Reawaker Ft. Felix Lyrics Translation – Lisa
Benjamin Anderson pens lyrics that mix ancient mythology with modern struggle. He mentions the ‘Ring of Gyges that grants invisibility’ as a tool for the comeback. The poet uses sharp imagery like a fading portrait and a hunter’s pride to describe the resolve.
Sou marude shun wo sugita chikara no you niIt’s just like a power that’s passed its prime,
Rotten to the core deeper matahitotsu demorotting even deeper to the core, once again.
I have reawakened for revengeI’ve reawakened for revenge,
Kono fuzaketa ruuru ni datteagainst these ridiculous rules.
They chew up and spit you outThey’ll chew you up and spit you out.

Yami ni nijimu ano hi no shouzouthe portrait of that day fades into the dark.

But I better get a grip, if I slip, if I tripBut I’d better get a grip—if I slip, if I trip,
If I drop in the hole in the roadif I fall into the hole in the road.
But they never give a doggy a boneBut they’ll never give a dog a bone.
It’s unlockable, a crown or a throneA crown or a throne is there to be unlocked,
But the gladiator’s back, gonna mount the attackbut the gladiator’s back and ready to attack,
With my shadowy army in towwith my shadowy army in tow.
