くいさがってきたけど
でもどうやら ボクはまったくフツーらしい
ということは 何ができるのか
自分を誤解したままで
つっぱしるのはやめて
つきぬけたい ボクはボクなりのやり方で
もってるもんで やるしかないだろう yeah
迷いながら ぐらつきながら それでも必死
そんなやつが 今日から主人公
身を挺して きみを守り 筋を通せる
男でいたかったけど
まちがいなく ボクはたいくつな弱虫
それならば どんな役割なの
鏡の中には映らない
自分のとんがってるところ
見つけたなら ひたすら磨いてみろよ
なんとかしたい 誰かといっしょじゃなくていい
もってるもんで やるしかないだろう yeah
吹きあれる うかれたさわぎの その後に
自分で立ってるのが主人公
ポケットひっくりかえせ
シャツをぬぎすてろ
その姿をよくみりゃいい
つきぬけたい ボクはボクなりのやり方で
もってるもんで やるしかないだろう
星のように はでじゃないけれど ちゃんとしてる
そんなやつが 今日こそ主人公
そんな自分を この世にささげよう
ブキを手に入れろ
1コしかないやつを
ブキを手に入れろよ
誰も傷つけないやつを
The lyrics of the song "主人公" by 昆虫キッズ talks about wanting to be the singer or the main character in one's life. The song begins with the singer expressing his desire to be someone who is chosen and special. However, he soon realizes that he is just an ordinary person, and wonders what he can do to change that. He then talks about not wanting to force himself into something he is not, and changing the story or the script of his life.
The chorus talks about wanting to rise above and be someone exceptional, but to do it in his own way. The singer talks about his uncertainty, but still being determined to make something of himself. He then goes on to talk about wanting to protect someone important, but feeling weak and useless. He questions what his role in life could be, and talks about finding his strengths and honing them.
The song concludes with the singer urging himself and the listener to flip their pockets and take off their shirts in order to find their true selves. He talks about wanting to be unique and achieve great things, but being okay with not being flashy or showy. The last lines of the song encourage the listener to find something that they are passionate about, something that does not hurt anyone.
