Break Down

Embracing Authenticity in a Conformist World

Girugamesh's song "Break Down" delves into the struggle of maintaining one's individuality in a society that often pressures people to conform. The lyrics begin with a critique of societal expectations, where adults dictate how one should live correctly, yet these prescribed answers seem flawed. The singer questions what to believe in amidst this confusion, highlighting a sense of disillusionment with societal norms.

The chorus encourages listeners, particularly the youth, to smile and stay strong despite the challenges they face. It suggests that by maintaining a positive demeanor, one can find strength. The lyrics also emphasize the uncertainty of the future, asserting that no one truly knows what lies ahead. This uncertainty, however, is framed as an opportunity for individuals to shape their own destinies, urging them to seize the moment and create their own paths.

The song also touches on the generational divide, with a pointed critique of older generations who blame the youth for societal issues without acknowledging their role in shaping them. This sentiment is encapsulated in the line, "Imano wakamono nattenai" (Today's youth are not good enough), which is countered by the assertion that it is the older generation's failure to guide them properly. The song ultimately calls for mutual support and understanding, encouraging everyone to pursue their dreams with full force, even if it means facing repeated setbacks. The recurring theme is one of resilience and the importance of staying true to oneself in the face of societal pressures.
