雲ひとつない
Let's fly to the sky
雲ひとつない
Let's fly to the sky
キミだけの風集めて
誰も見たことない
イマジネーション 空に描いて
OH!!OH!! ギラギラ照らされても
OH!!OH!! キミなら行けるさ!!
プライドなんて脱ぎ捨ててFLY!!
単純明快なEvery day!
So実力が世界を回して
ごまかしはもう通じねぇ
キミも赤信号点滅さメーデー
お耳を拝借!
And I'm gonna stuck on my RAP!
んでWussup!って挨拶!
『明日から本気出します!』とか
弱音マジで吐き出す
夢で増やせ万札! 時は金なりlike
NASDAQ! when do you do it boy?
It's now or never man!
今でしょ?
Everybody put ya
hands in the air and
clap ya hands
like this like that
clap ya hands everybody!
Everybody just clap ya hands!
Let's fly to the sky
キミだけの風集めて

The lyrics to BACK-ON's song Departure are about breaking free from limitations and chasing after dreams. The song encourages the listener to imagine their own unique destination and then take flight towards it, leaving behind their pride and fears. The chorus embodies a feeling of liberation, with lines such as "Let's fly to the sky, with no clouds in sight" and "Let's gather the wind just for you." The lyrics also express the idea that success and happiness come from hard work and perseverance rather than mere luck or privilege.
One interesting fact about Departure is that it is the opening theme song for the anime series "Air Gear." Another is that the song was written and performed by the Japanese rock band BACK-ON, which was formed in 2002 and is known for blending rock and hip-hop genres in its music. Departure was released as a single in 2006 and later included on the band's full album "Yes!!!". The song features rap verses as well as sung choruses and has become a popular anthem for self-motivation and empowerment. In addition, the music video for Departure features animations from the Air Gear anime series and shows the members of BACK-ON performing on a futuristic, neon-lit stage.
