Beginner
Set yourself up!
All the experiences and knowledge
From yesterday don’t mean a thing
The wind just blows on by
Leaving nothing in its wake
Search for a new path
Don’t spread someone else’s map
When you raise the barriers, you start from zero
Are we dreaming?
Do we believe in the future?
Fearless and clueless,
Living recklessly
Are we dreaming now?
Like kids, starting fresh
Let’s break the chains of failure
Change your mind
Change your mind
You don’t need to know anything, beginner!
Failing and feeling ashamed,
Getting hurt, turning into trauma
I never want to feel that way again,
Oh wise adults
Challenges seem foolish
To avoid risks
What are you trying to protect with your foolish calculations?
Are we alive?
Do we want to live tomorrow?
Pretending to understand, acting like we know it all
It’s been a while since we dreamed
Yes, are we alive?
Are we wasting our lives?
Feel the heartbeat pulsing now
Stand up! Together!
Remember the day you were born
Everyone’s a beginner!
Stand up! Right now!
It’s not easy from the start
It won’t go smoothly
Stand up! Together!
Let’s go back to the beginning
Once more, beginner!
Stand up! Right now!
Get back up, get back up
It’ll work out somehow
Tear up the old pages
Let’s get started
We can be reborn all the time
Are we dreaming?
Do we believe in the future?
Fearless and clueless,
Living recklessly
Are we dreaming now?
Like kids, starting fresh
Let’s break the chains of failure
Can’t do anything
Can’t do it right
So what?
We’re young
Can’t do anything
Can’t do it quickly
That’s why we have potential
The rain has stopped
The wind has calmed
An anger we’ve never seen
Stings us
Now is the time
You’ve been reborn, beginner!
