[English]

Someone is calling out to me, a voice that calls my name

Can I expect it? I’m tired of being betrayed already

So good, but worries still come with it, don’t they

Desperately trying to shake it off and fall asleep at 3 a.m.

It’s quite different from perfection, but still

I love this life anyway

I swear, again and again, no matter how many times

Because standing up again is beautiful

Oh, don’t fear, let’s walk with dignity

Now is the warm-up to shine

I swear, as many times as it takes, anywhere and everywhere

If we believe in ourselves, we can shine

Holding onto an unbreakable wish

Tomorrow, I’ll open the door again

My Brand New World

Could it be that God is testing me?

To see how much I can overcome the walls

But sometimes tears just overflow

I wonder why... it’s 4 a.m., no answers

Don’t pretend you’re tough, I really want to rely on someone

Because I’m weak, that’s just who I am

I swear, again and again, no matter how many times

Drawing dreams and rewriting them again and again

Oh, I’m still far from finishing

Now is a journey to paint my life

I swear, as many times as needed, anywhere and everywhere

If we believe in ourselves, we can shine

Embracing the love I can’t let go of

Tomorrow, I’ll open the door again

My Brand New World

Because I want to be the best version of myself at all times

Today, I’ll give it a try, I’ll test myself

Expectations that swell never end

I swear, again and again, no matter how many times

Because standing up again is beautiful

Oh, don’t fear, let’s walk with dignity

Now is the warm-up to shine

I swear, as many times as needed, anywhere and everywhere

If we believe in ourselves, we can shine

Holding onto an unbreakable wish

Tomorrow, I’ll open the door again

My Brand New World

My Brand New World

[Japanese]

Someone is calling 私を呼ぶ声に

期待していいの？ 裏切られるのは もう嫌だよ

So good でも 不安はつきまとうよね

必死に振り切って 眠りにつく 3AM

完璧とは だいぶ違うけれど

それでも この人生が好き

誓うよ 何度でも そして 何度でも

立ち上がることは 美しいから

Oh 恐れないで 凛として行こう

今は 輝くための Warm up

誓うよ いくらでも そして どこまでも

私たち 信じていれば 輝けるから

ゆずれない 願いを抱いて

明日もまた 扉開けるよ

My Brand New World

もしかして 神様は試しているの？

私がどれだけ 壁を乗り越えられるかを

だけど 時には涙あふれちゃう

なんでなんだろうなぁ 答えなき 4AM

強がらないで 本当は甘えたい

弱いとこも 私だから

誓うよ 何度でも そして 何度でも

夢を描いては また 書き直して

Oh 完成まで まだ遠いけれど

今は 彩るための Journey

誓うよ いくらでも そして どこまでも

私たち 信じていれば 輝けるから

手放せない 愛しさも抱いて

明日もまた 扉開けるよ

My Brand New World

いつだって 最高の私でいたいから

今日も挑んでみるよ 試してみるよ

ふくらむ期待は Never end

誓うよ 何度でも そして 何度でも

立ち上がることは 美しいから

Oh 恐れないで 凛として行こう

今は 輝くための Warm up

誓うよ いくらでも そして どこまでも

私たち 信じていれば 輝けるから

ゆずれない 願いを抱いて

明日もまた 扉開けるよ

My Brand New World
