Naked Lyrics Meaning Imashi | The Reason
Kazuki Yanagisawa pens lines like ‘If you don’t believe in yourself, no one else is going to listen,’ emphasizing the importance of self-trust. IMASHI brings these words to life, mixing them with a tune that feels both encouraging and freeing. The song focuses on rejecting external pressures and finding your own path.
Even if they look down on.Even if they look down on.
It’s okay, just trust yourself.It’s okay, just trust yourself.
Dareka no seikai woI spent my time trusting someone else’s ‘right answer’,
Shinjite bakari dejust believing what I was told,
Boku no kodou no oto waand the sound of my own heartbeat
Tozakatte ittadrifted far away.
Omae ga shinjinakyaIf you don’t believe in yourself,
Dare mo kiichakurenaino one else is going to listen.
Even if they look down on.Even if they look down on.
You don’t have to pay them any mind.You don’t have to pay them any mind.
Kimi ga waenai naraIf you can’t smile through it,
Imi nante nai karathen there’s really no meaning in it.
Iware tsuzuketaThat constant pressure to
“Rashisa” nante sa“act like yourself”—
Bukkowashite ii yoit’s okay to destroy that idea completely.
Taisetsu na mono dake gaBecause only the things that truly matter
Saigo ni kanarazu nokoru karawill definitely remain in the end.
You’ll be alright.You’ll be alright.
