Lyrics

hajimari no aizu wa itsu demo totsuzen narihibiite
hashiridasu kodou mou tomerarenai wa
tatoeba ijiwaru na dareka ni warawareta to shite mo
donkan de junshin na furi shite idomitai

machiwabita toki wa ima! atarashii doa wo hiraku
kouritsuita kokoro wo tokashite kureru merodi
kuchizusande kimi ni mo todoketai

kaze ni notte tonde yuke kisetsu ni saku hana no you ni
yure nagara sagashiteta yorokobi ni deaeru uta wo
wasurenaide
ikutsumo no hibi wo koete houseki ni naru kimi no namida
yoru ni oite kita negaigoto wo mukae ni yukou
mabushiku kagayaiteru asahi no hou e

ameagari no sora ni niji ga kakaru to wa kagiranai
demo utsumuite bakka ja minogashichau wa
you wa donna shunkan mo hinto ni dekiru mugen no souzouryoku
more junbibantan please me! please me! kami-sama

machigai mo seikai mo nai jibun dake no chizu wo egaku
tsumiagete kita mono wo kowashite tadoritsuita
keshiki ga aru

tsutaetai kanaetai mamoritai uso janai
mezashiteta mirai made ato sukoshi
yowaki na jibun ni maketakunai yo
nanmankai datte hikari ni te wo nobasou

sekaijuu ni tonde yuke anata ni utatteru yo
mune ippai ni afuredasu umaretate no yorokobi wo
dakishimete
ikutsumo no hibi wo koete
utaeru yo ima kono “masutaapiisu”
yoru ga owattara negaigoto wo kanae ni yukou
doko made mo tsuzuite iku tabiji no mukou e

English Translation

A starting signal always rings out suddenly
My racing heartbeat can no longer be stopped
Even if I'm laughed at by someone mean-spirited
I want to challenge myself to pretend to be impervious and innocent

The time I've waited impatiently for is right now! I'll open a new door
And a melody will melt my frozen heart
I want to hum and send it to you too

We'll ride on the wind like flowers blooming in season
Don't forget the song that let us encounter the joy we looked for
As we swayed
Overcoming these several days have turned your tears into gems
Let's pick up the wishes we left behind in the night
And head towards the dazzling morning sun

A rainbow spanning across the sky after it rains is endless
But you'll miss it if all you're doing is hanging your head down
The point is that infinite imagination can give you a hint at any moment
Let's prepare some more - Please me! Please me! God

I'll draw my own map with no mistakes nor correct answers
There's a landscape that I'll arrive at
After breaking what's been piled up

I want to convey, grant, and protect - it's the truth
The future I've aimed for is almost here
I don't want to lose to my timid self
I'll reach out my hand to the light tens of thousands of times

I'm flying around the world and singing to you
As I embrace the newborn joy that's overflowing
In my heart
I've overcome these several days
To be able to sing this "masterpiece" now
When the night ends, let's make our wishes come true
And head towards an endless journey
