Discipline
ASM

[Narrator]

Ever closer now the shores of vabaria

His thoughts drift to the prospect of reunion with his beloved

Though adoptive parents, boro and celestia

Shallow waters

As he drags the boat through the sand to the tree line

He notices commotion emanating from a beachside tavern

Having travelled for days, he sidles up

To the battered old gate and soon his memory awakes

To familiar sensations, seeking out the sweet remuneration

Of taking a deep swig of the belko brew

Singles out the inn’s keeper who replies

Only with a sneer and a “who the hell are you?”


[Shalim]

I’m Shalim from the lost tribe


[Narrator]

Hostile, eyes on the prize

Self-taught he’s the vessel whom the oracle chose

The story unfolds, his origins restored as a goal


[Shalim]

I’m the last of the Tan Suo


[Narrator]

Red hot, ready for the duel

He’s the prodigal son from the crown hill region

Even wanted by the king for desertion and treason


[Shalim]

I’m gonna find the beast, and when in front of him

Show him that the chosen one can throw a couple punches in

Slay a dozen of his bodyguards and keep him wishing

My sword swing wouldn’t force him into deep submission

But sweeter even, people listen!

I’m not here to leave imperial regimes imprisoned

I’m here to smash it into little shards

And to anyone in charge, heads are coming off!


[Narrator]

As the tirade fades and the rage settles

Hears a strange fellow to his right hand side that now engages

Begs pardon but he overhead the name as shalim

And whether he was of relation to a boro and celestia

Bereft of her precious since the war drums blazed

And the child took flight through the night

He hates to be the bearer of this caliber of news

But he’d rather that he knew the sad truth

Gut shot, unable to digest

Brain recoils and refuses to accept

The ones that raised him as their own were now dead and buried

Fallen to the kings blind fury in a flurry

Cause being his association with rebellion


And the general had made an example of them

Shalim now stands enraged and proclaims:


[Shalim]

Tomorrow night Rongon falls to my blade!

Please old man, this meeting’s over

What? You say you’re one of the Shin Toa?

I don’t believe ya’

I’m Shalim, the last of the Tan-Suo

Pleased to meet ya’

If it’s not too large of a demand

It would be a great honor if you’d like to be my teacher

Yes, Master Rishi, I’m ready to experience

Discipline, stillness of mind


[Narrator]

Hours on days on weeks on the grind

Wiser, stronger, slicker, faster

Apprentice forged in the image of the master


[Shalim]

Discipline, stillness of mind


[Narrator]

Hours on days on weeks on the grind

Wind sweeps over the pasture

Branches dance to the tune of the master


[Shalim]

I’m gonna find the beast and when I do it

I’ll think of all the people that I’ve lost to his blind pride

Keep the mind’s eye focused on my nemesis

Intelligent as he may seem and clearly venomous

I will defeat him! Revenge for the legions

And won’t rest until their left widows know freedom

I don’t wanna see him breathing for a second longer

General Rongon, I’m coming for ya!

I’m Shalim from the lost tribe


[Narrator]

Focused, eyes on the prize

Been taught by the best on the hillside

And in the deep forest were the wise reside


[Shalim]

And I’m the last of the Tan Suo


[Narrator]

Stays cool, ready for the duel

He’s the prodigal son, humble in his skill

Calm with a view to a kill
