Description
Here, the energy resembles the morning air after rain - it smells of citrus, asphalt, and freedom. The words sound like an inner cry that what is important is not always loud: you can walk along winding alleys, cast off old fears, drop your ‘correct’ masks and still find happiness in what you hold close.
There is a sense of movement in every verse - as if your heart is racing down the runway, ready to shoot straight into the sky. This is a song about real strength, not about armour and fists, but about the determination not to let go, about loyalty that does not fade, and about freedom that grows even through concrete, like stubborn grass.
Lyrics and translation
Original
熱を奪っていく路地裏の香りが
昨日までの僕忘れさせたんだ
酸いも甘いも捨て平凡に埋もれても
ここにある幸福は何にも代え難い
指差し 笑われたとして
極める道 褪せることなく
右か左 迷ったなら
真っ直ぐに飛べ
離さないって決めたから
守りたいって言ったのさ
ホンモノの強さだけ見つけたくて
今未練なんかこれっぽっちも無い
無作為に伸びてる雑草も
自由を掴んでる
それぞれの未来が咲き誇る
君といれば
絆されてしまったシトラスの香りに
強く心の臓掴まれた様で
上手く笑えてるあの日の僕らよりも
悩み方すら忘れた誇らしい愛情
そぞろに鼻を利かせては
誰かに怯えて生きるより
上も下も無い世界で
包み込んで
離さないって決めたから
守りたいって言ったのさ
ホンモノの強さだけ見つけたくて
今未練なんかこれっぽっちも無い
もどかしく燻る滑走路
身動き取れずに
後手後手にまわり沈むのなら
空へカケろ
優しさが 溢れないようにずっと
何が起きようと変わらないままで
離さないって決めたから
守りたいって言ったのさ
ホンモノの強さだけ見つけたくて
今未練なんかこれっぽっちも無い
無作為に伸びてる雑草も
自由を掴んでる
それぞれの未来が咲き誇る
君といれば
English translation
The scent of the back alley takes away the heat
I made you forget who I was until yesterday
Even if I throw away the sour and sweet and bury myself in mediocrity
The happiness here is irreplaceable
Pointing at me, even though I was laughed at
The path to mastering never fades
Right or left? If you can't decide
fly straight
Because I decided not to let you go
I said I wanted to protect you.
I just want to find true strength
I don't have any regrets right now.
Weeds growing randomly
I'm grabbing my freedom
Each future is in full bloom
When I'm with you
The scent of citrus that has bonded me
It's like my heart was gripped tightly
Even better than us that day when we could laugh better
A proud love that even forgot how to worry
Let's use our noses
Rather than live in fear of someone
In a world with no top or bottom
Wrap it up
Because I decided not to let you go
I said I wanted to protect you.
I just want to find true strength
I don't have any regrets right now.
A frustratingly smoldering runway
unable to move
If you fall behind and sink
Shoot into the sky
Always so that your kindness won't overflow
No matter what happens, stay the same
Because I decided not to let you go
I said I wanted to protect you.
I just want to find true strength
I don't have any regrets right now.
Weeds growing randomly
I'm grabbing my freedom
Each future is in full bloom
When I'm with you
