Takano Akira — My Creature (Translation by shoceted)

Glory has chosen me

A corridor in the sky beckons me

Yes or no (are shown to me)

My instinct is to step out

(MY CREATURE)

 

While I'm restrained in the iron bars of inertia

what awakens is a more ferocious version of myself

(Reach me first, higher

Swear to yourself, don't let me down, yeah)

I'm knocking on the door

 

No turning back until I reach the light

 

Strongly, strongly, I'm tempted, enticed

I can't just give up

Like a beast, hunting and gnashing its teeth on its prey

Am I rising? Am I falling?

The spiral reflects my consciousness

That's the key to this cage

I rip off, my blood pumping hot

My creature

 

As if you're laughing at my challenge

the everyday words twist at my feet

From downstairs (creeping up)

despair crawls up

(NO FUTURE)

 

As if to inspire my wavering heart,

I echo, "Go for it, no matter what happens"

(If you don't go through with it, game over

What happens after? Don't give a damn, ya)

I hurry past the temptations

 

Holding on to the dreams I picked up on this journey

 

The future is always, always uncertain

We're all running and wandering in the dark

Each time I cross through the darkness, my vision gets clearer

Instead of waiting for the light to shine on me

I'll put myself in the spotlight

I'll burn away any compromise with my passion

and leave not an ash behind

My creature

 

The compass points overhead

I won't lose hope

I'm almost at the summit, just try

 

Strongly, strongly, I'm tempted, enticed

I can't just give up

Like a beast, hunting and gnashing its teeth on its prey

Am I rising? Am I falling?

The spiral reflects my consciousness

That's the key to this cage

I rip off, my blood pumping hot

My creature

Takano Akira — Too Good (Translation by shoceted)

(You're too damn good)

What's up with this?

Why the hell, you're too good

What's up with this?

 

Even if I challenge it with all my might,

the wall I can barely break through

seems like an easy

victory, for you

This is unfair

We've both put in a lot of effort

so what's the difference between my steps and yours?

 

Oh chasing, chasing, chasing, why?

Because I can't leave things the way they are

Craving, craving, craving for what?

Every time I become aware of my negative emotions, they escalate

This half-hearted conflict is enough

 

Admittedly,

that's why I'm racing —

I won't give up on this fight...

 

Always, you're too much,

you're too smart — no matter what you do

you're perfect, so complete

It's super annoying

For real, ah, you're too much,

you're too smart — it's so frustrating

Through all these difficulties

is there no way to win against you?

My contradictory emotions

are taking me over

More than anyone else, you're too much,

you're too smart — but I can't

keep silent for any longer

What's up with this?

 

(You're too damn good)

What's up with this?

(You're too damn good)

 

When we kicked off at the same time

we were playing 

just a bit better together, so why?

Somewhere along the way, I couldn't take the risk

and I get frustrated with myself

so I'll get bold and go wild

 

Even you would say

something like

"I'm not even close", wouldn't you?

 

I won't take a single step back, no matter what it takes

I'll be moving on, clashing with others, closing the gap

Am I the only one moving this desperately?

I don't care if I can't see — I'm breaking my limits

My expression was relaxed

but it's changing to serious

More than anyone else, you're too much,

you're too smart — but I'm getting tired

of looking at your back all the time

What's up with this?

 

You've got the style

to make it through any situation

You're perfect, it's crazy, crazy

I admit it with my whole heart

but I can't stop being jealous

 

Always, you're too much,

you're too smart — no matter what you do

you're perfect, so complete

It's super annoying

For real, ah, you're too much,

you're too smart — it's so frustrating

Through all these difficulties

is there no way to win against you?

My contradictory emotions

are taking me over

More than anyone else, you're too much,

you're too smart — but I can't

keep silent for any longer

What's up with this?

 

(You're too damn good)

What's up with this?

(You're too damn good)
