As the sakura blossomed
I nervously pushed open the door with the spring breeze
On my first day at school
Everyone around me was shining so brightly
And I was the only one without any confidence

Tough lessons often left me in tears
And I wanted to [bad word] away so many times
It looks like this is probably impossible for me
But just when I was about to give up

Tightly holding on to my hand
While cheerfully smiling at me
Was a friend wearing the same uniform
Whose name I had just barely remembered
In a soft voice they told me that
"Our dreams are waiting for us
Beyond these corridors
So let's reach them together"
And shared with me their courage

By the time the sunflowers swayed in the wind
I became really close with my classmates
Turns out I wasn't the only one who was worried
And all together we watched the sun set

Depression [bad word] when I failed to keep up
And I wanted to drop out of school entirely
Although I was ready to clear out the locker in my heart
And prepare to go home

Tightly holding on to my hand
While guiding me
So I wouldn't lose my way
Was a friend who shared the same dream
Who convinced me that
"Someday our sweat and our tears
Will turn into brilliant memories
So let's continue to give it everything we have
Until the day we graduate"

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
We'll all be together aiming for the same stage
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
No matter how tough it [bad word] we'll carry on with our peace signs

Tightly holding on to my hand
While cheerfully smiling at me
Was a friend wearing the same uniform
Whose name I had just barely remembered
In a soft voice they told me that
"Our dreams are waiting for us
Beyond these corridors
So let's reach them together"
And shared with me their courage
