Say, no more tears, then walk again
嘘のようなこの世界では 突きつけられた現実に
迷う暇も与えられない
So many things I don′t wanna lose
So many things to fight for justice
What can I do for you
偶然だろうと 運命だろうと 二度と引き裂けないこの力が
触れられないタブー 痛みでもいい
I hear my heart
ふるえたいから
Just facing to your belief
あの空へと手を翳す 飾りのコトバはいらない
そう どんな夜も キミと涙 流さないように
傷つく今恐れず
No matter what the answer, I don't mind it
I don′t care, no matter what the reason
Say, no more fears, then walk again
この眼に映るものに この手が届くものに
How can I save them now
Thinking really so hard
悔やんでみても 嘆いてみても 強く刻まれてるこの力は
逃げられないタブー 切なくていい
Just feel my heart 焦がしたいから
Just facing to your belief
真実だけ見つめてたい つまらない噂はいらない
そう 何処にいても 自分らしさ 失くさないように
傷跡もう隠さない
きっといつか分かるなら 今は答えはいらない
ただ自分を信じていこう
Just facing to your belief
あの空へと手を翳す 誇れない想いはいらない
Just facing to your belief
あの空へと手を伸ばす 今 前を向いて
Just facing to your belief
あの空へと手を翳す 変わらない強さ 見つけたい
そう どんな夜も キミと涙 流さないように
目を逸らさず歩こう
No matter what the answer, I don't mind it
I don't care, no matter what the reason
Say, no more fears, then walk again
The lyrics to May'n's song 'Belief' are a powerful reminder of the importance of holding on to what you believe in, even in the face of adversity. The singer encourages the listener to keep pushing forward despite the obstacles of the world, to not give up hope, to face their beliefs without fear, and to hold on to their true selves. The opening lines of the song "Just facing to your belief, raise your hand to that sky" advise the listener to reach out towards their dreams and goals without holding back, and to trust in their abilities to make them come true.
The lyrics acknowledge that life is not always easy, and that one may often be faced with harsh realities that make it difficult to keep on going. The line "So many things I don't wanna lose, so many things to fight for justice, what can I do for you" speaks to the sense of responsibility that the singer feels towards others, and the desire to make things better in the world. They also recognize that the path to success may be painful and difficult, and that it may require putting oneself in uncomfortable situations. But this doesn't mean that one should give up or let go of their beliefs, instead, it is a reminder to stay strong, face their fears, and keep on walking.
The chorus of the song is empowering, as it tells the listener to continue moving forward despite the difficulties they may face. "Just facing to your belief, raise your hand to that sky, we don't need any false words, no matter what kind of night it is, let's not shed tears together, don't be afraid of getting hurt now, no matter the answer, just keep going." This message is reinforced throughout the song as the singer encourages the listener to keep striving towards their goals, to stay true to themselves, and to trust in their own abilities.
Overall, May'n's 'Belief' is a powerful anthem for anyone who feels lost, discouraged, or overwhelmed by the challenges they face. The message of the song is simple, but it is one that is often forgotten in the fast-paced and complicated world we live in; believe in yourself, and keep pushing forward towards your dreams.
