動き始めるstory このへ続く 新たな扉を開いて

3,2,1 ignition　描いたvision mmもブレぬ軌道　駆けるスピード I'm a Hero　夢もも希望も売り渡さない This is my steelo

いつだってこの情熱と期待を 一遍のに託すだけ 一切の迷い・後悔・羨みも 握り潰して

さぁ火を点せ　揺らがぬ意志で 消えることのない燃やして さぁ道を拓け　未知なる日々へ どんな暗闇も照らすだけ sing for yourself

まだまだこっからだ　放つpower 未知の大地咲かすflower 先陣切って揚げる一旗 先行くぜ見とけよそソコから

いつだってこの情熱と不安を 一節のに託すだけ いつまでも果てのない旅路を 歩き続ける

さぁ火を点せ　哀しみも越えて 癒えることのない傷も燃やして さぁ道を拓け　過去も塗り変える どんな暗闇も照らすだけ

さぁ火を点せ　揺らがぬ意志で 消えることのない燃やして さぁ道を拓け　未知なる日々へ どんな暗闇も照らすだけ sing for yourself 届くまで English = This constant passion and anxiety I entrust only in a melody's verse It's a never-ending journey That I have to start walking again

The story that begins moving Will lead to my future And open new doors for me

3,2,1 ignition, my drawn vision I'll never stray from my way no matter how fast I run I'm a Hero, my hopes, dreams, and pride aren't for sale This is my steelo

This constant passion and expectations I entrust only in a piece of poetry All of my hesitation, regret, and envy I'll crush it all

Now, light the fire of my unwavering will That burning feeling will never disappear I'll pave a path towards an unknown life And just illuminate all that darkness sing for yourself

We're just getting started, so release that power We're like a flower blooming on an unknown ground As I raise the flag of my vanguard Take a good look from there before we go

This constant passion and anxiety I entrust only in a melody's verse It's a never-ending journey I'll keep on walking on it

Now, light the fire of my unwavering will I'll follow those dreams that never fade I'll pave a path into the unknown of daily life And just illuminate all that darkness sing for yourself Until it comes true

Now, light the fire past my sorrow And cauterize my wounds that never healed I'll pave a path and repaint the past And just illuminate all that darkness

Now, light the fire of my unwavering will That burning feeling will never disappear I'll pave a path towards an unknown life And just illuminate all that darkness sing for yourself Until it comes true
