1.How did it feel running through twists and turns?
2.How much have you sacrificed?
3.Forced to follow what you didn’t want to protect,
4.Playing the role of a puppet in disguise.5.
6.In the end, does it even matter what others think?
7.No doubt, it’s pathetic.
8.Getting caught up with the powerful, it’s out of control.
9.Why don’t you get out of my mind?10.
11.I’m nearing my limit of patience,
12.By the time your heart is worn down,
13.Shall we go seek some sympathy? Or find relief?
14.The more sighs you take, the stronger you’re destined to become, right?
15.Even if you can’t tell the difference anymore
16.Between “Sorry” and “I’ll do it” as a temporary escape.17.
18.Just like a slave,
19.There’s no escape.
20.No matter what happens, fight back for yourself.
21.No blame,
22.Even if you realize it, it’s too late,
23.Bound tightly in chains of repetition.
24.No rules, no goals, I won’t accept it.
25.The cage has no lock on it.
26.Through the gate,
27.I’m still not broken.
28.Let’s prove it,
29.Because I am not a slave.30.
31.“Take it slow”?
32.Mind your own business.
33.Let me show you
34.The rare case I’ve pursued.
35.For now, it’s all “Yes” to everything.
36.But that doesn’t mean we agree.37.
38.Even now, everyone, everything,
39.Is just thinking along the flow.
40.Let’s find it—
41.Actions and judgments that align with our hearts.
42.Don’t fear failure,
43.Don’t drown in success.
44.Unexpected outcomes,
45.In time, this will be the right answer,
46.Even if you turn away.47.
48.Just like a slave,
49.There’s no escape.
50.No matter what happens, fight back for yourself.
51.No blame,
52.Even if you realize it’s too late,
53.Bound tightly in chains of repetition.
54.No rules, no goals, I won’t accept it.
55.The cage has no lock on it.
56.Through the gate,
57.I’m still not broken.
58.Let’s prove it,
59.Because I am not…60.
61.Stand up, stand up,
62.Through the darkness,
63.Light up, light up,
64.If you seek freedom.
65.Our story begins,
66.I want to keep chasing it.
67.Respect your love, and just respect yourself.
68.Don’t let anyone get in the way of this world we’ve built.69.
70.Let’s burn a flame,
71.A fleeting dream.
72.Light it up, wake up now.
73.No blame,
74.This is your fate.
75.It’s the same thing over and over— “This is the last time.”
76.Even if you despair over everything,
77.Even if your tears have dried up,
78.There’s still a chance.
79.Push forward now,
80.Ignite the flame in your heart.
81.We are not slaves.
