from MY STORY album.
——
Like a bird which had forgotten how to fly
I had forgotten how to walk
As I continued to run earnestly
Sometimes it feels long, sometimes short
I turn to look back now
At the distance of this road
Yes, this is the road I chose
Hey, the footprints I’ve left along the way
Are all crooked and muddy
Hey, but I don’t feel even the tiniest regret
Instead, I feel pride from my heart
Yes, this is the road I chose
Hey, the footprints I’ve left along the way
Are all crooked and muddy
Hey, but I don’t feel even the tiniest regret
Instead, I feel pride from my heart
Hey, even now, I can’t live well
I’m not such a skillful person
Hey, but if I can declare one thing
I’ll continue to walk down this road with pride
Someday, a bird which had forgotten how to fly
Will take off and soar once again
Just like how I have stepped out

Tobi kata wasureta tori no you ni
Aruki kata wo wasureta boku wa
Tada hitasura hashiri tsuzuketa
Nagakatta you na mijikakatta you na
Sonna michinori wo ima
Furikaette nagamete miru
Sou kore ga boku no eranda michi
Nee boku ga nokoshite kita ashiato wa sa
Ibitsude doro darake dattari suru yo
Nee dakedo sukoshimo kuyande nanka nai yo
Kokoro kara hokori ni omotterun da
Sou kore ga boku no eranda michi
Nee boku ga nokoshite kita ashiato wa sa
Ibitsude doro darake dattari suru yo
Nee dakedo sukoshimo kuyande nanka nai yo
Kokoro kara hokori ni omotterun da
Nee ima mo umaku wa ikirenai yo
Sonna ni kiyou na boku ja nain da
Nee dakedo hitotsu dake ieru toshitara
Korekaramo mune wo hatte kono michi wo yuku sa
Tobi kata wasureta tori wa itsuka
Mou ichido habatakeru darou
Boku ga aruki daseta you ni

飛び方忘れた鳥のように
歩き方を忘れた僕は
ただひたすら走り続けた
長かったような短かったような
そんな道のりを今
振り返って眺めてみる
そうこれが僕の選んだ道
ねぇ僕が残して来た足跡はさ
いびつで泥だらけだったりするよ
ねぇだけど少しも悔やんでなんかないよ
心から誇りに思ってるんだ
そうこれが僕の選んだ道
ねぇ僕が残して来た足跡はさ
いびつで泥だらけだったりするよ
ねぇだけど少しも悔やんでなんかないよ
心から誇りに思ってるんだ
ねぇ今もうまくは生きれないよ
そんなに器用な僕じゃないんだ
ねぇだけどひとつだけ言えるとしたら
これからも胸を張ってこの道を行くさ
飛び方忘れた鳥はいつか
もう一度はばたけるだろう
僕が歩き出せたように
