That's What the World Is Like

Intrigue and deceit, debate between life and death Gratitude, resentment, and constant entanglement Past and present life, origin and destruction A twisted world like a birdcage, an unbreakable cycle of cause and effect The gradually collapsing order, the old friends becoming blurred Those who live forever wait forever, those who calculate all the secrets fall into madness Those who value love and justice are betrayed, and those who care about all sentient beings bear a blood debt. The wealthy and prosperous have their families ruined, and the innocent become puppets. We get along day and night, each with his or her own agenda, and when we meet again after a long separation, things are different and people are different The chess piece flips the board, the hero languishes, the beauty is disfigured Jianghu, that's what it is
