xTRiPx - 10+1 (english translation)

I think I at least got the gist of most of the verses, but the one about winning/victory really went over my head, so I'd take that part with a grain of salt. The starred lines are probably very wrong.

I played around with the engrish a bit to make it flow better, but the romaji has the original lyrics.



10+1

10+1 365 days* ago I recklessly turned my escalating emotions into sound
At that time, I didn’t know
That that song would allow me to meet so many new friends
Signs of the beginning

Nobody ever knows when the end will come
But even if it comes tomorrow, I’ll probably have no regrets
The morning this began, I had no idea what the future held
I got into the car and the sunlight shone on my rearview mirror
Now, I’ve piled up tons of dreams and equipment
And it’s a tool that links me to the friends reflected in it

And go against the flow
Somewhere for yourself

Life is what is changing
What can be seen with closed eyes
I’ll get to that future waiting up ahead someday
As long as I keep on believing
Even if my wish doesn’t come true
My life will glow

Somehow, we managed to raise up a big revolution
What’s left after that storm of passion?
Even if the answer is “zero”, that’s fine
Because life is addition

And go against the flow
Somewhere for yourself

Life is what is changing
What can be seen with closed eyes
I’ll get to that future waiting up ahead someday
As long as I keep on believing
Even if my wish doesn’t come true
My life will glow
-my life is glowing-

Does whether or not I was victorious factor into my value system? How?**
It depends on each individual’s life
Whether that victory is fake or a sure thing isn’t something someone else can decide
The image is free in the circling flow of time, uncertain of whether it’s moving quickly or slowly***
It seems like an answer is emerging, but it’s time to start again and lock up****
I can’t stop

10+1 365 days ago, I never could have guessed how much strength you would give me

Life is what is changing
What can be seen with closed eyes
I’ll get to that future waiting up ahead someday
As long as I keep on believing
Even if my wish doesn’t come true
My life will glow

Someday, somewhere

Never give up your dream
It will come true if you keep on believing
And you’ll shine too

Notes:
*I assume this means 10 years + 1x365 days, which would be 11 years, which makes sense since xTRiPx was apparently formed in 2003 and this single was released in 2014.
**, ***, **** I wrote my best guess for these lines, but they're probably wrong.

10+1


Juu tasu WAN sanbyaku-rokujuu-go-nichi mae wa gamushara ni tsunoru omoi o oto ni shita
Ano toki no jibun wa shiranai
Sono uta ga takusan no nakama to deai o kureru
SIGNS OF THE BEGINNING

Itsu owari ga kuru ka wa NOBODY KNOWS
Sore ga ashita demo tabun NO REGRETS
Hajimari no asa mirai shirazu ni
Norikonda BAKKUMIRAA ni sasu hi
Ima ja yamazumi no yume to kizai
Utsuru nakama tsunagari no TOOL

AND GO AGAINST THE FLOW
SOMEWHERE BECAUSE YOURSELF

THE LIFE IS, WHAT IS CHANGING
WHAT CAN BE SEEN WITH CLOSED EYES
Sono saki ni matsu mirai DO GET SOMEDAY
AS LONG AS KEEPING ON BELIEVING
EVEN IF NOT COME TRUE
MY LIFE WILL GLOW

Nanka DEKAI kakumei okoshite yan da
Ikimaite kekka nani ga nokotta?
Kotae ga ZERO demo ii
Jinsei wa tashizan dakara

AND GO AGAINST THE FLOW
SOMEWHERE BECAUSE YOURSELF

THE LIFE IS, WHAT IS CHANGING
WHAT CAN BE SEEN WITH CLOSED EYES
Sono saki ni matsu mirai DO GET SOMEDAY
AS LONG AS KEEPING ON BELIEVING
EVEN IF NOT COME TRUE
MY LIFE WILL GLOW
-MY LIFE IS GLOWING-

Kachi ga douka kachikan dou ka dou da?
Sorezore no LIFE shidai
sore ga FEIKU darou ga tashika na MONO darou ga
Kimeru no wa OUTSIDE ja nee
Hayakarou ga osokarou ga mawaru jidai nagare no naka IMAGE jizai de sa
Kotae desou ga mata furidashi de LOCK UP
Tomaru nakare

Juu tasu WAN sanbyaku-rokujuu-go-nichi mae ja kizukenai tsuyosa o kimi ga kureta

THE LIFE IS, WHAT IS CHANGING
WHAT CAN BE SEEN WITH CLOSED EYES
Sono saki ni matsu mirai DO GET SOMEDAY
AS LONG AS KEEPING ON BELIEVING
EVEN IF NOT COME TRUE
MY LIFE WILL GLOW

SOMEDAY, SOMEWHERE

NEVER GIVE UP YOUR DREAM
IT WOULD COME TRUE IF YOU KEEP ON BELIEVING
AND YOU’LL ALSO SHINING

Good Morning America - Kopipe (english translation)

Some of these lines might be a bit off the mark, but I think it's pretty easy to get the gist of what he's saying.



コピペ / Copy and Paste

Music and Lyrics: Shingo Kanehiro

“Are you okay?”
I want people to pay attention to me
My everyday stress and worries are piling up
I send out an SOS from my SNS*

I want people to say “cute!”
So I copy the popular people around me
And paste on a feeling of superiority

Piling up and piling up
I layer someone else’s colours onto myself
Anxiously, I overwrite the file and save it
Oh
Piling up and piling up
In the same colours as everyone else,
Favouriting things seemingly at random**

Kopipepapipepo
Bee-po!! Bee-po!!
Kopipepapipepo
Each person is doing it***

I upload things like clockwork
And click “Like” on a picture of a cute cat
And I even “Like” a picture of tasty-looking food

I want to seem like I'm paying attention,
So if I don’t check my blog, Instagram and LINE I can’t calm down

Piling up and piling up
I layer someone else’s colours onto myself
Anxiously, I overwrite the file and save it
Oh
Piling up and piling up
In the same colours as everyone else,
Favouriting things seemingly at random**

What are you guys doing?
I’m here
Being left behind is no good
It’s no good
What do you guys want to do?
How do I want to live?
Chasing after updates, I’m losing sight of it

Kopipepapipepo
Each person is doing it***

Piling up and piling up
I layer someone else’s colours onto myself
Anxiously, I overwrite the file and save it
Oh
Piling up and piling up
In the same colours as everyone else,
I’m forgetting the real me

Kopipepapipepo
Bee-po!! Bee-po!!
Kopipepapipepo
Each person is doing it***

Notes:
*Social Networking Site (Twitter, Facebook, etc.)
**As in clicking "favourite" on a tweet
***This is probably wrong. Honestly, I’m not really sure if the chorus has any meaning or if it’s just a bunch of sounds
