Navigating the Darkness: A Journey Through Ego and Emotion

エゴイスト (Egoist) by Vivid BAD SQUAD delves into the complexities of human emotions and the struggle to find one's path amidst the chaos of life. The song opens with a plea for guidance, as the protagonist seeks advice from a '先生' (teacher or mentor), highlighting a life plagued by mental turmoil and a desire to escape this overwhelming existence. This sets the stage for a narrative that explores the tension between seeking help and the inherent loneliness of personal struggles.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of transformation and decay, using the metaphor of an 'orange-stained' figure that eventually succumbs to darkness. This imagery suggests the inevitable decline that comes with time, and the persistent suffering that remains despite the passage of days. The repeated phrases 'おやすみ' (goodnight) and 'おかえり' (welcome back) evoke a sense of cyclical despair, where moments of rest and return are intertwined with ongoing pain.

As the song progresses, it shifts towards a more defiant tone. The protagonist resolves to move forward, leaving behind the emotional baggage ('感情的になってバイバイだ') and embracing a path of ascension ('昇竜的になって正解だ'). This journey is marked by a determination to surpass the night, symbolizing overcoming darkness and hardship. The repeated assertion that there is no turning back ('後戻りはしないよ') underscores a commitment to progress, regardless of the uncertainties that lie ahead. The song encapsulates a powerful message of resilience and the relentless pursuit of self-discovery, even in the face of profound emotional challenges.
