悩みつまづきStep out walk in the life
自分らしくなんて強がってみても
ガムシャラになっても時折不安になる
弱いトコなんて見せたくないけど
誤解されりゃいつも負けそうになる
ヘコんだって立ち上がって
僕等はこの手で明日を描くRude Boy
ふり返りゃ昨日の足跡が路になる
地図を広げて明日を描けRude Boy
迷い戸惑いStep out walk in the life
上手くいかなくてうつむく帰り道
アスファルトに咲いた黄色い花を見た
すすけた顔で空を見上げているキミは
自分らしさの意味教えてくれた
「転んだって立ち上がって
いいか？傷は飾りなんかじゃないぜ」
僕等はこの手で明日を描くRude Boy
ふり返りゃ昨日の足跡が路になる
地図を広げて明日を描けRude Boy
迷い戸惑いStep out walk in the life
「転んだって立ち上がって
いいか？傷は飾りなんかじゃないぜ」
僕等はこの手に夢を掴むRude Boy
諦めても路はそこで終わりじゃない
誰もがその目に夢を見てるRude Boy
悩みつまづきStep out walk in the life
僕等はこの手で明日を描くRude Boy
ふり返りゃ昨日の足跡が路となる
地図を広げて明日を描けRude Boy
迷い戸惑いStep out walk in the life
悩みつまづきStep out walk in the life
The Cherry Coke$'s song Rude Boy is an uplifting anthem about perseverance and self-discovery. The opening lyric "Everyone dreams with their eyes" is a reference to the idea that everyone has aspirations and goals they want to achieve, and the Rude Boy persona represents someone who is not afraid to push past obstacles in order to achieve their dreams. While there may be moments of self-doubt and anxiety, the lyrics encourage the listener to keep moving forward and be true to themselves, even if it means showing their weaknesses.
The second verse of the song speaks to the idea of taking risks and learning from mistakes. The lyrics "Even if you stumble and fall, it's okay. Pain is a teacher" suggest that failure can be a valuable lesson and that it's important to pick yourself up and keep going, even if it means bearing some scars. The chorus repeats the message of the song, that "We'll draw tomorrow with our own hands" and that even though there may be moments of uncertainty, it's important to keep moving ahead and embrace whatever challenges lie ahead.
Overall, Rude Boy is a powerful message of resilience and self-discovery, encouraging listeners to embrace their dreams and to face adversity with strength and confidence.
