Long Way 2 Go Meaning & Lyrics (Kikumaru | Rozetta)

The performers describe their path from teenage fun through their thirties, stating ‘We just need to tell the story of the journey we took.’ The poet uses specific locations like Tokyo and Hokkaido to show physical and symbolic distance traveled. He emphasizes that every day adds meaning to their long road.

Itsuka oshierareta jinsei wa tabi daSomeone once taught me that life is a journey.
Sore o kiku tabi sa omotte ita yo nani gaEvery time I heard that, I used to wonder what they meant.
Toomawari bakkari janai ka life is a bxxchIt felt like nothing but detours, and life is cruel.
Sonna jidai mo atta koko made no daiji na sceneThose times existed too, playing a vital part in our story.
Hontou omoeba tooku made kita mon daWhen I really think about it, we’ve come such a long way.
Zutto kono machi de narashite kita ongakuWe’ve been playing our music in this town forever.
Machigaccha nai aruite ita hougakuThe direction we walked in wasn’t wrong.
Nokosu koto ga taisetsu to omoetan da mon naI finally realized how important it is to leave a legacy behind.
Kamishimeru toki ga arun da ima no kachiThere are moments when I truly appreciate the value of right now.
Isshun o koukai shiteru you na jikan mo naiWe don’t have time to regret a single second.
Toki no nagareru hayasa wa mina onajiThe speed of time passing by is the same for everyone.
JX kiiteru ka michi wa shinja owari‘Jazadocument’, are you listening? The journey is over if we give up.
Hibi no imi atte michinori ni natteEvery day has meaning, adding up to this journey.
Naite mo waratte mo kore ga ichido kiri da zeWhether we cry or laugh, we only get one shot at this.
Majiwari hanare kurikaesu michi no naka deWe cross paths and drift apart repeatedly on this road,
Todoku made kimi no mimi madeuntil our music finally reaches your ears.
Ikutsumo no kisetsu ga nagaresugiru you niAs countless seasons keep flowing by,
Furikaeru koto mo sezu yumemiru haruka saki no hou niwe dream of the distant future without ever looking back.
Ushiro ni tsuzuiteru michi dake ga ikite kita imiThe path trailing behind us is the only proof of our existence.
Kashi ni nokoshite mata arukidasu hibiWe carve it into our lyrics and step forward into a new day.
Juudai wa asobi nijuudai wa tabiOur teenage years were just for fun, and our twenties were a journey.
Sanjuu koete doko made mo koetekuNow we’re in our thirties, pushing past every single limit.
Aitsu wa minakunari aitsu mo inakunariThat guy faded away, and the other guy disappeared too.
Teki wa ware nari katakuna migaku rhymeMy only enemy is myself, so I stubbornly polish my rhymes.
Ikizama o utsushidasu atarimaeNaturally, our way of life is reflected in our art.
Ore ga haoru mono subete kazari janeeEverything I wear on my back is more than just a decoration.
Jaza no beat ga ore o karitate‘Jazadocument’s’ beat constantly drives me forward,
Roze ga saigo ni tatamikakeruand ‘ROZETTA’ comes in to finish it off at the end.
Toukyou to Hokkaidou kyori sou tookunee gaThe distance between Tokyo and Hokkaido isn’t that far,
Orera ga yuku michi so long waybut the road we are taking is such a long way.
Demo kita michi shinjinai wa no wayBut there’s no way we’ll doubt the path that brought us here.
Yuumei mumei demo tsukamu yumeWhether we’re famous or unknown, we’ll grab onto our dreams.
Mukashi dou datta toka dou datte iiI don’t care at all about how things used to be in the past.
Kantan yori mo konnan de iiI’d rather take the difficult road than the easy one.
Sono michinori no hanashi o sureba iiWe just need to tell the story of the journey we took.
Sono toki ga kitara te o kumeba iiAnd when the right time comes, we’ll join hands together.
Ikutsumo no kisetsu ga nagaresugiru you niAs countless seasons keep flowing by,
Furikaeru koto mo sezu yumemiru haruka saki no hou niwe dream of the distant future without ever looking back.
Ushiro ni tsuzuiteru michi dake ga ikite kita imiThe path trailing behind us is the only proof of our existence.
