[English]

I learned the reason I can become stronger

Take me with you and move forward

I get drunk on a mud‑covered whirl of memories

A hardened heart, trembling hands

I just want to grasp something, that's all

In the scent of night

Even if I stare at the sky

Only I can change myself

That's all

I learned the reason I can become stronger

Take me with you and move forward

No matter what!

Even an unerasable dream and an unstoppable present

If I can become strong for someone else

Rise up as many times as needed

Being struck down by the world

I learned the meaning of being born

Crimson blaze flower, bloom proudly!

Illuminate destiny

I learned the reason I can become stronger

Take me with you and move forward

I get drunk on a mud‑covered whirl of memories

A hardened heart, trembling hands

I just want to grasp something, that's all

In the scent of night

Even if I stare at the sky

Only I can change myself

That's all

I learned the reason I can become stronger

Take me with you and move forward

No matter what!

Even an unerasable dream and an unstoppable present

If I can become strong for someone else

Rise up as many times as needed

Being struck down by the world

I learned the meaning of being born

Crimson blaze flower, bloom proudly!

Illuminate destiny
