Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
もうよして
ナンでもないんなら閉め切った
キミの部屋はまるでプリズン
真っ暗なパラダイス
ナイフ じゃ切れない闇を裂け
眠い目を覚ませ
リアルなキミでいいンじゃない
キミはキミでいい
深呼吸して 飛び出そう
いっさいがっさいブッちぎって
面倒なコトはあとで
どうすンの? 100万年待っているの?
今日なんてもう興味もないの?
明日も今日とおなじでもいいの?
そんなんでイイわけない
Cry 聞こえてる
キミの声 絶望なんか まださ
生まれた日 思い出そう
一生懸命だったじゃない
けっこう頑張ってたじゃない
胸に抱いてる気持ちは
Crazy だって funky だって
ぜんぜん堂々してればいい
ワタシも ひとりだよ
キミだけじゃないよ
でも気づいて目を閉じなけりゃ
ひとりに なんかならない
誰にもならなくていい
ドアを蹴り破って さぁおいで
リアルな キミを生きろ
泣いても笑っても yeah!
キミはキミしかいない
深呼吸して 飛び出そう
いっさいがっさいブッちぎって
面倒なコトはあとで
The lyrics of BoA's "So Real" convey a message of self-empowerment and taking control of one's life. The song opens with questioning why the subject is wearing such a sad expression, urging them to let it go as it is not worth the trouble. The lyrics describe their room as a prison, a dark paradise that can only be shattered by the light of the subject's true self. The song's chorus encourages the subject to embrace their reality and not just settle for dreams, that they should breathe deeply and launch themselves into the world by tearing down all obstacles in a forceful manner.
The song's second verse is more introspective, asking the subject if they are genuinely happy or just waiting for something to happen for them. The song encourages them to look back to when they were born and the effort they have put in, reminding them that they have been strong and resilient during their journey. They are reminded that they do not have to go through their struggles alone, that the singer is also by their side, cheering them on to keep moving forward.
Overall, the song encourages listeners to embrace their reality, take control of their lives, and not settle for less. It is an uplifting track that inspires the listener to find their inner power and rise above all obstacles.
