ふざけあって 許しあって
未来へと 繋がってく

The lyrics of Horie Yui's song, Say cheese!, are about the strong bond of friendship and the memories that are made with those special friends. The opening lines are about how friends laugh together, support each other, and even play pranks on each other, but ultimately, they forgive each other, which strengthens the bond that they have. As they look to the future, they can see that their friendship will continue to grow.
The lyrics also reminisce about childhood memories with friends and how they would argue or have misunderstandings, but ultimately, they would resolve their issues because of their strong friendship. The chorus of the song repeats the idea of laughing, supporting, and forgiving each other, with an added sense of optimism towards the future.
Towards the end of the song, the lyrics shift to how when feeling down or alone, one must remember that they are never truly alone because their friends are always with them. They encourage each other to express their feelings, understand each other, and pursue happiness together. The final line calls for a group photo to capture the moment of joy, symbolizing the importance of memories and the impact of good friends.
