<pre>THE LAST SAMURAI HOLDIN' IT DOWN UP HERE
DEMONICALLY BEAT POSSESSED AND SLAVE TO THE RHTYHM
MY SWORD DEFINES THE CROSSROADS BETWEEN HEAVEN AND HELL
BEAT WARRIOR IN EFFECT, WELCOME TO MY REALM
 
I HAVE ONE LIFE TO LIVE, TO GIVE NEGATIVE OR POSITIVE
AND ALL THAT'S RELATIVE
WITH DOPE BEATS AND SCRATCHES I CRACK A DEVILISH GRIN

GRINDIN' MY TEETH - YEAH INCREASE
YO SLICK SHOW THESE FOOLS WHATS UP
HELL YEAH
ORE DEMON DA
SCRATCHIN' RONIN DA NA
CROSSFADE MY BLADE
CHALLENGE ALL TO INVADE
A DROP FROM A LEAF ON A DISTANT TREE
LIKE THE TIME TO REACT LIKE THE NEEDLE ON WAX
IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS HIP HOP TEST
MY FOE IS THIS GAME NO TIME FOR SHAME
A SLASH TO MY BODY, I FEEL NO PAIN
I RETURN THE BLOW AND LAY THEM DOWN TO REST
CRASHING BEATS EXPLODE
TURNTABLES SPIN LABELS
STEP TO THIS 'CUZ YOU'RE ABLE
NO TIME TO THINK, JUST REACT
AND CRUSH THIS BEAT WITH A BATTLE AX
 
DAY TO NIGHT AND NIGHT TO DAY

DON'T FORGET - THE LAST SAMURAI
DAY TO NIGHT AND NIGHT TO DAY

PUT IT DOWN 'TIL THE END

THERE'S NO LIFE WITHOUT BEATS
YOU'LL DIE IF YOU CHEAT

Music that takes rapping and scratching from hip-hop and mixes it together with hardcore guitar is colloquially referred to as "mixture." With the song SHOWDOWN TO LIVE, I further mixed them together with trance, big beat, and other techno elements to create the song.
 
In my work, I often create dance music tracks that are mainly techno or house, but I like hardcore (punk) and melo-core too, and often go to live shows. And, whenever I go to live shows, I start to think things like "man, being in a band would be cool." Just when I was thinking "OK, for the next song I'll do what I'd do if I formed a band," Togo-chef ordered that he wanted an American street-style track, which turned out to be the start of creating this track.
 
FYI, the rapper who's spitting out cool rhymes in this track is Joey Slick AKA "45," an active DJ who hosts a program on InterFM.
