I was thinking one day as I was listening to this song that Naruto fit part of the lyrics, since he's always standing alone in battle, even when he has back up he's alone. This is a little old. The concept is that after his talk with Nagato, he went off after Madara.
Lyrics
"Talking"
'Thinking'
Words
This is best read with the song playing.
I don't own the Lyrics or the character. And neither do you. Thus, you can't sue me. Rated for language.
Naruto raced through the treetops after his interview with Nagato. The dying man had placed all of his trust in him, and he wouldn't let it go to waste. He would end the Akatsuki's plans. One way or another.
Ooooooo
I've been travelin on this road too long
'They would have never let me come and do this alone.'
Just trying to find my way back home
'But I'm not the old me anymore.'
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
'I'm not the brat that yelled about being Hokage with no clue what I was doing.'
Ooooooo
I've been travelin on this road too long
'I'm not the helpless Jinchiriki that they all have to protect.'
Just trying to find my way back home
'I'm not the idiot dead-last loser anymore.'
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
Ever had one of them days
Wish you would of stayed home
Run into a group of niggas
Who getting they hate on
You walk by
They get wrong, you reply
Then shit get blown
Way outta proportion
Way past discussion
Just you against them,
Pick one then rush em
Figure you'll get jumped
Hell, that's nothing
They don't wanna stop there
Now they bussing
Now you gushing, ambulance
Rushing you to the hospital
With a bad concussion
Plus you hit four times
Bullet hit your spine
Paralyzed waist down
Now ya wheel chair bound
Never mind that now
You lucky to be alive,
Just think it all started
You fussing with three guys
Now your pride in the way
But your pride is the way
You could fuck around
Get shot die any day
Niggas die every day
All over bull shit
Dope money dice game,
Ordinary hood shit
Could this be
Cause of hip hop music
Or did the ones
With the good sense
Not use it
Usually niggas
Don't know what to do
When their back
Against the wall
So they just start shooting
For red or for blue
Or for blood I guess,
From Bankhead
Or from your projects
No more stress,
Now I'm straight,
Now I get it now I take
Time to think,
Before I make mistakes
Just for my families sake
That part of me left yesterday
The heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say
The old me dead and gone away.
'I've been through so many tough spots.'
Ooooooo
I've been traveling on this road too long
'Mizuki, the Wave mission, the Chunin Exams,'
Just trying to find my way back home
'Losing Old man Hokage,'
The old me is dead and gone
'Losing Sasuke to the Sound,'
Dead and gone
'And I did some great things.'
Ooooooo
I've been traveling on this road too long
'I revived the spirit of the Wave Country,'
Just trying to find my way back home
'I brought back granny Tsunade.'
The old me is dead and gone
'And I just saved all of Konoha,'
Dead and gone
'I've done a lot.'
I ain't never been scared,
I lived through tragedy
Situation could of been dead
Looking back at it
Most of that shit
Didn't even have to happen
But you don't think about it
When you out there trapping
In apartments hanging
Smoking and rapping
Niggas start shit
Next thing you know we capping
Get locked up
Then didn't even get mad
Now think about damn
What a life I had
Most of that shit
Look back just laugh
Some shit
Still look back get sad
Maybe my homeboy
Still be around
Had I not
Hit the nigga
In the mouth that time
I won that fight, I lost that war
I can still see my nigga
Walking out that door
Who'd of thought I'd never see
Philant no more
Got enough dead homies
I don't want no more
Cost a nigga his job,
Cost me more
I'd of took that ass-whooping
Now for sure
Now I think before I risk my life
Take them chances to get my stripe
A nigga put his hands on me alright
Otherwise stand there
Talk shit all night
Cause I hit you , and you sue me,
I shoot you, get locked up, who me?
No more stress, now I'm straight,
Now I get it now I take
Time to think
Before I make mistakes
Just for my families sake
That part of me left yesterday
The heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say
The old me dead and gone away.
Ooooooo
I've been travelin on this road too long
Naruto finally stopped at the edge of a clearing with a perfect view of his destroyed village.
Just trying to find my way back home
'There he is. Just like Nagato said.'
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
'A black cloak with red clouds. A spiraling orange mask.'
Ooooooo
I've been traveling on this road too long
'Short red hair. And a Sharringan eye.'
Just trying to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
"Who do you think you are to try and take me on your own?" the dark cloaked man said.
I turn my head to the east
A flash of pink hair.
I don't see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west
The edge of a dog eared book.
Still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north,
Black hair and eyes over a superior smirk.
Swallow that pill that they call pride
'Sorry guys.'
That old me 's dead and gone,
But that new me 'll be all right
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki, Son of the Yondaime Hokage Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki,
I turn my head to the east
I don't see nobody by my side
"Jinchuriki of the Kyuubi no Kitsune, apprentice to the Toad Sage Jiraiya,
I turn my head to the west
Still nobody in sight
"Gennin of Konohagakure no Sato. And for your crimes against Konoha and the world,
So I turn my head to the north,
Swallow that pill that they call pride
"Your Executioner!"
That old me 's dead and gone,
But that new me 'll be all right
"If you're really ready to die, then I'll happily oblige you," Madara said, the Mangekyou Sharingan spinning in his eye.
Ooooooo
I've been travelin on this road too long
"Taju Kage Bunshin Daibakuha no Jutsu!" Madara and Naruto were surrounded by thousands of Naruto clones.
Just trying to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
"I'm taking you with me to the next world!" All of the Naruto's proclaimed as they closed with their final opponent.
Ooooooo
I've been travelin on this road too long
Naruto smiled sadly.
Just trying to find my way back home
'Mina.'
The old me is dead and gone
'Sayonara.'
Dead and gone
"KAI!"
