Kanji:

自分らしさってなんだ？　"人とは違う"で差をつけろ

コンビニの雑誌コーナー　表紙に太字で書いてあった

自分らしさってなんだ？　こどもの頃は気にもせず

気に入らなければ怒って　好きなものを好きだと言って

僕らは変わっていく　守りたいものが変わっていく

理解されない宝物から　理解されるための建前へ

おとなになるほど　後悔する生き物になる

でもね　それでもね　見えるものがあるんだよ

だから　僕は僕らしく　そして　君は君らしくって

始めから　探すような　ものではないんだと思うんだ

僕は君じゃないし　君も僕じゃないから

すれ違う　手を繋ぐ　そこには愛だって生まれる

そういうもんさ　自分らしさってなんだろう

変えられない　大切があるから　変わりゆく　生活が正しい

個性を出さなきゃいけない　そういう流行の無個性で

悟ったように　一歩引いた　匿名希望の傍観者

ちょっと待ってよ　星空は　変わらずあの日と同じだよ

理解されずとも宝物は　今でも宝物のはずでしょう

変化が怖くて　変わらぬ日々も嫌いで

変わりたくて　変われなくて　こどもの頃を思ったりもして

見失いそうで　自分である意味とか

コンビニで目にした太字を　気にしてたんだろう？

でもね　それでもね　見えるものに気付いてよ

だから　僕は僕らしく　そして　君は君らしくって

始めから　探すような　ものではないんだと思うんだ

僕は君じゃないし　君も僕じゃないから

すれ違う　手を繋ぐ　そこには愛だって生まれる

そういうもんさ　自分らしさってなんだろう

変えられない　大切があるから　変わりゆく　生活は正しい

変わらない　大切があるから

English:

What does it mean to yourself? Separate yourself with "your uniqueness"

Saw those words in bold font on a magazine stand at a convenience store

What does it mean to be yourself? When I was a child I didn't care

And got angry when I didn't like how things went, said I liked things if I did

We all change, and the things we want to protect change

From the treasures that weren't acknowledged, to the facade to be acknowledged

As we grow into adults, we grow into creatures with regret

But still, there are things you can see

That's why me being myself and you being yourself

I don't think these are things to aim for in the first place

I'm not you, and you're not me

So we pass by each other, and hold hands, even love can be born there

That's how it is; so what does it mean to be yourself?

We all have irreplaceable things, so an ever-changing life is just fine

You have to show your individuality; seeing such boring fads

Pulled away like they understood, those bystanders who wish to stay anonymous

Wait a minute, the starry sky is just the same as that day

Even if they're misunderstood, aren't treasures still treasures?

Scared of advancement, and yet hating the unchanging days

Wanting to change, being unable to change, then thinking about the days when we we're young

Feeling like you'll lose sight of the meaning to be yourself

You've been bothered by those bold letters you saw at the convenience store, right?

But still, please note the things you can see

That's why me being myself and you being yourself

I don't think these are things to aim for in the first place

I'm not you, and you're not me

So we pass by each other, and hold hands, even love can be born there

That's how it is; so what does it mean to be yourself?

We all have irreplaceable things, so an ever-changing life is just fine

Because we all have unchanging things.
