---(Matenro)---

All distress turns into flow

Helpless situations resolve themselves

Shinjuku’s lure light is released now, released now, released now

Even if it’s just a small light

If it still shines, please illuminate me

Shall we do this! If we run, it’ll be forward

We, the blades, have assembled,

I’ll spit out my verse

---(Jakurai Jinguji)---

Even if I’m saved from my own past, I want to save everyone

I won’t let this wish to be gnawed into something unrecognizable

I stopped counting what I’ve lost

In order to fight the suffering that still exists

Some words are omitted from this synopsis, hidden in the dark

I’ll keep searching for it everywhere, the piece of work that is me

---(Doppo Kannonzaka)---

Blooming out of season he’ll create a musical that cheers you up

Doctor's existence is the best medicine of all

---(Jakurai Jinguji)---

I will abide by myself

I’ll be okay, I have these two

Heading straight forward, just straight forward

Towards the escape door on the wall of this labyrinth

Bringing relief for everyone, all throughout Japan

The goldfish scooper will never break again

---(Matenro)---

All distress turns into flow

Helpless situations resolve themselves

Shinjuku’s lure light is released now, released now, released now

Even if it’s just a small light

If it still shines, please illuminate me

Shall we do this! If we run, it’ll be forward

We, the blades, have assembled,

I’ll spit out my verse

---(Hifumi Izanami)---

I have a phobia that makes my mentality like that of tofu

But when I put on my suit, that of course changes it all

I want to understand how you express yourself

Today it greatly tickles my maternal instincts again

Standing aloof, dropping down to sit, even when I’m emotionally unstable

Don’t turn away, get the evidence with your words

But even though the day might be cold and I can’t lend it to you yet,

One day I’d like to gently place this suit jacket over you

From the start you’ve been special to me, my only one

The occasions when I said something like that are now gone

With Doctor and Doppo, together with these two I go

---(Jakurai Jinguji)---

Now we put our hands on the icy cold door

---(Hifumi Izanami)---

Together we’ve talked and supported each other through it all

Exposing our inner sides, breaking through our outer shells

Spreading our flow around while fighting

Just single mindedly plowing

To make flowers bloom on this soil that is said to be infertile!

---(Matenro)---

All distress turns into flow

Helpless situations resolve themselves

Shinjuku’s lure light is released now, released now, released now

Even if it’s just a small light

If it still shines, please illuminate me

Shall we do this! If we run, it’ll be forward

We, the blades, have assembled

I’ll spit out my verse

---(Doppo Kannonzaka)---

I became the company’s hands and feet

But to at least not get fired I do double the double

Those times I kept thinking “Why is it only me?”

When in fact I knew already

I was just being uncooperative, wasn’t I

Overtime nightscape, even the moonlit night has an off-switch

Shouting out my emotions in this central city Tokyo

Actions over words, I muster my courage

---(Hifumi Izanami)---

Don’t worry, we’re right behind you

---(Doppo Kannonzaka)---

Managers, how are you doing!

Let’s prepare a sales proposal

I’ll do my absolute best

To make it completely different from some flattery sale

With this hand that usually holds onto a train strap

I now grab my mic and sing

If I finish this within the stated time

The future or outside won’t be dark

This is the only way I can answer

To the verses that endorsed mine

Eventually the wetness on my pillow

Will be from drool and not from tears anymore

If I admit defeat to myself, who can I win against?

