This Is My Hometown

Lyrics & Composition: Kentarou Kobuchi

My hometown - a sense of freedom flows through this town
Singing a love song shoulder-to-shoulder
It's a magic that can never be broken! It's the best!
This is my hometown

The house I lived in as a child has been demolished and isn't here anymore
but in the corner of a small wardrobe, there was a place only for me
As I made my favorite heroes fight with both my hands
every day I honed the strongest weapon of all: My imagination

Those boys and girls will soon be at the corners of society
having lost their place and hanging their heads, unable to take a fighting pose
It's fine. Throw in the towel once in a while
We have a place to return to: That shop, the back street, the shadows of the overpass
A place for our hearts to revive quietly

My hometown - a sense of freedom flows through this town
Singing a love song shoulder-to-shoulder
It's a magic that can never be broken! It's the best!
This is my hometown. Shall I go?

All my friends around me had one bought for them already
but only our house didn't have one - I understood why
but at the end of my twenties, I realized even my house had things
that no other house had. Searching for a gentle light, I'm looking up at the sky

The more someone acted tough back then, the more easily they cry now
You can cry here. You can break down. Everyone's here
I'm saying this because you helped me on that day:
Do your best! Just once again, do your best for yourself!
No one can stand back up alone

My hometown - as long as they're there, I'll be fine
Having no foundation or reason is the strongest, realest
love and friendship
My hometown - a sense of freedom flows through this town
Singing a love song shoulder-to-shoulder
It's a magic that can never be broken! It's the best!

My hometown - a sense of freedom flows through this town
(My hometown) (a sense of freedom)
Singing a love song shoulder-to-shoulder
(Love song)
It's a magic that can never be broken!

My hometown - the sun's setting again today. Shall we go home?
(My hometown) (Shall we go home?)
We'll walk with arms around shoulders. When you're lost, come here
(You're lost)
My hometown - it's the best!
This is my hometown. Shall I go?
My hometown

THIS IS MY HOMETOWN

Sakushi & Sakkyoku: Kobushi Kentarou

MY HOMETOWN kono machi ni nagareru kaihoukan
Kata yoseai utau ai no uta
Itsumademo tokenai mahou da saikou da!
THIS IS MY HOMETOWN

Youshouki kurashita ano ie wa kowasarete mou nai kedo
Semai oshiire no sumikko ni jibun dake no ibasho ga atta
Oki ni iri no hiirootachi wo ryoute de tatakawasenagara
Mainichi migaiteta'n da souzouryoku to iu na no saikyou no buki wo

Sonna shounen shoujotachi mo yagate shakai no sumikko de
Ibasho wo nakushi faitingu poozu wo torezu ni unadarete shimau
Ii sa tama niwa jibun ni taoru wo nagete yare
Bokura niwa kaeru basho ga aru ano mise rojiura rikkyou no kage
Sotto kokoro ga ikikaeru basho

MY HOMETOWN kono machi ni nagareru kaihoukan
Kata yoseai utau ai no uta
Itsumademo tokenai mahou da saikou da!
THIS IS MY HOMETOWN saa ikou ka

Mawari no nakama wa tooku ni katte moraeteta mono ga
Uchi no ie ni dake nai sono jijou wa wakatteta kedo
Doko no ie nimo nai mono ga uchi ni datte atta'n da to
Kizuita nijuudai no owari yasashii akashi wo sagashi sora wo miageteru

Mukashi warubireteta yatsu hodo namida moroku natte kiteru
Koko nara naitemo ii tsuburetemo ii minna ga iru kara
Ano hi ore wo tasukete kureta omae dakara iu'n da zo
Ganbare! Mou ichido dake jibun no tame ni ganbare!
Daremo hitori ja tachiagarenai

MY HOMETOWN aitsu ga iru nara daijoubu sa
Nan no konkyo mo riyuu mo nai hou ga saikyou de honmono no
Aijou da yuujou da
MY HOMETOWN kono machi ni nagareru kaihoukan
Kata yoseai utau ai no uta
Itsumademo tokenai mahou da saikou da!

MY HOMETOWN kono machi ni nagareru kaihoukan
(MY HOMETOWN) (Kaihoukan)
Kata yoseai utau ai no uta
(Ai no uta)
Itsumademo tokenai mahou da

MY HOMETOWN kyou mo hi ga kureru kaerou ka
(MY HOMETOWN) (Kaerou ka)
Kata dakiai aruku mayotta toki niwa koko ni oide
(Mayotta)
MY HOMETOWN saikou da!
THIS IS MY HOMETOWN saa ikou ka
MY HOMETOWN

THIS IS MY HOMETOWN
