Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance


The Only Thing I Know for Real

    Memories broken
    The truth goes unspoken
    I’ve even forgotten my name
    
    I don’t know the season
    Or what is the reason
    I’m standing here holding my blade
    
    A desolate place
    Without any trace
    It’s only the cold wind I feel
    
    It’s me that I spite
    As I stand up and fight
    The only thing I know for real
    
    There will be blood-shed
    The man in the mirror nods his head
    
    The only one left
    Will ride upon the dragon’s back
    
    Because the mountains don’t give back what they take
    Oh no
    There will be blood-shed
    It’s the only thing I’ve ever known
    
    Losing my identity
    Wondering have I gone insane
    To find the truth in front of me
    I must climb this mountain range
    Looking downward from this deadly height
    And never realizing why I fight 

    Senator Armstrong speech

      I do need capital. And votes. Wanna know why? "I have a dream." That one day, every person in this nation will control their OWN destiny. A land of the TRULY free, dammit. A nation of ACTION, not words. Ruled by STRENGTH, not committee. Where the law changes to suit the individual, not the other way around. Where power and justice are back where they belong: in the hands of the people! Where every man is free to think -- to act -- for himself! Fuck all these limp-dick lawyers and chicken-shit bureaucrats. Fuck this 24/7 Internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit. Fuck "American pride". Fuck the media! Fuck all of it! America is diseased. Rotten to the core. There's no saving it -- we need to pull it out by the roots. WIpe the slate clean. BURN IT DOWN! And from the ashes, a new America will be born. Evolved, but untamed! The weak will be purged, and the strongest will thrive -- free to live as they see fit, they will make America GREAT AGAIN!
      
      What the hell are you talking about?
      
      You still don't get it. I'm using war as a business to get elected... so I can end war as a business! In my new America, people will die and kill for what they BELIEVE! Not for money, not for oil! Not for what they're told is right. Every man will be free to fight his own wars!

      Standing here I realize

        Standing here I realize lyrics or Raiden punching Armstrong meme lyrics
        Standing here, I realize you were
        Just like me trying to make history.
        But who's to judge the right from wrong.
        When our guard is down I think we'll both agree.
        That violence breeds violence.
        But in the end it has to be this way.
        I've curved my own path, you've followed your wrath;
        But maybe we're both the same.
        The world has turned, and so many have burned.
        But nobody is to blame.
        It's tearing across this barren wasted land.
        I feel new life could be born beneath
        The blood stained sand.
