Lyrics & Translation
Fighting rising anxiety
The pain I saw in my dreams back then
Now facing all of it, the pain to come
Why? Why? Why me?
The answer is already set
Stand tall and face what's strong and large
That's right
Be prepared to protect what matters most
The only trait is never giving up
Move forward, pushing difficulties away
Take confident steps
I will face them
I can't stop now
Keep walking, where are you headed?
The light I saw in my dreams back then
Was exactly the light I imagined
Why? Why? Why me?
The answer is already set
Stand tall and face what's strong and large
That's right
While shaking off difficulties that rain down
Is it fate to keep walking this path?
You can't proceed like that
Beyond that day
Resentment and emptiness
I won't forget, TOMORROW
The unreachable future
If I struggle and reach out
Prepared to protect what matters most
The only trait is never giving up
Move forward, pushing difficulties away
Take confident steps
I will face them
