~ 更に向こうへ+ウルトラ ~

Once upon a time I watched the first 5 seasons or so of Boku no Hero Academia. This song stood out to me as being the coolest one, so I rewrote the lyrics into English and had the lovely PrinceWhateverer produce a new instrumental for it as well. The bass however proved to be quite complex, so we enlisted the assistance of Cyril the Wolf to record the groovy bass-line you hear in the final song now. The rest of the instruments were performed and recorded by Prince, including that rad original guitar solo. He's so cool~

Hope you enjoy the result, and please give lots of love and appreciation to Prince and Cyril for being such incredible musicians, as well as to my good pal Chuu for making some cool visuals for the video when all I asked him for was a still image. What a sweetheart (He makes lovely AMVs too, link below)~ Go check out their cool stuff if you can ^_^

I purposefully avoided listening to other English dubs of this song while writing it so I wouldn't be influenced by anyone else's ideas. I actually only just went and listened to the others I could find for the first time yesterday. There are a bunch of them, but I hope you don't mind one more, heh.

[Lyrics]

(I know what I have to do now)
(It's my life)
One and only

I have cried a thousand times and wiped wet tears dry from my eyes
I don’t expect the bluer skies to show their face so easily
(Follow my way) I’ll carry my frustrations forward
(Follow my way) and show the world that I’m no coward

Hey boy, you gonna chase down those dreams that fill you up with fright?
(I know what I have to do now)
Lives are in danger so you’ve got to stand up in spite
I know somehow you will find the Might

(Make my story!)
You’ll rise to the challenge like no one has ever before
If there’s a chance then take it, I know you can make it
You’ll reach the stars, you’ll go farther beyond
(Make my story!)
Yeah, days will arrive when your tears fall like rain from your eyes
But no matter what happens, wherever the path bends
You’ll carry on, you’ll find a brand new dawn

I have felt a thousand eyes, all staring, burning with despise
Their lips they speak a thousand lies, they tear me down and criticize
(Have it your way) yeah, my mistakes for all to see
(Have it your way) but you will never know me

Hey boy, gotta know that you’ll meet defeat after defeat
(I know what I have to do now)
That’s how it is but I know you can rise past the heat
Past the hopelessness, off your feet

(Make my story!)
The woes of your heart will drag you down to tear you apart
So don’t drown in your sorrow, just look to tomorrow
You live this way and you’ll find you’re okay
(Make my story!)
Though days will arrive when your tears fall like rain from your eyes
If you just keep pushing through then those days fall behind you
In every stride live life like you’re alive

Humiliate me all that you want, it’s not like it’s the first
I’ll take it and carry my frustrations forward
Day after day we all fight to find hope in dismay
Are you looking for a way to change? A truth to save?

(Make my story!)
I’ll find what’s important and shout it all over the world
Through the thunder and lightning the sunlight is blinding
Up off the floor, I’ll spread my wings and soar
(Make my story!)
And rise to the challenge like no one has ever before
In my heart I see clearly, I’ll conquer my fear, see
To stand, to smile, to show that I am here

(I know what I have to do now)
(I know what I have to do now)
(I know what I have to do now)
