Lyrics: An open world but nowhere to hide A desperate dream and a fire inside Across land and sea, I’ll never be free A compass leads them back to me Climb from the lowest lows And fall from the highest highs This manhunt chases on and on With our destinies entwined No matter where I run, no, they are never far behind Until I fight and reach the end They’ll call for my demise A single shot at victory, it’s my fate to decide The pressure’s on in this constant chase Until the end of time Caught by surprise The hunters become the hunted Your last sunrise And suddenly fate is twisted This cursed game I’ll play come hell or high water It’s not too late to turn the tides in my favor Climb from the lowest lows And fall from the highest highs This manhunt chases on and on But there’s only one way to survive No matter where I run, no, they are never far behind Until I fight and reach the end They’ll call for my demise A single shot at victory, it’s my fate to decide The pressure’s on in this constant chase Until the end of time Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Until the end of- Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Until the end of time An open world but nowhere to hide This final goal that weighs on my mind Through trial by fire and trial by storm Through thunder and lightning I will be reborn I’ll fight to make this victory mine Until the end of time No matter where I run, no, they are never far behind Until I fight and reach the end They’ll call for my demise A single shot at victory, it’s my fate to decide The pressure’s on in this constant chase Until the end of time Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Until the end of- Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Keep on running on and on Until the end of time

[@neen.mp4]

@@zamanthos937 true! and the opposite of george lmaoo

[@SMBzrocker16]

George is running with sword in hand but he is pumping his arms in time with foot steps. Bad is running with arm tense on his sword in order to seemingly do an overhead swing if he got close. Antfrost has no weapon but in return seems to run faster than the others with faster paw steps. Sam has his axe in hand and has a good grip on it but has a more steady pace than the others, he's also taller too. Sapnap on the other hand is running with a steady pace arm is gripping sword but the arm itself is loose so he is ready to swing at any angle and it screams how each of them likes to play in the manhunts themselves. Truly it is impressive and beautiful

Yup, I have left the dsmp lore but the songs like these still stick with me

[@xxamstormxx]

i really like how the hunters speed shows how well they do, like how Sapnap is the biggest threat in the early game and the strongest in a one on one, so is almost always in the front Meanwhile you have Sam who stays in the back because he will likely figure out what Dreams crazy plan is and will try to warn the other hunters Bad is nearly always in the middle of the pack and does his best to form plans of attack and coordinate with the others Ant is near the back which shows how he is more likely to split off to gather materials and food not often fighting dram unless attacked or cornered Finally George much like Sapnap is quite aggressive in the early game but is far more likely to be killed quickly due to overextending or being tricked At least this is how i remember most manhunts going

[@tisa37bokun57]

I noticed this too!

[@torazely]

There weapons are also telling. Sapnap, George, and Bad all have swords. As the three original hunters, they have the most experience getting weapons easily. Sapnap and Bad have their sowrds down ready to swing, ready to fight, while George's is currently more of an afterthought as he runs, ready to pull backup if needed. Sam meanwhile has an axe, not as strong as the sword, but more useful and technical, while also being a descent weapon in its own right. He'll just as quickly gather items and hang back as he will fight. Meanwhile Ant is seemingly weaponless. However we can't see his hands during the entire thing, hidden by his cloak. This could signifu his more willingness to hang back, not engaging in rhee fights much and more playing as a home base of sorts, but it could also reflect his secrecy in his comvat capabilities, and willingness to use unconventional fighting styles, like potions. He could be unarmed, or he could be holding an armful of potions. We'll never know

[@theoneandonlystork]

Probably my favorite thing about this song is that the lyrics have no direct references to Minecraft. Even though the song is very clearly based on Dream's Minecraft manhunts, it could really describe any type of manhunt or chase.

[@mayasarah5648]

Just like life. We can't run forever. The world Will get on us.

Thats what i love about derivakat, there is often no direct references but there are subtle ones, like in doomsday "the crows are calling for disaster" is a line that anyone Can understand because well its the apocalypse ofc there are crows but if you know more about the dsmp you understand the crows are phil's chat. So many subtle hints yet no direct references so anyone can listen to them regardless of if they are part of the fandom or not

I absolutely love the attention to detail in this song. Like Antfrost not caring a weapon, normally he doesn't run with one. Plus George being left handed and Sapnap/Nick in front which he normally is. I've been waiting for a song like this! @Derivakat Never disappoints with their songs.

