KAZOKU　全曲歌詞

I am the mother earth
I am the father sky
I am the grandma moon
I am the grandpa sun
I am the brother bird
I am the sister flower
And do you know what? I am you

In front of the crossroad
You can't choose either road
What is the right way?
What is the wrong way?
You can ask me anytime
Turn a stone by the roadside
You'll find me. I'll be there
The walls of misery that you built up
Now you are trapped alone
Fearful in the dark
You can tell me anything
Look at the stars at night
And You'll find me. I'll be there
Look at me looking at you
The barriers slowly just fading away
We are all born from the same mother earth, with one love

I am the sad tears
I am the sweet smiles
I am the loneliness
I am the anger
I am the forgiveness
I am the prayer
And do you know what? I am you

You're afraid of people
You don't like yourself
Feeling so unloved
when you cannot move
You can find me anywhere
even in an old wise tree
You'll find me. I'll be there
Had to make a sacrifice
to show your kindness
Had to say goodbye
because you loved her
You can see me clearly
even in the mirror
And you'll find me. I'll be there
Look at me looking at you
Vanity slowly just fading away
We are all born from the same mother earth, with one love

I am an ordeal
I am knowledge
I am the light
I am a life
I am love
I am God
And do you know what? I am you

You lost your parents
You lost your friends
Broke up with your lover
Lost the meaning of life
You can feel my silence
in the blowing wind
And You'll find me. I'll be there
You curse your destiny
Lose faith in your God
Body stiff in your bed,
fearing the knock of death
You can feel my healing
Put your hand on your chest
And you'll find me. I'll be there
Flowers and animals and birds
We are all different in bodies and lives
We are all born from the same mother earth, with one love

Refrain 1
Refrain 2
Refrain 3

I remember the day
when you were coming into this world
Mom did her best at the risk of her life
She suffered, she bore down,
she shouted like a beast
Finally, she gave birth to you
Daddy didn't know what to do
like a chicken without a head
I held mom's trembling hand so tightly
Then, you joined our family
Oh, I cried with joy

Repeat and repeat and repeat
We're living in a spiral of life
Reborn and reborn and reborn
We're learning the true love of life

Don't you think that we are family?
Don't you feel that we are family?
I'm sorry, I didn't care for you
because we were too close
Even if we couldn't understand
Even if we couldn't recognize
The only treasure in the world
This is your family

Do you remember the day
when our family broke up?
Mom always worried about you
She took care of you
She struggled and puzzled
Then she threw away our home
leaving you lonely, alone
Daddy loathed this family
And I hated myself
I was drunk every day
and lost my sense of self
Love was twisted, turned around
And then I hit you
Forgive me your lousy daddy

Repeat and repeat and repeat
We're living in a spiral of life
Reborn and reborn and reborn
We're learning the true love of life

Don't you think that we are family?
Don't you feel that we are family?
I am sorry, I turned away from you
because we were the same man
Even without permission
Even without respect
The only treasure in the world
This is your family

We remember the day
when mom left this world
Daddy also wanted to die and be with mom
I didn't have the time to say
I'm sorry to her
but I still love her even now
All families have a common fate
No one can escape
Carrying each other, we walk hand in hand
It is heavy and painful, a long and winding road
but I'm happy to be with you

Repeat and repeat and repeat
We're living in a spiral of life
Reborn and reborn and reborn
We're learning the true love of life

Don't you think that we are family?
Don't you feel that we are family?
I wanted to say thank you
for making our family
Even if we hurt each other
Even if we hate each other
The only treasure in the world
This is your family

Don't you think that we are family?
Don't you feel that we are family?...

Refrain

Then, you joined our family
Oh, I cried…cried with joy

What up brother! Ma name's Carter
19 years old. Workin' in a corner store
Cashier, cleanin', stockin' sum products
Look! I'm a great clerk, heh?

Hey, you goddamn kid!
Don't spill that Slurpee
Old bastard! Get the fuck outta here!

Oh no no no I didn't mean it
It's not what I had really wanted to say
Basically, I despise everyone equally!

Oh no no no I didn't mean it
It's not what I had really wanted to do
I wasn't born to do this shitty-ass job!

Daijoub My Friend, Daijoub My Friend
Fuck up life in a royal way
Daijoub My Friend, Daijoub My Friend
Get screwed in a splendid way

How's itz goin? Ma name's Cathy
22 years old. Workin' in a night club
Fishnet tights with a bunny tail
Make a joke, fake a smile
I am an entertainer

Hey! Shut your mouth
You filthy scumbag!
Hands off! You son of a bitch!
You treat your mama like this?

