Lyric

Bamboo Break

KIRI

竹割る音

Snap the bamboo, split the silence, watch it crack

Words cut faster, never looking back

Stacked rhymes like they're building blocks

刻む

Ticking clock but I'm breaking locks

Moving quick, conversation flow so light

And the darkness can't contain my sight

Bamboo breaking, rhythm taking shape

Jumping in and out, never miss escape

Playful blade but the message stays

Cutting through the haze, burning off the gray

Every syllable's a calculated strike

Weaving words together, fitting tight

Mischief is my first and second name

笑う刃

Playing with the fire, changing all the game

Fluent in the art of clever contradiction

Building up momentum, that's my jurisdiction

Light and heavy, fast and slow

Keeping rhythm, stealing flow

Breaking rules that don't apply

Watching barriers turn to sky
