nonelikejoshua - jiraiya's gutsiness lyrics
[intro]
i’ll continue when i get back
the final chapter
i suppose it’s time to begin
[verse 1: nlj]
never wanted to be the hokage
i was so blasé, writing novels all day
watchin’ broads play but i longed for tsunade
story unfolds ’till i find a writer’s blockade
the toad said i’m vital to this arms race
a divine child waits in a cycle of all hate
despite the mistakes on the pages of my fate
but i’ll fight for his life‘s sake
always had thought my destiny was to bring the peace
fought to keep the legacy that i’ll be leavin’ for the leaf
but i lost all the pieces of my life in defeat
at the cost of being pleased as i jot memories like these
my sensei, sarutobi, is deceased
and my best friend orochi turning to evil underneath
so i send minato all my deepest apologies
in the end, nagato taught me the things i couldn’t teach
[chorus: caleb hyles]
as the failures grow
the writing flows
so you become the chosen one for us
as i fall below
for those i loved
and won’t give up ’cause you were like a son
[jiraiya]
am i… going to die?
looking back, my life has been nothing but failure
[verse 2]
why is everybody at reunions
trying to execute this sannin when it’s useless?
i’ll prove it, oil from my mouth when i do spit
summoning jutsu, gamabunta got you disillusioned
lock you in this oesophagus of a toad cause i’m too sick
sage mode chakra putting the six paths in bruises
shootin’ a rasengan, the battle chooses who wins
shin0bis always live on even if they’re losin it
laying my life for the next generation
faith you’ll be hokage, whether or not i make it
writing my dying words, so you don’t have to feel this pain that
i’m taking, then you can end all the hatred
pushin’ to reaching your limit
and riskin’ my life for potential within
and i did it so you can be livin’
equippin’ your future, but even with women
now i’ve written every wish i never finished
you’re fulfillin’, naruto, live and write a new beginning
[chorus]
as the failures grow
the writing flows
so you become the chosen one for us
as i fall below
for those i loved
and won’t give up ’cause you were like a son
’cause you were like a son
[outro]
it’s finished
i guess this is end of
the tale of jiraiya the gallant
(you were like a son)
