Kanji
未来をいまに追い抜いて　足跡で描いた地上絵 その目に宿せ 光と火

重ねた夢の影 迷い顔 映る窓 有象無象　扉の向こうの群青 掴めば夢の影　答えは風の中 きっとまだ見えないもの

渇いた足跡も　辿れば幼き日 瞬きも忘れて

未来を君と追い抜いて　見たいのさ　この目で新章を バトンロード　振り返ると　君だけの地上絵 いまは涙の種だって　咲かせれば偉大な伝承花 その目に宿せ　光と火

宿せ　君の未来 宿せ　いつまでも

English
We can overtake the future now by drawing the footprints painted on the ground Put that light and fire in your eye

When I slept I had a shadowy dream, my face reflected on my window pane Beyond the imaginary door is an ultramarine blue color The answer to that shadowy dream can be found by the sound of the wind Surely it can not be seen yet

If your thirst for the good old days, follow the path to your childhood days Just remember don't forget to blink

I wanna overtake the future with you as the new chapter of the story unfolds Looking back at Baton Road, the painting on the ground was you The tears that are falling down from your face will start to bloom into a great big flower Put that light and fire in your eye

It is your future to make Your future to stay alive

Trivia