[@lysterhine]

[@CodyStriker]

I love the symbolism in the animation 0:33 - Every time it hits a moment like this, it shows off each of their skills and personalities. Sapnap, by himself (the one who can 1v1 Dream alone), wielding a sword and taunting him. Georgenotfound with his sword at the ready (always trying to keep on Dream) along with BBH who has no weapon (He relies on his smarts) Awesamdude carries an axe (acting mainly as the support character), and Antfrost a potion (He is the "resource monkey", ultimate end game character In the first chase, Georgenotfound leads the hunt (He's very brave honestly, and constantly tries to track Dream) Sapnap takes the lead (Best fighter of the team) BBH runs ahead of Antfrost and Sam (Ant and Sam are late game players or support characters, BBH is known to clutch as a Hunter) and eventually matches pace with Sapnap In the second chase, Sapnap now leads with George almost matching pace with him (I suppose to show them fighting Dream) BBH eventually overatakes them all (He acts as leader a lot of the time) Ant and Sam keep pace with each other as George and Sap fall behind (Late game and support characters come in handy) In the third and last chase, Sapnap leads (Usually both him and Dream have really good gear and duel it out) George, BBH, and Ant constantly overtake each other, demonstrating their usefulness to the Hunter team. Eventually Ant leads both of them (Late game character comes in clutch with a LOT of loot) George second (Supporting sapnap) BBH third (Played his role) and of course, Awesamdude at the last (idk why honestly) Or I'm overthinking an amazing animation Edit: I recommend looking at the replies for even more theories!

[@justinalicea1590]

Actually, Badboyhalo is holding a sword as well. But unlike Sapnap holding it with his palm away from himself, he's holding his palm towards himself. So while Sapnap would be ready to raise his arm up and a hard down slash, BBH would do a side swipe. Which still fits the theme of Sapnap being the raw damage and BBH being more methodical. And of course George pumping both arms, including his sword arm, shows his enthusiastic but reckless behavior. And for the last chase with Sam in the back, his axe also represents the ultimate threat due to how much more damage it does, meaning that him staying behind is also in preparation to put a finishing blow on Dream if any other Hunter manages to deal damage.

[@CodyStriker]

@@justinalicea1590 Great point about BBH! Didn't notice that :> Thanks!

[@torazely]

Sam probably was last due to him being the last hunter added. he doesn't have as much experience, so he's following the lead of the others, while still providing his own special skills to the team.

[@torazely]

It's also worth noting that George and Sapnap were the original Hunters, especially George. So having them be in front at the start of the chase could be symbolic of their roles as the originals.

[@CodyStriker]

@@torazely Probably, thanks for the analysis!

[@TheAdvertisement]

I could totally see this being an anime, with Dream each episode working to survive and get closer to the Ender Dragon. Love the echo on "climb" and "fall", echoing their contrast. Also love how when the chorus starts and you can see the Hunters catching up to Dream, Sapnap and George are at the front as they usually are the ones fighting Dream the most, while Bad catches up cus he's usually support but is a great fighter too, and Antfrost and Sam are near the back cus they usually gather resources and set traps up!

[@StaryDreamzzz]

All of the running cycles reflect all of them: Dream normally finds a way to outrun the other hunters, replicating the way he runs Sapnap and Geroge always chase after him first, but normally die too early because they either got too cocky that Dream was going to die or Dream tricked them Bad is in the middle because he warns the others of what Dream is doing, and comes with the others for the kill. Ant doesn't really fight, he collects things. Awesamdude stays in the back to find Dreams plan and alert the others, while trying to kill him at the same time. Also, he may be saving hunger bars so that he can sprint when it's truly needed.

Always the one chasing Dream down in front of the other hunters, Always ending up in a 1V1 against him (Like the Lava Duel or Horse Jousting)He's the resident leader of The Hunters, So having him overtake everyone and getting closest to Dream makes sense

Dang, This Song already feels Nostalgic and I have no idea why? Either way Great Song!

THIS LOOKS SO GOOD! also the way Antfrost runs is just so adorable and cool

[@cmat911]

this is SO catchy and well-made! derivakat is by far my favourite artist of all time! this is one of my favourite songs, and a lot of my favourite songs are writted by derivakat! thank you for making these songs for us, and have a beautiful day!

[@ItzZoZoGacha]

I’m hyped for this! I know it will be so good! I can’t wait this day is amazing! A new Derivikat song and SAD-it’s animation on the same day!

Right time to get obsessed with another song. I love this! And the animation is so beautiful, I love how the hunters changed position each time and the design of Ant was so cute! Can't wait to blast this at 3 am

[@rety8788]

Is it just me or does the walking animation go exactly on the beat

[@araceliventura5395]

Me too

[@someone8934]

I know this song is about minecraft manhunts, but i also interpreted it as a constant chase of your internal demons trying to get inside your head... the chase is never-ending and we have to "keep running on and on until the end of time" to beat them. Idk if the lyrics were supposed to have multiple meanings, but this one really resonates with me as a person who overcame depression :)

[@lapetus7695]

“The hunters become hunted” so true so true, I also really love the animation and the rhythm of the song makes the whole atmosphere really energetic, aesthetic and so inspiring it gives me anime opening vibes for some reason even I don’t watch anime which is cool what if "I see a dreamer" and this had a mashup cause their bosh manhunt songs

[@v0iddoesgacha]

The people who make animations or songs for manhunt really capsulate the vibes of the adrenaline in the air through music and animation and little details and call backs

[@gabrielmyrddin]

If i didnt have to head into work, i would still be listening to it on repeat, because the song is just amazing. The lyrics are on point, the music has a perfect flow to it, the animation is amazing, my facorite part is the fact that each person has a distinct personality in something so simple as a chase, and i love it. Keep up the amazing work!!

