EGOIST

EGOIST is a song by GYROAXIA.

It was revealed for the first time during the Destiny Rock festival SSOL on July 19, 2020 and announced as a song for AAside in December 4 of the same year.

The game version was released on January 14, along with AAside's release and the Kenta Satozuka focused song quest "We're GYROAXIA", where it was described as "A song born from Kenta's strenuous efforts to demostrate their agency the importance of self-production".

It is written by SHiNNOSUKE (ROOKiEZ is PUNK'D/S.T.U.W), and arranged and composed by Nishizaka Kyohei from STRIKERS -who also was in charge of the guitars plus all the other instruments and programming-, the bass was played by Tatsuya Doi (HANO) and the drums by RYOTA.

Lyrics
Romaji= Kudaranai monosashi oshitsukerareta furasutorēshon Arifureta ippanron ja hakare wa shinaize Sono ba shinogi no hanpa na kakugo nara keri tobashite Mamorubeki puraido no tame tateru nakayubi

Itsumodōri kojiakeru gōin ni Jōshiki ya dōri wa tsūjinaize sorry Madamada ageru ima ijō ni Donna te tsukatte mo tsukamu shōri Seorī toka kyōmi naize Sā "just go my way" Dare ni mo manedekinaize

Itsumade mo konna toko de Tachidomatte hairan nakute Nani ga arō to yuzurenai omoi to puraido Iku michi habamu subete kirisute Kono ishi tsuranukitōsu dake

Dare ka ni shikareta rēru mushishite Ibara no michi sura kaki wakeru dake Onore no kotae wo shinjitsudzukete Dare no sashizu mo ukenaize

Jama wa mō ī kirisutete going Yo no fujōri kechirasuze sorry Migi ni narae nante Majide jōdan janai ze Gyararī ni wa kyōmi naine Sā "Just go my way" Dare ni mo jama sa senaize

Itsu made mo konna toko de Tachidomatte hairan nakute Nani arō to yuzurenai omoi to puraido Iku michi habamu subete kirisute Kono ishi tsuranukitōsu dake

Kakushita no tān hanaize hayaku pasushina Nekosogi kassarau Were GYROAXIA Mirai shika mie tenaize subete takushina Nekosogi kassarau Were GYROAXIA

Itsu made mo konna toko de Tachidomatte hairan nakute Nani ga arō to yuzurenai omoi to puraido Iku michi habamu subete kirisute Kono ishi tsuranukitōsu dake Kanji = くだらない物差し　押し付けられたフラストレーション ありふれた一般論じゃ測れはしないぜ その場凌ぎのハンパな覚悟なら蹴り飛ばして 守るべきプライドのため　立てる中指

いつも通り　こじ開ける強引に 常識や道理は通じないぜsorry まだまだ上る今以上に どんな手使っても掴む勝利 セオリーとか興味ないぜ さぁ“just go my way” 誰にも真似できないぜ

いつまでもこんなで 立ち止まってはいらんなくて 何があろうと譲れない想いとプライド 行く道阻む全て切り捨て この意志貫き通すだけ

誰かに敷かれたレール無視して イバラの道すら掻きわけるだけ 己の答えを信じ続けて 誰の指図も受けないぜ

邪魔はもういい　切り捨ててgoing 世の不条理　蹴散らすぜsorry 右に倣えなんて マジで冗談じゃないぜ 外野(ギャラリー)には興味ないね さぁ“Just go my way” 誰にも邪魔させないぜ

いつまでもこんなで 立ちどまってはいらんなくて 何あろうと譲れない想いとプライド 行く道阻む全て切り捨て この意志貫き通すだけ

格下のターンはないぜ　早くパスしな 根こそぎ掻っ攫う We're GYROAXIA 未来しか見えてないぜ　全て託しな 根こそぎ掻っ攫う We're GYROAXIA

いつまでもこんなで 立ち止まってはいらんなくて 何があろうと譲れない想いとプライド 行く道阻む全て切り捨て この意志貫き通すだけ English =
