Lyrics and translation Moomin - Straight Ahead

Straight Ahead

逃げたしたくなるほど 僕が苦手なものも
もしかして君にとって 得意なものかもしれないね

いつまでも腕を組んで 考え込んでいたって
本当に知りたいことは 辿り着くまで分からないでしょ
煌めくダイヤも はじめは原石
そのままでいても 誰も気付かない
自信を持つこと まずはそれが肝心
予想不可能な毎日 シナリオなんてない
出来ることから 始めてみよう
こんな時代でも 自分らしく生きたい
思うようには進まないけど
迷って何も しないよりいい

いつまでも胸の奥に 刻まれた悔しさも
もしかして僕にとって 大事なものかも知れないね
どんな失敗もバネに 七転び八起きスタイル
惨めなときもあるけど ここまで来たらやるしかないでしょ
夢中になれること 探してみよう
何を言われても 信じる方に賭けたい
当たりハズレは判らないけど
一度きりの人生 楽しんだ方がいい
落ち込むのも今日まで
いつでも上手くいくイメージで
ためらうのも今日まで
見えない鎖を外して 行きたい所へ

出来ることから始めてみよう
こんな時代でも 自分らしく生きたい
思うようには進まないけど
迷って何もしないよりいい
夢中になれること 探しに行こう
何を言われても信じる方に賭けたい
当たりハズレは判らないけど
一度きりの人生 楽しんだ方がいい

Straight Ahead

The things I'm not good at make me want to run
Might be something you're good at

Can't keep your arms crossed and think about it forever
You won't know what you really want to know until you get there
Even a sparkling diamond was once just a piece of rough
No one will notice if you stay the same
The key is to have confidence
Every day is unpredictable, there's no script
Just start with what you can do
Even in these times, I want to live my life my way
It doesn't always go the way you want it to
But it's better than doing nothing and being confused

The regrets that are always carved in your heart
Might be something important to me
Any failure can be a stepping stone, get up seven times after falling eight
There are times when you feel miserable, but once you've come this far, you have to keep going
Let's try to find something we can be passionate about
I want to bet on what I believe in, no matter what anyone says
You never know what's going to happen, but
It's better to enjoy this one-time life
I'll be sad until today
Always imagine that things will work out
I'll stop hesitating today
Let's break the invisible chains and go where we want to go

Just start with what you can do
Even in these times, I want to live my life my way
It doesn't always go the way you want it to
But it's better than doing nothing and being confused
Let's go find something we can be passionate about
I want to bet on what I believe in, no matter what anyone says
You never know what's going to happen, but
It's better to enjoy this one-time life
