Verse 1)
My childhood days that went by in a daze
Those days have already become long ago memories
The sound that I thought I would never hear
My high school senior classroom’s daybreak bell
Before I knew it, the sound clearly approached me
Only self-reflection and regret were left behind
While seeing my friends who were far ahead of me
I had desperately desired for small but precious results
Full of uneasiness and anxiety
I saw myself lost and trapped in a maze
At the time, I realized
I was given 300 something days of time
I firmly decided to believe in my not-so-melancholy-self
The start will be from now, so that’s enough
With my best efforts, I’ll do what I can
It’s time to fight back against fierce opposition
Hook)
Being sure of one goal
Only that is able to serve as a compass for my footsteps
As I can’t see further than my own nose
It has protected me thus far
Being sure of one goal
Only that is able to serve as a compass for my footsteps
As I can’t see further than my own nose
It has protected me thus far
Verse 2)
When I momentarily take my eyes off the flipping pages of the calendar
Even with my efforts
I’ll never be able to undo last year’s crazy winter snow
The reality is even that beauty has melted away
Faintly forming around my eyes
Even though my current state is weak
I’m walking towards reclaimed land
That alone made me so happy
That’s why I was able to continuously challenge myself
Somewhere between the determination that endlessly broke me
And the determination that didn’t want to be broken by me
I gained the strength to continue on, even if things are difficult now
I resolved to continue swimming
In the sea of the wider and deeper future
Before I knew it, my cheeks had become red from the chilly wind
This difficult path that I have chosen for myself is slowly passing
Hook)
Being sure of one goal
Only that is able to serve as a compass for my footsteps
As I can’t see further than my own nose
It has protected me thus far
Being sure of one goal
Only that is able to serve as a compass for my footsteps
As I can’t see further than my own nose
It has protected me thus far
Verse 3)
Caught up in an unknown nervousness the day before the exam
Spoke to a friend on the phone
We have been each other’s supporters thus far
We talked about what we’ve been looking for all this time
Rather than doing this to satisfy someone’s expectations
We are probably doing this for ourselves
Having a friend like that to lean on when I had become tired
Was enough to give me great strength
The day of the exam, as I head out of my house
I hear ringing echoes from deep inside my head:
Even if I fail today
Will I be able to brush it off and boldly stand up again
The familiar streets suddenly become unfamiliar
The scribbles that extend from my house until the end over there
The cement wall, full of these scribbles
All this is the same as before, but I stop in my tracks and hesitate
Hook)
Being sure of one goal
Only that is able to serve as a compass for my footsteps
As I can’t see further than my own nose
It has protected me thus far
Being sure of one goal
Only that is able to serve as a compass for my footsteps
As I can’t see further than my own nose
It has protected me thus far
