Track Description
Available in:
"The Only Thing I Know for Real" is the boss theme for Samuel Rodrigues in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.
The lyrics describe how he has forgotten the reasons why he fights, but that he can't stop himself because he feels as though it is the only way he knows how to live. The lyrics references Raiden and Sam’s final duel, and his involvement in Desperado Enforcement LLC.
Another way this song may be interpreted is that it is the theme of Raiden and the struggle he faces at that point in the story. The lyrics "Losing my identity/Wondering have I gone insane" align with the identity crisis Raiden finds himself in, wondering if he is who he wishes to be, Raiden, or the man he used to be, Jack. Also, the lyrics "To find the truth in front of me/I must climb this mountain range" suggest that in order for Raiden to find out which identity is truly him, he must overcome Samuel, a man who was once an insurmountable opponent.
The demo version of this song is "heavier" than the main game's Maniac Agenda Mix; voice, drums and battery are most pronounced, like Locked & Loaded. Unlike most of the boss themes, the lyrics are lost in the second phase of the fight, when Sam is forced to rely on his cybernetic arm and martial arts skills. Some of the lyrics mention a “mountain,” which is his goal to realize why he fights. The lyrics, “Because the mountains don’t give back what they take” references him losing his arm before the events of the main game. The lyrics, “It’s only the cold wind I feel” could be referencing the Winds of Destruction.
