Текст и перевод песни Riu Domura - EGOIST

EGOIST

俺がやらなきゃ誰がやんだって
俺の世界じゃ俺がエゴイスト
弱さを隠す雨が止んだって
やり遂げた気になんじゃねえよいつも
敗北を知った少年は
固く閉ざしたドアの封を断った
弱さを隠し降った雨は
少年の努力を隠したんだ

固く結ぶ靴紐と意思
俺が俺でいるべき1つの意味
「これでいいや」って選んだ道
じゃなくこれしかないと進んだ日々
神様が俺にくれたタイムリミット
夢へ向かう切符は片道
安定と理想乗せる秤に
言わずとも針が示したのは右

アニメみたいな妄想ばっかりしてたガキの頃
20超えた今もヒーローみたく空を飛ぶ妄想
誰が俺を否定しても俺は俺のヒーロー
馬鹿にしてるお前もそう お前の人生の主人公

ゴールは1個でボールも1個
俺もお前も等しく持った一生
エゴでいいよ 誰もがきっと
自分のために踏み出した一歩を

過去を悔やんでも戻れないから
明日の糧にすればいい
失敗も今日の踏み台に
後回しじゃ踏み出せないから
今を走りだせばいい
誰のものでもないyour life

俺がやらなきゃ誰がやんだって
俺の世界じゃ俺がエゴイスト
弱さを隠す雨が止んだって
やり遂げた気になんじゃねえよいつも
敗北を知った少年は
固く閉ざしたドアの封を断った
弱さを隠し降った雨は
少年の努力を隠したんだ

いつも決めつけた
「どうせ俺なんか」
夢の中だけはずっと強かった
実際は違う
主人公ではなく
いつも誰かの背中辿ってた
きっと選ばれやしない
生まれたときからわかってたなれないと
一生 妄想を生きる
弱いくせ涙は隠して生きていた

「弱いヒーローも最後は強く」
なんてアニメだからできたことだろ
「頑張れば夢は叶う」
って子供騙しにはもう騙されない
生まれた瞬間に
俺は脇役だってわかっていたから
きっと泣き叫んだ
今日くらいしか目立てはしないだろうって

そんな日々も本当は知っていた
何もかも言い訳だなんて
それすら自分の弱さって
明日が誰のためにくるかって
気付いた時にはすでに
俺は足を踏み出した

俺がやらなきゃ誰がやんだって
俺の世界じゃ俺がエゴイスト
弱さを隠す雨が止んだって
やり遂げた気になんじゃねえよいつも
敗北を知った少年は
固く閉ざしたドアの封を断った
弱さを隠し降った雨は
少年の努力を隠したんだ

EGOIST

If I don't do it, who will?
In my world, I'm the egoist.
Even if the rain hiding my weakness stops,
Don't ever think you've accomplished anything.
The boy who knew defeat
Broke the seal of the tightly closed door.
The rain that fell, hiding his weakness,
Also hid the boy's efforts.

Tightly tied shoelaces and resolve,
One reason I should be myself.
Not the path I chose, thinking, "This is good enough,"
But the days I walked, knowing this is the only way.
The time limit God gave me,
A one-way ticket toward my dreams.
On the scales weighing stability and ideals,
The needle pointed right without a word.

Back when I was a kid, all I had were anime-like delusions.
Even now, past 20, I still have delusions of flying through the sky like a hero.
No matter who denies me, I'm my own hero.
You who laugh at me, you too are the protagonist of your own life.

One goal, one ball,
You and I both equally have one life.
It's okay to be egotistical, everyone surely
Took their first step for themselves.

Because you can't go back even if you regret the past,
You might as well make it nourishment for tomorrow.
Turn failures into stepping stones for today,
Because you can't take a step if you keep putting things off,
You might as well start running now.
It's no one else's but your life.

If I don't do it, who will?
In my world, I'm the egoist.
Even if the rain hiding my weakness stops,
Don't ever think you've accomplished anything.
The boy who knew defeat
Broke the seal of the tightly closed door.
The rain that fell, hiding his weakness,
Also hid the boy's efforts.

I always assumed,
"I'm just worthless anyway."
Only in my dreams was I always strong.
In reality, it's different.
I'm not the protagonist,
I was always following someone else's back.
I'll surely never be chosen.
From the moment I was born, I knew I couldn't become one.
I'll live my whole life in delusions.
Even though I'm weak, I lived hiding my tears.

"Even weak heroes become strong in the end,"
That's something that can only happen in anime, right?
"If you try hard, your dreams will come true,"
I won't be fooled by that childish lie anymore.
The moment I was born,
I knew I was a supporting character.
I must have cried and screamed,
Thinking this might be the only day I stand out.

I actually knew about those days too.
That everything was just an excuse.
That even that is my own weakness.
Who is tomorrow coming for?
By the time I realized it,
I had already taken a step forward.

If I don't do it, who will?
In my world, I'm the egoist.
Even if the rain hiding my weakness stops,
Don't ever think you've accomplished anything.
The boy who knew defeat
Broke the seal of the tightly closed door.
The rain that fell, hiding his weakness,
Also hid the boy's efforts.
