Samurai (Zero Tool) - Borrowed Skin (Cyberpunk 2077) (Cyberpunk: Edgerunners)
[Verse 1]
Chrome under skin, I feel it crawl
Hear that voice when the night falls
Not my thoughts, but they sound like me
Say “burn bright” — don’t let me breathe
Hands don’t shake, but I feel the drift
Every upgrade is a loaded gift
Too much too fast, I’m coming apart
Steel in my veins, noise in my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
Cut me clean
Cut me deep
Who am I
Underneath?
[Chorus]
Borrowed skin — I don’t feel at home
Every part of me is not my own
If I burn, I’ll light the sky instead
Better flame than a ghost in my head
Borrowed skin — I can’t turn it off
Every breath feels like it’s not enough
If I fall, let me fall from high
Better crash than a quiet goodbye
[Verse 2]
See the city from above tonight
Falling fast through electric light
Someone said I was built to last
But I’m breaking every second passed
Blood runs hot but it’s not the same
Every upgrade rewrites my name
I feel her voice in the static rain
“Don’t slow down” — just feed the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Too far gone
Too awake
Every line
Starts to break
[Chorus]
Borrowed skin — I don’t feel at home
Every memory feels overthrown
If I burn, I’ll take it all with me
Light it up so the world can see
Borrowed skin — I’m a loaded gun
Too much power for anyone
If I fall, let it split the sky
Better that than a slow goodbye
[Bridge]
Say it’s worth it…
Say I’m still me…
Say this body
Didn’t kill me…
[Breakdown]
Too
Much
Too
Fast
Name
Gone
Can’t
Last
[Final Chorus]
Borrowed skin — I don’t feel alive
Every second I just survive
If I burn, let me burn too bright
Like a star that ignores the night
Borrowed skin — I can’t shut it down
Hear that voice when there’s no one around
If I fall, I’ll fall full speed
Better fire than a life on repeat
