Promised Land
一穂 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
リアルな現実と かなわない夢、希望
運命がいたずらに僕を 引きずり込んでいる
見えない愛を信じ 君の手を握りしめ
この曖昧な世界を壊し 光 輝く未来へ
Ah 溶けてゆく 琥珀色の空よ
さぁ 弾け飛ぶ つきぬけて どこまでも
明日がやってくるなら 漆黒の闇を抜け
愛と I walk with you
幼い頃の素直な 空想、笑顔、涙も
時が経つにつれ 灰色になっていく現実
けれど君の流した涙 ホンモノだから
胸の痛み抱えながら 生きてゆかなければ
さあ おちてゆく 銀色の雨よ
Ah 浴びながら つきぬけて どこまでも
愛のオーラを抱きしめ 僕らは歩き出す
遠く果てなき この世界 その道の途中で
愛と I hope for the future
夢と刹那を抱いて 君と歩いていく
愛のオーラを抱きしめ 僕らは歩き出す
遠く果てなき この世界
Everytime、I feel so good！
On the fate of the aura 君と歩いていく
The song "Promised Land" by 一穂 captures the desire to reach a better future, a place of happiness and acceptance with oneself and the world. The lyrics speak of walking towards this land with dreams and momentary happiness in mind, aware of the contrast with the harshness of reality. The singer believes in an invisible love that cannot be seen but that connects them to the person they are with, and through this connection, they find the strength to break down the walls of ambiguity holding them back. The amber-colored sky melting away, the silver rain falling, both serve as metaphors for the struggle towards a free and fulfilling life, one that promises hope and light instead of darkness and despair.
The song continues to acknowledge the fragility of this journey towards a Promised Land, as life can be tough and draining. However, the singer chooses to hold onto the realness of tears and the honesty of pain as reminders of their human experience, even when everything else loses colors and ideals fade away. The song concludes on a note of hope, refusing to give up on the idea of love and the excitement of every new day. Together, the lyrics urge listeners to believe in a brighter future and to find the courage to walk towards it, even if the path is uncertain and difficult.
