Black Ace
Swordmaster Lyrics

Fear – you lose
If you let fear control you, you've already lost the game

My name is a game of death
The singer considers themselves to be synonymous with death and destruction

My eyes are the black
The singer's eyes appear black, which could signify emptiness, darkness, or a lack of humanity

Your move
The artist is challenging the listener to take their turn in the game

A short sport for a devil in disguise
The game is a brief distraction for the artist, who sees themselves as a devil hiding their true nature

Tremble in fear
The singer wants their opponent to be terrified

Try to change the rules of play
The singer is warning their opponent that they won't be able to manipulate the game

Under the serpent's eyes
The artist references the snake in the Garden of Eden as a metaphor for deceit

And you'll fall
The artist wants to destroy their opponent

Bleeding under the instincts of darkness
The artist wants to harm their opponent in a way that is both physical and psychological

Black Ace
The singer is invoking the power of the Ace of Spades, which carries negative connotations in Western culture

I cast you down on burning coal
The artist is condemning their opponent to a fate worse than death

Death and darkness is my goal
The singer wants their enemy to suffer

As winner as lord
The singer sees themselves as a god-like figure who has won the game

I'll se to that the flames reach your soul
The singer wants to cause their opponent eternal damnation

Pick your choice
The artist is giving their opponent the option to make their move

The dark one of stone
The artist is referring to themselves using ominous language and imagery

Play your cards
The singer wants their opponent to choose their strategy

And taste the essence of defeat
The singer wants their opponent to experience the bitterness of losing

No turning back
The artist is warning their opponent that there's no escape from the game

This game has my tyrannic rules
The artist is telling their opponent that they have absolute power over the game

The champions power
The artist believes they have the superiority and strength to win the game

Takes you
The singer is threatening their opponent with their power to defeat them

Yeah, just try to sport the ace's genius
The artist is taunting their opponent to try and match their level of intelligence and cunning

Prepare for blades
The singer is warning their opponent to expect danger

As your hope fades
The singer wants their opponent to feel helpless

You can't outsmart
The singer believes that their opponent can't possibly be smarter than they are

The son of the black!
The artist is again referencing the negative connotations of the color black and personifying it as their 'father'

Come on!!!!!!
The artist is provoking their opponent to take their turn and try to defeat them
