The Fire of Temptation
Akashic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waiting patient to capture a prey
The dice was cast and this is the time
Trust in your heart, wait for a bless
There is a chance to gaze the both sides
It's like a flying fish living in two worlds
Out of the sea it's caught in a trap
Life! Eternal is the choice you made someday
Nothing to grieve! Everyday come as it's written
It's heard a chant around all the shore line
It's a mermaid singing to you
It's so unreal, it's just a illusion
Stay far away, don't look back
There is a chance to gaze the both sides
It's like a flying fish living in two worlds
Out of the sea it's caught in a trap
Drown in the air, shut in a shell
Life! Eternal is the choice you made someday
Nothing to grieve! Everyday come as it's written
Line! Crossing all the trail of your life
Close to the edge!
Don't let temptation devour your all.
All decisions have its weight
And judgement in this life
Stand aware, stand awake and glimpse deep inside
So tell me now
How far would you go to get all that you want?
There are two ways
So think because you just have one
Life! Eternal is the choice you made someday
Nothing to grieve! Everyday come as it's written
Line! Crossing all the trail of your life
Close to the edge!
Don't let temptation swallow you.
The lyrics to Akashic's song "The Fire of Temptation" are a warning about the dangers of succumbing to temptation. The opening lines describe a trap being set with bait waiting for a prey, symbolizing the temptations that may present themselves in life. The lyrics then go on to describe the danger of giving in to temptation, using the metaphor of a flying fish caught in a trap, unable to live fully in either world. The chorus reinforces the idea that the choices we make in life have consequences, emphasizing that the choice between eternal life and a life of regret rests on our actions in the present.
The second verse of the song introduces the idea of a mermaid's song, tempting the listener to fall into a trap. The song is described as an illusion, warning listeners not to be fooled by false promises. The chorus is repeated with an added line encouraging listeners not to let temptation consume them. The final verse asks listeners to consider the weight of their decisions and to be aware of the consequences that come with their actions. The song ends with a question asking how far listeners are willing to go to get what they want and urging them to choose wisely.

Another bait was thrown in the ocean
A new temptation has been introduced into your life
Waiting patient to capture a prey
It waits patiently for you to give in to its allure
The dice was cast and this is the time
The decision has been made and it's time to face the consequences
Trust in your heart, wait for a bless
Have faith in yourself and wait for a blessing from a higher power
There is a chance to gaze the both sides
You have the opportunity to consider both options
It's like a flying fish living in two worlds
It's as if you're caught between two very different possibilities
Out of the sea it's caught in a trap
You're caught in a situation you can't escape from
Drown in the air, shut in a shell
You're suffocating and trapped in your own thoughts
Life! Eternal is the choice you made someday
The choice you made about your life will last forever
Nothing to grieve! Everyday come as it's written
Don't regret any decisions because everything is predetermined
It's heard a chant around all the shore line
You're being tempted by something that seems sweet but is ultimately dangerous
It's a mermaid singing to you
The temptation appears to be irresistible
It's so unreal, it's just a illusion
The temptation may look nice but it's not true or genuine
Stay far away, don't look back
Distance yourself from the temptation and don't look back
Line! Crossing all the trail of your life
Every decision you make will impact your future
Close to the edge!
You're getting dangerously close to the point of no return
Don't let temptation devour your all.
Don't let yourself be consumed by the temptation
All decisions have its weight
Every choice you make has consequences
And judgement in this life
You will be held accountable for your actions
Stand aware, stand awake and glimpse deep inside
Be aware of the choices you make and take the time to think about them
So tell me now
Are you ready to face the consequences of your choices?
How far would you go to get all that you want?
What are you willing to sacrifice to get what you desire?
There are two ways
You have a choice to make
So think because you just have one
Think carefully because you only get one chance to make the right decision
Don't let temptation swallow you.
Don't allow yourself to be consumed by temptation