No need for tricks, just go all out

---(Jakurai Jinguji)---

In addition to a stethoscope I have a microphone

Through this cord I show my rhyme and flow

---(Hifumi Izanami)---

Keep bringing those ice shots but don’t forget to love yourself

Without getting drunk on that of course

---(Doppo Kannonzaka)---

Getting on the train to go to work, I’ll be there soon

Swaying with the crowd everyday is like a live

---(Matenro)---

If you run back there is no tomorrow

Together heading towards the decisive morning

Life goes on

All distress turns into flow

Helpless situations resolve themselves

Shinjuku’s lure light is released now, released now, released now

Even if it’s just a small light

If it still shines, please illuminate me

Shall we do this! If we run, it’ll be forward

We, the blades, have assembled

I’ll spit out my verse

We three will grab the victory

So in the future too we will keep earnestly singing

If even one person locks it, the door won’t open so it’s time for action

There’s no time for us to sit on our laurels

So we just keep holding our hand up to the moonlight

Wishing that guiding light won’t ever disappear

困難も全てフローに変わる

どうにもならないことがどうにかなる

シンジュクの漁火が解き放つ

解き放つ　解き放つ

僅かな灯火でも

まだ光るなら照らしてくれよ

やるか！　逃げるなら前だ

揃ったこの刃　吐き出すマイヴァース

たとえ　私の足元が救われても

全ての人を救いたい

この願い　得体の知れないモノに

蝕まれるような真似はさせない

失ったモノを数えるのは止めた

残された苦悩と戦うためだ

闇に隠れた筋書きの脱字

探し回る　私という作品

狂い咲き　奮い立つ ミュージカルを作り出す

先生の存在が何よりの薬だ

私は私自身を従える

大丈夫さ　私には2人がいる

真っ直ぐに　ただ真っ直ぐに

向かう　迷宮壁からの脱出口

皆を助ける届け　日本中に

二度と破れない　金魚すくい

困難も全て　フローに変わる

どうにもならないことがどうにかなる

シンジュクの漁火が解き放つ

解き放つ　解き放つ

僅かな灯火でも

まだ光るなら照らしてくれよ

やるか！　逃げるなら前だ

揃ったこの刃　吐き出すマイヴァース

俺は木綿豆腐のメンタルの恐怖症

だがスーツを纏えばそれも当然卒業

理解したい貴方の表現方法

余計今日もくすぐる母性本能

ぼぉーと立って　どんと座って 情緒不安定な時も

そっぽ向かないで　言葉で証拠掴んでく

だが寒い日だろうと今はまだ貸せない

いずれこのスーツそっと君にかけたい

元々が特別なオンリーワン

そんなセリフ吐いた暁には終わりだ

先生に独歩この２人共に向かう

「今手をかける冷え切った扉」

仲間で語り合って支えやってきたのさ

腹割って　殻割って　戦って撒き散らすフロー

ひたすらにただ耕す

不可能という土に花を咲かす

困難も全てフローに変わる

どうにもならないことがどうにかなる

シンジュクの漁火(いさりび)が解き放つ

解き放つ　解き放つ

僅かな灯火でも

まだ光るなら照らしてくれよ

やるか！　逃げるなら前だ

揃ったこの刃　吐き出すマイヴァース

会社の手となり足となり

首にだけはならねえように倍の倍

あの頃は　何で俺だけって

実は分かってる癖に捻くれてたよな

残業の夜景　月夜にも消灯

感情を叫ぶ　中心都市TOKYO

口よりも行動　勇気を振り絞る

「心配ない俺達(おれら）が後ろにいるよ」

上司共調子どう！企画書を用意しよう

媚売りとは決して違う渾身のヨイショ

つり革を掴む手でマイク掴み歌うぜ

定時内に終わらせれば未来も外も暗くねえ

裏付ける　ヴァースこれに答えしかねえ

いずれ濡らす枕涙よりもヨダレに変える

自分に敗北を喫して誰に勝てる

種しかけ　なんていらねえよ派手にやれ

聴診器に加え「マイクロフォン」

このコードを伝って吐く「ライムトフロー」

いくらでも持ってこいよ「アイショット」

ただ自分には酔わず君を「愛すこと」

電車乗り会社に「今行くとこ」

満員で揺れる毎日は「LIVEのよう」

後ろに逃げていては「ないTomorrow」

互い決意の朝に向かう「Life goes on」

困難も全てフローに変わる

どうにもならないことがどうにかなる

シンジュクの漁火(いさりび)が解き放つ

解き放つ　解き放つ

僅かな灯火でも

まだ光るなら照らしてくれよ

やるか！　逃げるなら前だ

揃ったこの刃　吐き出すマイヴァース

この3人で勝利を掴むから

この先もひたすらに歌うただ

１人でもかけちゃ開かぬ

扉どきなそう今動き出す時だ

胡坐をかく暇もないから

ただ月光に手を伸ばす絶えまなく

この道しるべは終わらないと
