Some interesting things to note..
-At the contest where they made their first debut, the name they gave themselves was SEPIA. Because of their debut however, they realized that it wasn't the best name for them, and they ended up changing it to Kids Alive.
-Keiji and Akihiro were already in a band when they scouted Yuta at a school festival because Keiji's voice was maturing and could no longer handle higher notes. Yuta was still in middle school at this time while the other two were already in high school.
-Keiji writes most of the music and lyrics for the band. Yuta has written two songs while Akihiro one.
-Their first single was actually "New Dream," but this was debuted before they were signed under Motherland.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
まぶしい程の笑顔で
心に棘を刺すその仕草
いつものイタズラ Kiss は
もうやめて考えるほどに重い
ドラマの続きはどうなるの
チャイムが鳴り響く
背中だけ見つめてるだけど
加速してくハートが wow
Top speed で今を駆け抜けろ
強くなんてなれないさ
だけどなるしかないんだろう
今オマエを受け止めるために
Top speed で今を越えてみろ
ワガママに隠されてた
オマエの悲しみに気づいたよ
彷徨ってる心の中に
放課後窓から遠くを見ていたね
カッコつけてた
心は机の奥へと詰め込んで
幸福不幸答えなど出ないけど
苦しまぎれに抱き寄せ
オマエを守りたいそう時を止めて
大人になる事が分からない
どうしてどうして wow
Top speed で今を越えてみろ
愛なんて言葉はまだ
リアルに感じないけど
この想いは誰にも負けない wow
Top speed で今を駆け抜けろ
強くなんてなれないさ
だけどなるしかないんだろう
今オマエを受け止めるために
Top speed で今を越えてみろ
確かめずに跳ぶ勇気
必ず手に入れるから
彷徨ってるこの恋だけに
彷徨ってるオマエの為に
The lyrics to Kids Alive's song Top Speed speak about a person who is arrogant and selfish. They are someone who enjoys playing with others and hurting them, but they have a dazzling smile that often masks their true intentions, which is to hurt others. The singer of the song is tired of this person's behavior and wishes they would stop their harmful actions. The singer realizes that these actions are weighing heavily on them, and they need to stop them. However, they are left wondering what will happen next if the person stops their actions, and the uncertainty of their future is unsettling. They hear a chime ringing in the distance, signifying they need to move forward, and they declare that they will not let this person's behavior stop them from accelerating at top speed, even if they are not strong enough to handle what comes next. They continue to push forward, embracing their feelings, and looking beyond everything else.
The song's lyrics discuss the struggle of growing up and the hardships that come with it. The singer often feels lost and unsure about the world around them. They struggle to understand what it means to be an adult and the responsibility that comes with it. The singer knows that they must keep moving forward, facing the unknown head-on, and that their love and determination will be the things that help them overcome the struggles of life.