Oh no no no I didn't mean it
It's not what I had really wanted to say
All men can go to hell,
except maybe my boyfriend

Oh no no no I didn't mean it
It's not what I had really wanted to do
I wasn't born to do such a sick job!

How do you do? My name is Suzuki
40 years old. Work in a company
Top in sales, selling myself
Economy crashed, I got burned

I have nowhere to go, nothing to do
no home, no work, no one, no hope
My wife thinks I'm worthless
My daughter calls me smelly garbage

Oh no no no I don't mean it
It's not what I had really wanted to say
Thinking about how to commit suicide everyday

Oh no no no I don't mean it
It's not what I had really wanted to do
I wasn't meant to have this miserable life!

Daijoub My Friend, Daijoub My Friend
Even though it doesn't go as you wish
Daijoub My Friend, Daijoub My Friend
That's why life is worth living

Refrain

All the cram school children, Oh, they laugh
at the homeless man living in the trash
They say, "That man is a loser."

Businessmen waiting in a line
A man yells at a slow elderly man
"Hurry up, and get out of my way!"

Help the weak, help the grieving
is the strength of the man
Only those who have lost something are
able to save others

Let's fail. Let's fail. Yes, let's fail
Know the pain of a loser's soul is so deep
Makero. Makero. Let's fail
Know the love of a loser's heart is so big
Yes. The number of your wounds
makes you stronger than before
You gentle beast
Please come on, rise

A young man kicked a baby carriage
getting on the crowded train
There was no apology for the mother

A father scolds his son for skipping school
"You're just a loser after all."
The irony is the father lost his job

There is a life
That's similar to yours
every weed you trampled down
Only the man who knows darkness
is able to light the way

Refrain

Let's fail. Let's fail. Yes, let's fail
Know the pain of a loser's soul is so deep
Makero. Makero. Let's fail
Know the love of a loser's heart is so big

Refrain

Grandma's hands, wrinkled hands
Don't talk about anything
Grandma's hands, child-like hands
Like a lotus flower wrapped in time

The hands fought off a seeking mother
when she was born a long time ago

The hands knitted a flower necklace
when she was an innocent child

The hands wrote a love letter
when she was a dreaming girl

The hands waved a Japanese flag
for her elder brother going to war

Refrain

The hands loosened the belt of a Kimono
when she undressed on her wedding night

The hands tightly hugged her groom
Got married in an arrangement

The hands chopped chives for soup
They ate little and lived poorly

The hands wiped lonely tears
for the husband's betrayal

Refrain

The hands washed baby diapers
when she became a young mother

The hands touched an altar
when her parents passed away

The hands cradled her grandchild
when she was the most happy

The hands laughed for the first time
when she left this world

Many things had and many things lost
These hands hold her history
Grandma's hands, hands of God
A lotus flowers wrapped in time

Refrain

Violently cold rain
suddenly hits your cheek
You are scared like a dog
with frightened eyes
An unforgivingly strong wind
churns your hair
You have nothing left
Drop to your knees
　
In the rain, in the wind,
and even in a storm
The blue sky is always
up above the clouds

In the pain, in the grief,
and even in hell
I'm watching you, protecting you
from the sky above the clouds

The tsunami of destiny is
going to swallow you
As the shores disappeared,
you looked up at the sky
Don't fight the flow
Don't fight your fate
Believe in yourself
Just go with the flow

Refrain
 
Angels come down from the sky
using a ladder of light
Fallen trees will sink
into the earth, one more time
Green buds will grow
in a swamp of mud
Now, at this time,
you are still alive

Don't you know about your truth?
You are the rainbow warrior
The great soul, the brave heart
You are the eternal traveler

You create the world,
You stop the hate
You give everyone peace and love
You wake up now
You find your voice
You welcome yourself home

Refrain

I'm sorry that I was not honest with you
I'm sorry that I was not brave when you needed me
Go straight to your heart, my words, the truth of me
Only five letters of gratitude

There's nobody else who plays the part for me
There's nobody else but you, just you for me
When I think of you I feel like shedding tears of joy
Only five letters of gratitude

Thank you for meeting me, ARIGATOU
Thank you for loving me, ARIGATOU
Thank you for all, for all of you, ARIGATOU
That's all I want to say

I was always by your side, but I never told you
I was always trying, but too shy to tell you
How many times did I say it in my dreams?
Only five letters of gratitude

You helped me out during bad times
You cheered for me when I had good times
I'm living my life cause I have you
Only five letters of gratitude

Thank you for giving life, ARIGATOU
Thank you for raising me, ARIGATOU
Thank you for all, for all of you, ARIGATOU
That's all I want to say

Only five letters of gratitude
