Afro Samurai "Combat" by the RZA

Pretty random but I just wanted to talk about this. I love this song but it drives me nuts that I think the lyrics are wrong all over the internet.

 

These are the lyrics you see everywhere:

[Intro: P. Dot w/ RZA laughing]
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay (Afro!)

[Hook 2X: P. Dot (RZA)]
So many times I had sneak up on them quicker
With my finger on the trigger, like
Like I'm pulling out my sword
This is combat, man, this is war (Afro!)

[RZA]
Brain stained with the harbor, sword stained with the blood of martyrs
Revenge is a never ending story, Afro's the author
Trying to bother, the bare site of my father
So I'm living today, like there's tomorrow
Sword inside my sheet, my heart is filled with beef
For all the dead souls, that I chopped into pieces
Return, of the Afro sheen, fatal mean guillotine
Sword in my hand, I want the number one headband

This is what I hear:

[Intro: P. Dot w/ RZA laughing]
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay (Afro!)

[Hook 2X: P. Dot (RZA)]
So many times I had sneak up on them quicker
With my finger on the trigger, like
Like I'm pulling out my sword
This is combat, man, this is war (Afro!)

[RZA]
Brain stained with the horrors, sword stained with the blood of martyrs
Revenge is a never ending story, Afro's the author
Trying to bother, the gravesite of my father
So I'm living today, like there's tomorrow
Sword is out my sheath, my heart is filled with grief
For all the dead souls, that I chopped into pieces
Return, of the Afro sheen, fatal mean guillotine
Sword in my hand, I want the number one headband

 

what do you think?

I'd say what you've been hearing is correct vs. what's been copy and pasted online. Out of curiosity I threw it through an AI that can split vocals from the instrumental, and it's a bit easier to hear the lyrics that way. Makes more sense in context too. Aren't these sites kinda wiki-style, where anyone can edit them?

Thanks. :eager: No, I can't find any way to edit them. Not that it's important, just bugs me.
