[Intro – whispered, eerie beat with echo effects]
Red eyes bleeding, see the pain in my past
Whole clan gone, yeah, I did it real fast
Not a villain, just a shadow that lasts
Live for the leaf, even if I’m outcast
⸻
[Verse 1 – heavy emo flow]
I was just a kid with a weight on my back
They trained me for war, now my soul’s off track
Told me, “Kill ’em all,” now I walk with the wrath
Eyes cold like the night, put my heart in a mask
Brother, you don’t know what I did for you
Played the villain so they never hit you too
Now I’m painted as the one they hate
But I bled for the leaf, yeah, I sealed my fate
⸻
[Chorus – melodic with pain in voice]
Crows in the sky when I walk through the rain
Blood on my hands but I’m numb to the pain
You think I’m a monster, think I’m insane
But I gave up my soul so you’d never feel the same
Eyes of a god, but a heart so torn
Die in the dark, leave you safe by morn’
They don’t know what this life really cost me
Truth in the shadows, no one ever saw me
⸻
[Verse 2 – faster flow with grit]
Anbu nights, mission after mission
Shinobi code ain’t got no forgiveness
I see lies in the council’s decisions
So I took it all, played the villain’s position
Fake love, fake peace, fake shinobi dream
I became the nightmare behind the scene
Told Sasuke, “Hate me, that’s what you need”
But my love for you buried deep underneath
Yeah, I’m cursed with this Mangekyō sight
Watchin’ everyone I love die in the night
But if hell is the price for your life to shine
Then I’ll burn alone till the end of time
⸻
[Chorus – repeat with layered vocals]
Crows in the sky when I walk through the rain
Blood on my hands but I’m numb to the pain
You think I’m a monster, think I’m insane
But I gave up my soul so you’d never feel the same
Eyes of a god, but a heart so torn
Die in the dark, leave you safe by morn’
They don’t know what this life really cost me
Truth in the shadows, no one ever saw me
⸻
[Outro – quiet, melancholic voice fading out]
Forgive me, lil bro…
I just wanted you to grow…
Even if you had to hate me so…
The truth dies with the crows…
