BACK-ON – Connectus and selfish | Lyrics

Connectus and selfish is the title track of BACK-ON‘s tenth single “Connectus and selfish” and is actually a combination of two songs (thanks Nyanko!) to make up for only being able to include ‘one’ new song in this single, making this song the longest track ever released by the band.

With thanks to Uta-Net for the original lyrics.  We will try and include some more notes overtime about the lyrics of Connectus and selfish below so fans can appreciate some of the rich vocabulary used:

Kanji BACK-ON – Connectus and selfish

[Chorus 1]
キミとなら途切れた未來へもう一度
飛び出せる気がした
繋いだ手から力強く感じた
『一人じゃない』って事を

[Verse 1]
躓いたって、立ち上がって
いつだってうまくやってきたけど、、でも。
カタチにならなくて、、、
人の事ばかり言って、何もしないで焦る気持ちを
ただ隠してたんだ

[Rap 1]
Hey! you gotta get out from ya little world!
You never stop! come on and let’s go!
Don’t be afraid Im gonna break the storm!
You gotta get my hand cuz we gonna take off!

[Chorus 2]
強がりで閉ざした世界をキミが
照らしてくれたから
何があっても、僕が僕でいられる様な
キミという光と共に

[Rap 2]
Hey 1.2.1.2! can you hear me? ってゆーか
I’m not a rapper! I’m a badass rock rhymer!
ノリなHead bangers with the best J-ROCK sound
and I got a crown in the dog pound!
テメーのハートにぶち込むBANG!!
I got the skill from the ROCKとHIP-HOP
キミは誰とmake科学反応?
Let’s go now! ride on the follow wind!
if you need us, we’ll connect to ya world!

Repeat *[Chorus 1]

[Bridge]
素直な僕でいられるんだ

傷ついた過去も、何もかも受け止めてくれた
Stay by my side
