Spotlight
TaKaRa Lyrics

Moon hangs in the night
The moon is visible in the night sky

A spotlight on the world
The moon's bright light illuminates the world

Rising the lands,
The moon creates a rising effect on the landscape

Moving the seas
The moon's gravitational pull influences the tides of the oceans

And tonight from where
At this moment and in this location

I stand on this hill
The singer is standing on a hill

The spotlight's on me
The singer feels as though the world is focused on them

I am young long ago
The artist is recalling a time from their youth

I know not a thing
The artist was naive and inexperienced

Only that the sky is blue
The artist had simple knowledge of the world around them

Or sometimes gray
The singer knew that the sky could also be cloudy

Flowers grow but they need rain
The artist understands the basic needs of plants

And when you're a kid
The singer is reflecting on their childhood

You play games all day
The singer had a carefree lifestyle as a child and spent time playing games

Anywhere you can
The singer would play games wherever they could

Formative years come along
The artist is recalling their formative years

Some take the lead
Some people take more control of their lives

And some fall behind
Other people struggle to keep up

Confusion untold
The singer was confused during this time

Life can be so dramatic
The artist recognizes the drama that can come with life

But it was real at the time
The artist acknowledges that their experiences were valid

Laughing with friends
The artist shared happy times with friends

Crying alone
The singer also experienced sad times alone

All the false hearts and petty love
The artist reflects on past relationships that were not genuine or meaningful

We leave school
The singer and their peers graduate from school

To face the world
They are now entering the real world as adults

That seems fun for the world
The world appears to be full of opportunities

But you tire of the same faces
Eventually, the artist gets tired of the same surroundings and people

And you dream of new places
The artist longs to travel and explore new areas

It was a breath of aspiration
The singer felt inspired to pursue their dreams

When my sister said
The singer's sister played a role in motivating them

"Let's get out of here"
The sister suggested that they leave their current situation

We left our town
The artist and their sister left their hometown

We travelled 'round
They traveled to various places

And I went to find me
During their travels, the singer was able to discover more about themselves

Twenty something and the fog
The artist is now in their twenties and is no longer confused

Has all but disappeared
The confusion has been resolved

With each day passed
The singer continues to learn and grow

I learned something more
The singer gains new knowledge through their experiences

At all rate I'm thinking here
The artist is reflecting on their thoughts

I must know it all
The artist desires to have a complete understanding

Love, death, a little pain
The singer has experienced a range of emotions

Has passed through these walls
The singer has lived through various life experiences

Situations still arrive
The artist encounters new situations in life

Where I can see
The artist becomes aware of their own behaviors and emotions

The way I behaved was unjustified
The artist realizes that they have acted wrongly in the past

These are the times
During these situations

I look inside
The artist reflects on their own thoughts and feelings

And I see
Through this reflection, the singer gains insight

I'm a child after all
Despite their experiences and growth, the singer still feels like a child

Spotlight
A metaphor for feeling noticed and important

I found you
The artist realizes that they were always in control of their own spotlight

I know where you are
The artist is now aware of their own sense of self and direction in life
