the ace by the spades, four shots for the team
See the ending of your kind, no rewinding it squeeze
I ain't forgot that I got one left
The spoiler is coming and the ending is death
Root of this DMT inseamed to put you at ease
The melody spell the finale titled it Jhin-sing
You may believe that "she's born with it" and yes you'd be right
I guess it runs in the fam and despite my spite
I'm a prodigal prodigy, here to create my own prophecy
If you think you're the one stopping me baby you can get that
To the chest boy

I'm a vet boy
Puttin' down these mongrels yes boy
Ninja set boy
Santa Claus with the hit-list
How I gift this
A ninja assassin so you know I don't miss
These are the tale of Runetera in Ionia
Sheena in Symphonia
My assassin's mark is like a brand now I own ya
Tattoos like a five point strike
Perfectly executed like a guillotine might
Right, an eye for an eye

I'm kage if you're light
It seems that is my plight, but more than justified
A sacrificial piece to the puzzle
So I carry it on my back
Like a team I got muscle
This is my fight, seeking retribution every night in the moonlight
Distributing karma with my kama cutting through lies
This is for my people we don't want no more loss
We exist in the twilight

I may walk alone but I'll find myself despite
All the odds against me all that does is fuel and ignite
Drive and passion for this end game
So guess what? I'm fired up
The old ways just don't work
How can you sit there, muse there and let us hurt?
I'll be the face of the new revolution
That's my resolution
A stylistic execution
But tell me what is the meaning of the Twilight
When they discard neutrality?

Our code has demand but reputation is reality
I stand for justice and I'll do so with pride
I'll be the living safeguard between shadow and light
The plot goes grab a snot nose
And suplex him off the top rope
Even top pros
In here proving that they clot snow
Hit a hot pose
Breakin' faces when I drop bows
Every bot knows
That I'm chasing if they spot those
Bare chested clothes
Nobody better get your lane froze
Best get a sweater
Pain is my pleasure
Hand my mom a rose
Load up the stretcher, call Mrs. Fletcher
Where the queen goes
They're biting the dust
They're under pressure I'ma
Blow

It's the dawn of an era
Try to look mean but I scare ya
Try to square up buttercup
But you're fightin' the tsunami
In the wave itchin'
Time to drop bodies
On the ground twitchin'
Scream for your mommy
Cleared out the division like Rocky
I'm charging admission
Coins for bloodshed

Your ticket buys the whole damn seat but you only need the edge
Face the wrath of the Battousai
Nobody's competing with the Gale Force samurai
I'ma get the win, you can get the wind
Samurai Champloo, I am the 'Fujin'
Nevertheless I have to stay on the move
Most of you champs will simply never improve
Now you can fire all of your words like your bullets
But I do not fear it

With Wind Wall I can't even hear it
Let's take this lesson you ingrates
While you begged for Yone
I pumped up my pick rate
I have no design on being well liked
To having you think of me as if I was first in your lives
But that's alright
Just respect my might
In any lane that I roam you will step to the side
If any wounded are near, let them cower and hide
I do not need your cheers
Yo my blade's the only one by my side
Fox fire to your face

Call me shippo pull an ace when I'm burning down the place
Triple dash Spirit Rush into the back
See me drift around the rift like a race
Either way it goes
One blown kiss I'm dissamin' any foe
How alarming, see a Senshi in a quarry
Star Guardian status you can call me Stahri
Too late for mercy, murkin' opponents who wanted to verse me
Ballin' like I'm Curry, Kurama, comma the verse queen
We linin' up the hearses for the whole team
Oh, you still here?

Orb of destruction made it crystal clear
That I can out fox that opp that's near
Got a stack for this cast like I copped that tear
How can we unite?
Every individual must fight for their lives
I seek to protect, to shield and deflect
I aim to respect the lessons shadows seem to quickly forget
But it's a mess
I am expected to lead
But Shredder thinks that the Kinkou should die for his beliefs
I cannot keep a leash on Akali so it would seem
The burden of responsibility must fall to me

Please
They think I harbor love for Noxians
That is absurd, I'll sooner join the box my father's in
Obviously I put the clan before my overconfidence
Pray that Kinkou never falls to brazen mediocrity

Listen Zed
Light is not a burden but a lesson
We don't serve the shadows that's a blessing
So watch the very halls in which you're stepping
I'd rather live defended by my morals than a slave to my obsessions
You're pathetic

I challenge you coward
I run from nothing
Think your shadows equal power
I look towards Shen knowing he does not forget
Your father was a weakling that you could not protect
Shadow rising every side
Leaving only lunar light
I sharpen my blades
My will remains steady
I lunged for the strike
My defenses are ready
Fist of Shadows seeks a fight
Carving out the shadow sides
I sense another presence

My time I've been bidding
A scythe from behind me
Akali comes out of hiding
Blades sparking every strike
Clashing echoes through the night
I see you needed help
And you've kept me waiting
We must defeat him now
There's no time for debating
Blood is retreating
The shadows fade in the light
I must double back
I will not forget this night