[@zestycalamari]

Manhunt changed to child hunt very fast

[@wooh_M.A.G.I.C.]

OK NO THIS SONG IS ACTUALLY SO FIRE WHAT? ITS SO GOOD? HUH? I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS SONG TO HAVE THIS STYLE I THOUGHT IT’D BE CLOSER TO I SEE A DREAMER- ITS SO GOOOOOOOD OMG POP OFF QUEEN YOU ABSOLUTE GIRLBOSSING MATERIAL GIRL THATS ALL I GOTTA SAY MAN

[@cookiecrumbs9515]

Song is amazing. Lyrics amazing. Animation amazing. ALL OF IT IS PERFECT- *Also lets admire how antfrost looks when he runs- super cute-*

[@anhkari257]

I really like how Dream's walk is on beat with the music. It's such a cool detail

[@innittommy9736]

"Caught by surprise, The hunters become the hunted" I laughed so hard at that, that's so true lol

[@lukascrozoe7883]

I like how sapnap is always in the lead, since he always goes In first whenever he fights dream

[@thunderbro7218]

Don’t want to diss the animator if this wasn’t intentional but I love how dream walks. It’s so much like how the Minecraft players move

[@Killjoyous__]

It’s almost like he’s relaxed but hasn’t let his guard down. He still wants to make good ground so he’s briskly speedwalking casually through a field lmao

[@ranhoes]

THE ART WORK IS SO AMAZING HOLY COW, it truly matches amazingly with your song, TRUELY PROUD!!

[@Changbinsbum]

Agreed I really like the art work

[@song1of1fire1]

I really love the animation where dream jumps from surprise into running full tilt - it's impressively smooth.

[@pocahontas27]

the chase during the chorus is really cool :D

[@staystray_143]

Premiere hasn't started yet but I already know its about to be 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Mmelodramatic]

The animation is so subtle but so good, how he starts walking and then runs from the hunters 🤩

[@devi---]

Im literally addicted to your music. It's just so good, like you're voice and the electric guitar flows so nicely.

Hi

[@fionnnellis2117]

Derivakat, keep on going on and on with these songs. They are incredible!

[@Chat3rror]

Okay... I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE ART! It's so cool and I like how Dream looks. What I like most is long their legs are. It just adds. It looks good. (And it sounds perfect too!)

[@Lokio_123]

This song should be in the manhunt

[@sawahkat9806]

YO BUT THAT GUITAR WAS SO FRIGGIN GOOD CARTIAN 🔥

[@aliased_aryl]

George being the only one carrying a weapon in his left hand is what really sells it for me

[@catwarriorhazelstar]

it's cuz he's left handed

[@flaming_mc]

I LOVE ANTFROST'S DESIGN AAAAA

[@Alyssa-wn1yb]

To be honest, THIS SONG IS SO GOOD and dream if he ever wants to make a other manhunt series man he has to use this for the opening. It’s like a dream manhunt anime opening song and I really love this song! I hope he uses it ❤️

[@HushChilds]

AMAZING SONG, AMAZING ANIMATION, AMAZING EVERYTHING!!!!!!!

2:26 this is the best line EVER. Keep up the awesome work!

I love how when they are all running the hunters even change who's in front and behind

This song is literally a masterpiece. And the music video and animation is perfection.

This is legendary and a little sober because the series is supposedly over

[@sashak8530]

OH MY GOSH. ever since you released that snippet, I loved it. and I was sad it wasn't a planned song at that moment. and then you announced you WERE working on it, and I was so effing hyped. AND THE FULL SONG IS SO MUCH BETTER. you added so much. the energy, the flow, the lyrics. I love this so much. and absolutely amazing animation! it's stunning, I love all the designs. and I love the lyrics, they lay perfectly on the beat. thank you for this banger

[@binitathakuria5170]

I cannot stop thinking about how perfectly this song goes with Percy Jackson

[@sanskirby6481]

Legit, it feels like if Manhunt was an anime, this would be a ABSOLUTLY PERFECT opening. This is not even fire at this point, it's the whole nether. I ABSOLUTLY love this song.
