Lyrics

haruka tooku ni ukabu hoshi wo
omoi nemuri ni tsuku kimi no
erabu mirai ga nozomu michi ga
doko e tsuzuiteite mo
tomo ni ikiru kara

zutto mukashi no kioku
tsurerarete kita kono hoshi de kimi wa
negai tsuzuketeta
tooku de kirameku keshiki ni
tobikomu koto ga dekita no nara

hitori kodoku na sekai de inori negau
yume wo egaki mirai wo miru
nigedasu yori mo susumu koto wo
kimi ga eranda no nara

dareka ga egaita imeeji janakute
dareka ga eranda suteeji janakute
bokutachi ga tsukute iku sutoorii
kesshite hitori ni wa sasenai kara
itsuka sono mune ni himeta
yaiba ga kusari wo tachikiru made
zutto tomo ni tatakau yo

kime tsukerareta unmei
sonna no kowashite
bokutachi wa ayatsuri ningyou janai
kimi no sekai da 
kimi no mirai da
donna monogatari ni demo dekiru

nigeru you ni kakureru you ni
norikonde kita kokupitto ni wa
nakimushi na kimi wa mou inai
itsunomanika konna ni tsuyoku

kore wa kimi no jinsei
(dare no mono demo nai)
sore wa kotae nante nai
(jibun de erabu michi)
mou jubaku wa toite
sadamerareta fikushon kara ima
tobidasun da
tobitatsun da

dare ni mo oitsukenai supiido de
jimen keri age sora wo mau
noroi norowareta mirai wa
kimi ga sono te de kaete yukun da
nigezu ni susunda koto de kitto
tsukameru mono ga takusan aru yo
motto tsuyoku nareru
kono hoshi ni umareta koto
kono sekai de iki tsuzukeru koto
sono subete wo aiseru you ni
meippai no shukufuku wo kimi ni

English Translation

Far in the distance, the floating stars
As you drift into sleep with thoughts
The chosen future, the desired path
No matter where it leads
I'll live together

In the memories of a long time ago
On this star that brought you here
You kept wishing
If I could dive
into the shining scenery far away

Alone, in a solitary world, I pray and wish
Dreaming of the future
Choosing to move forward rather than escape
If that's what you've chosen

Not an image someone else painted
Not a stage someone else chose
The story we create together
I will never let anyone be alone
Until the blade hidden in your heart
Breaks the chains
I'll fight together forever

The predetermined fate
Break through that
We are not puppets being manipulated
It's your world
It's your future
Can be any kind of story

Rather than running away or hiding
In the cockpit you entered
The crybaby you once were is no more
Unnoticed, you've become so strong

This is your life 
(not anyone else's)
There's no definite answer 
(choose your own path)
Break free from the curse
Now, from the predetermined fiction
Leap out
Take flight

At a speed no one can catch up with
Kick the ground, dance in the sky
The cursed future
You will change it with your own hands
By moving forward without running away
There are surely many things you can grasp
Become even stronger
Being born on this star
Continuing to live in this world
So that you can love everything
Wishing you full blessings
