Jianghu Alone

*[Hook]* Yeah, yeah I've been on my own, Walking through the Jianghu, never had a home. They ain't know my name until my name was carved in stone, Now every little sect wanna call me one of their own. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've been on my own, Black robe in the night, riding somewhere unknown. She said, “Stay with me,” but I was already gone, Got a sword across my back and the moon to lead me home. Yeah. *[Verse 1]* I don't need a clan, I don't need a name, Master tried to teach me but I walked another way. They were laughing back then, Now they bow when I pass, Young lord talking crazy— he won't say it when I ask. Wine inside my cup, Silver in my sleeve, Everybody wants something, that's why I always leave. She said she understands me, No, you don't understand. I watched brothers turn to strangers over power in their hands. So I move— Mountain road, Cold wind, No friends. One blade, One life, No ends. They ask where I'm going. I don't know. Anywhere the river flows. *[Hook]* Yeah, yeah I've been on my own, Walking through the Jianghu, never had a home. They ain't know my name until my name was carved in stone, Now every little sect wanna call me one of their own. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've been on my own, Black robe in the night, riding somewhere unknown. She said, “Stay with me,” but I was already gone, Got a sword across my back and the moon to lead me home. *[Verse 2]* Now they know the face, Now they know the blade, Funny how they love you when the whole world knows your name. Where were you before when I slept beneath the rain? Had an empty stomach, broken sword, and nothing saved. Now they send invitations, jade seals from every nation. Sect leader wants allegiance. I don't do negotiations. I don't kneel. I don't beg. I don't care who's at the gate. If you're coming for revenge, brother, you're already late. Yeah. Young master mad 'cause his girl know my song. I ain't even want her, I've been traveling too long. She asked me where I live. Baby— Wherever my horse stops. *[Bridge]* Moon above me, River underneath. Everybody talking, I just let 'em speak. I lost some brothers that I thought I'd never lose. That's why when they ask me which sect I'm gonna choose— None. *[Hook]* I've been on my own, Walking through the Jianghu, never had a home. They ain't know my name until my name was carved in stone, Now every little sect wanna call me one of their own. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've been on my own, Black robe in the night, riding somewhere unknown. She said, “Stay with me,” but I was already gone, Got a sword across my back and the moon to lead me home. *[Outro]* On my own... Still moving. No sect. No throne. No master. No home. If you hear my name somewhere beyond the mountains— Don't come looking. I'll already be gone. Yeah. *Jianghu.*
