Raise Your Sword

Background[]

“When I first composed this song, I was kind of going for a fusion of Zelda and Psycho Pass. In the end, it turned out more like "vaguely orchestral" + "vaguely electronic" + guitar because why not. Still, what a cool and energetic opening song! I layered all three Kiyoteru voicebanks when tuning the vocals as well, but a big part of the epic flavor comes from the actual lyrics too.”
—DystoP

"Raise Your Sword" is an original song by DystoP and Nikki D. featuring Hiyama Kiyoteru.

Lyrics[]

Come, and raise up your sword now
As our quest begins,
So shall the era we usher in

Come, and we’ll raise the stakes now
As it draws near,
This battle will be won by us, here and now

Throughout the ages
The only thing that’s been true
Is that our journey
Is something long overdue

So keep your head up
And we’ll show everyone
There’s no holding back
Show them all what can be done

Come, and raise up your sword now
As our quest begins,
So shall the era we usher in

Come, and we’ll raise the stakes now
As it draws near,
This battle will be won by us, here and now

We’re at an impasse
But we can’t just give up now
Steel all of your nerves
No surrender we’ll allow

So keep on moving
Push on through your enemies
Now, with all your might
We’ll be the victors with ease

Come, and raise up your sword now
As our quest begins,
So shall the era we usher in

Come, and we’ll raise the stakes now
As it draws near,
This battle will be won by us, here and

So, it all ends here
What we’ve strived for
Is here

Now, take it up and
Show them all what you’re
Fighting for

Come, and raise up your sword now
As it all begins,
You’ll lead us to victory, herein

Come, and you’ll raise the stakes now
Starting up here,
This battle will be won by us, here and now

Come, and raise up your sword now
As our quest begins,
So shall the era we usher in

Come, and we’ll raise the stakes now
As it draws near,
This battle will be won by us, here and now
