lyrics

There is a spectre just in front of me
And in this moment, I have to compete
Watashi wa hosshi ni kachitai
I will be something, one day

You’ll reach a point where winning is not good enough
You’ll wanna’ destroy them,
But it’s unlike you—unlike you
Never put your passion before principle
Maybe I’m too desperate, but I came this far
Can I stop?
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Mi a gi i’ all mi hab jus tuh keep ih togedda
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Maybe wen mi dead, yuh a guh bi weh mi stan

But there’s that spectre just in front of me
And in this moment, I have to compete
Watashi wa hosshi ni kachitai
I will be something, one day

You’ll reach a point where losing’s just a better way
To learn about yourself
The whole world is watching you fail
Never put your pleasure before principle
Maybe I’m old-fashioned,
But there’s value in discipline…
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Mi a gi all mi hab jus tuh keep ih togedda
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Maybe wen mi dead, yuh a guh bi weh mi stan

But there’s that spectre just in front of me
And in this moment, I have to compete

Kore igai ga hoshikunai
Hitsuyōna no wa sore dakedesu
Kami igai dare mo watashi no tomenaidarou

Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Mi a gi all mi hab jus tuh keep ih togedda
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Ahuu a lavi’ now?
Maybe wen mi dead, yuh a guh bi weh mi stan

Kore igai ga hoshikunai
Hitsuyōna no wa sore dakedesu
Kami igai dare mo watashi no tomenaidarou
Oretachi ishou ni dekimasu
Ganbattemo hitori de wa dekinai
Kore wa daremo ga matteita shunkandesu, shippai ikenai

I know the spectre just in front of me’s
The only reason I have to compete
Watashi wa hosshi ni kachitai
If just to prove you all wrong

Kore igai ga hoshikunai
Hitsuyōna no wa sore dakedesu
Kami igai dare mo watashi no tomenaidarou
Oretachi ishou ni dekimasu
Ganbattemo hitori de wa dekinai
Kore wa daremo ga matteita shunkandesu, shippai ikenai
