Soul Full of Music

• By: 鈴木瑛美子

Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

頭からつま先まで音楽に満ちたsoul

A soul filled with music from head to toe

わがまま！思うがまま！心の赴くまま

Selfish! Do as I please! As my heart desires

女は女、男は男と遊ぶって誰が決めたの？

Who decided that women are women and men are men to play around?

I can do anything that I want to

I can do anything that I want to

自由の重みを背に

Carrying the weight of freedom on my back

Ain’t nobody nobody can be like me

Ain't nobody, nobody can be like me

おわれ 呑まれ 壊れ

Overcome, swallowed, broken

I can do anything that I want to

I can do anything that I want to

自分の弱みを知り

Knowing my own weaknesses

Ain’t nobody nobody can be like me

Ain't nobody, nobody can be like me

貫く己のbow and arrow

Stand firm with my own bow and arrow
