Sasuke Haraguchi, an author, mentions a flame to represent a dream, and the line ‘I won’t lose to anyone, I’m certain’ appears twice. The verses list scattered feelings, then turn to clapping hands, echoing the chorus that asks if you’re ready to grab the dream.
Hitotsu no yume kanae made makenai yuku yoI won’t lose ’til I make this one dream come true, let’s go
Any time tsuukai rikai shingaiAny time, it’s thrilling, clear, or an infringement,
Iikai motto mottolisten up, more and more.
