The Dragon Withinv6

[Intro — Chinese drums, guzheng plucks, fast guitar riff] [Spoken vocals] 准备好了吗？ [Shouted vocals] Let’s go! [Verse 1 — energetic clean vocals] I tripped on the stairs, hit the floor, Still got back up and asked for more. They saw a joke in a bowl of noodles, I saw a chance to break the rules. The mountain shook, the banners flew, I had no clue what I could do. But every stumble, every bruise Brought me one step closer to the truth. [Pre-Chorus — rising intensity, Chinese drum accents] No perfect form, no chosen past, Just one more try—give it all you’ve got! [Chorus — big melodic vocals, full band] I’ve got the dragon within me, A fire I never knew. I don’t need to be somebody else— I just have to follow through. When the whole world says I’m not ready, I’ll rise and prove them wrong. The road is steep, the odds are heavy— But I’ve been strong all along! [Breakdown — stop-start guitars, Chinese drums] [Shouted vocals] 功夫！ [Impact] 站起来！ [Impact] 跌倒了？ [Abrupt stop] 再来！ [Verse 2 — faster clean vocals, dizi and guitar accents] A scroll can’t tell you who you are, A title doesn’t make you strong. You find your balance when you fall, Then choose to stand and carry on. A quiet heart can move like thunder, A steady hand can turn the tide. The strength I chased was never hidden— It was growing deep inside. [Pre-Chorus — rising vocals] No perfect form, no chosen past, Just one more try—give it all you’ve got! [Chorus — fuller, layered vocals] I’ve got the dragon within me, A fire I never knew. I don’t need to be somebody else— I just have to follow through. When the whole world says I’m not ready, I’ll rise and prove them wrong. The road is steep, the odds are heavy— But I’ve been strong all along! [Bridge — guzheng and clean vocals, then building drums] 一口一口，慢慢来 Step by step, I’ll find my way. 心无旁骛，向前走 With a clear heart, onward I go. [Final Breakdown — crushing half-time, Chinese drum hits] [Shouted vocals] 加油！ [Impact] 别放弃！ [Impact] FALL DOWN! GET UP! [Abrupt stop] 再来一次！ [Final Chorus — full band, triumphant clean vocals] I’ve got the dragon within me, A fire I finally knew. I don’t need to be somebody else— I just have to follow through. When the whole world says I’m not ready, I’ll rise and prove them wrong. The road is steep, the odds are heavy— But I’ve been strong all along! [Outro — dizi and guzheng over fading guitars] [Spoken vocals] 功夫，不止是拳头。 Kung fu is more than a fist.
