Rainbow-Colored Future

Lyrics & Composition: Noriyuki Makihara

Blue for boys
and pink for girls
Who decided that?
Does it have to be that?
A lover of skateboarding even when they get old
A young boy who loves bonsai
Going beyond sex and age
we can just be more free, right?

Likening it to common sense
we're raised to live without standing out
And before we know it, we're in a place
really far away from happiness!

If I can't be myself
then why were we born
with our looks and personalities scattered?
Even if there's a single picture to be painted
the puzzle won't complete
with nothing but the same pieces

If it's something you hate
you should just ignore it
yet why're we going towards it?
Does it have to be that?
We can't just
use what
we ourselves value
and smash what the others value, right?

Common sense always
changes whenever it updates
It makes no sense to attach
your own heart to something like that

If you can't be yourself
then why were we born
with our looks and personalities scattered?
Just like that sun shines on everything
shine on everything
c'mon, with a light just for you

The truth is we're all
made to shine
Let's let all colors shine
and span a rainbow soon
If we can't be ourselves
then for what were we born
with our looks and personalities scattered?
There's a single picture to be painted
And that is, and that is a glittering, beautiful
rainbow-colored future

Nijiiro no Mirai

Sakushi & Sakkyoku: Makihara Noriyuki

Otoko no ko wa ao de
Onna no ko wa PINKU toka
Sore wa dare ga kimeta no
Sou ja nakucha DAME nano?
Toshi wo tottemo SUKEBOO
Bonsai zuki no shounen
Seibetsu mo toshi mo koete
Motto jiyuu de ii ja nai

Joushiki ni nazoraete
Medatazu ikiro to sodatte
Kizukeba shiawase kara zuibun
Tooi basho ni iru nante!

Boku ga boku rashiku irarenai nara
Doushite mitame mo seikaku mo
BARABARA ni umarete kita no?
Egakareru beki ichimai no e ga attemo
Onaji PIISU bakari ja
PAZURU wa kansei shinai yo

Kirai na mono nara
Mushi sureba ii noni
Doushite mukatte iku no
Sou ja nakucha DAME nano?
Jibun ga daiji ni shiteru
Mono wo tsukatte
Aite no daiji na mono wo
Tatakitsubushicha DAME jan

Joushiki nante itsumo
APPUDEETO no tabi ni kawaru
Sonna mono ni jibun no kokoro wo
Sowasu nante imi ga nai

Kimi ga kimi rashiku irarenai nara
Doushite mitame mo seikaku mo
BARABARA ni umarete kita no?
Subete wo terasu ano taiyou mitai ni
Kimi dake no hikari de subete wo
Saa terashite misete

Hontou wa daremo ga
Kagayakeru you ni dekite iru
Ironna iro wo kagayakasete
Sorosoro niji wo kakeyou
Bokura ga jibun rashiku irarenai nara
Nan no tame mitame mo seikaku mo
BARABARA ni umarete kita no?
Egakareru beki ichimai no e ga aru'n da
Sore wa sore wa KIRAKIRA utsukushii
Nijiiro no mirai

虹色の未来
