Lyrics and translation SKY-HI - Young , Gifted and Yellow

Young , Gifted and Yellow

Long time no see my man, my friend
久しぶりに君に手紙を書いてる
なんかあったか？ なんてつれないね
なんかないと頼らないなんて言ってないぜ
なぁ、そっちの景色には慣れたかい？
こっちは相変わらずビルが立ち並び
その隙間から吹く風が容赦ない
物より心に有る格差社会

大抵の物は手に入るし
音楽や映像もタダで耳や目に入る
君の好きなレコ屋はカフェになった
味は悪くないぜ？ 入ってはみたんだ
地団駄踏んで諦めたあのクラシックは
EDM でリメイクされたらしい
変わってく街 変わってく価値
君から見た今はどんな形？

Young, Gifted & Yellow...

君の嫌いだった街なら 変わりなく ただ煌びやか
もしもう少し年取ってしなびたら
今より上げたくない左肩
失くした物を探してる内に
手にした物の価値も見失って
ブランド品でプライドを象ってる
皆迷子みたくココを彷徨って

群れても 1人 Everytime I feel so lonely
他人との距離はどこ見ても遠い
賛成の反対が手を繋ぎ
がっかりばっかりな「でも」暮らし
盾だけかかげ持つ手が辛い
風が右から左にフワリ
変わらない街 変わってく価値
君の見た今はどんな形？

Young, Gifted & Yellow...

It's been a long time my man, my friend
君のもういない時代で俺は一人立ってる
ワイヤレスの愛を Wi-fi で飛ばし
ヘッドフォンからは mp3 の 90's
いくら過去を振り返って見ても
未来から見れば今も同じでしょう
味の無いガムを吐き出し
今俺が誇るのはこんな時代

見つからない... まだ足らない...
無いもの探しが終わらない
見つからない... まだ足らない...
空回りの Have a nice day...

Young , Gifted and Yellow

Long time no see my man, my friend
It's been a long time, my dear, since I last wrote
How have you been? Too informal, I know
I'm not saying I'd only reach out if I needed something
Hey, have you gotten used to the scenery there?
Here, the buildings are still towering
The wind mercilessly blowing through them
Wealth disparity between the haves and have-nots

Most everything is within reach
Music and videos stream into our ears and eyes
Your favorite record store's now a cafe
The coffee's not bad, I've been there
The classical music you stubbornly held onto
Appears to have been remixed with EDM
The changing cityscape, the evolving values
What do you see from where you are?

Young, Gifted & Yellow...

The city you despised is unchanged, just more glamorous
If I grow old and frail
I hope to never lower my head
As I search for what I've lost
I've lost sight of what I've gained
I'm wrapped in brand names trying to find my pride
We're all lost souls wandering aimlessly

Even in a crowd, I feel so lonely
The gulf between people is vast
Opposites attract
but we're left with a perpetual sense of disappointment
It's hard to hold my own in this climate
The wind blows gently, from right to left
The city that never changes, the values that ebb and flow
What do you see from where you are?

Young, Gifted & Yellow...

It's been a long time my man, my friend
I stand alone in an era where you are gone
I send wireless love via Wi-Fi
90's mp3s stream through my headphones
No matter how much I dwell on the past
The future will always look the same
I spit out the tasteless gum
I'm proud to live in these times

I can't find... I'm still lacking...
The search for what I don't have never ends
I can't find... I'm still lacking...
An endless cycle of empty good wishes...
