Lyrics[]
Ai-suru hito o mamoru tame ni kitto
Otoko wa umarete kita yo
Ai ga nakerya, tsuyoku nakerya
Yasashiku wa narenai
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
Zubunure ni naru koto ga wakatteite mo
Tamerawazu ame no nake saa tobikomou
Arashi ga sugita ato no
Kagayaku niji no you ni
Kanashimi ni makenai asa
Yume no DOA ga hiraku
Ai-suru hito o mamoru tame ni kitto
Otoko wa umarete kita yo
Kimi no namida nuguu yubi wa
Sukoshi rambou demo
Kokoro no itami naku naru made zutto
Otoko wa tatakau darou
Ai ga nakerya, tsuyoku nakerya
Yasashiku wa narenai
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
Tsumibukai omoide o umi ni shuzumete
Hito wa mata hate-shinai tabi ni deru no sa
Hageshii kaze ga fuite
Egao ga tobasarete mo
Yuuki sae mune ni areba
Itsuka yume ni aeru
Ai-suru hito o mamoru tame ni kitto
Otoko wa umarete kita yo
Ai ga nakerya, tsuyoku nakerya
Yasashiku wa narenai
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
Ai-suru hito o mamoru tame ni kitto
Otoko wa umarete kita yo
Kimi no namida nuguu yubi wa
Sukoshi rambou demo
Kokoro no itami naku naru made zutto
Otoko wa tatakau darou
Ai ga nakerya, tsuyoku nakerya
Yasashiku wa narenai
Surely, for the sake of protecting the people he loves
Man was born
If one does not love, if one is not strong
They cannot become kind
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
Even if you know you will be drenched
Go ahead and jump into the relentless rain
Like the shining rainbow
From after the storm has gone
A morning that won't give in to sadness
The door of dreams opens
Surely, for the sake of protecting the people he loves
Man was born
Even though the finger wiping your tears
Is a bit violent
Until the pain in his heart is no more
A man should fight forever
If one does not love, if one is not strong
They cannot become kind
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
Letting memories full of sins sink into the sea
A person sets out again on an endless journey
Fierce winds blow
Even if they blow away your smile
If you just have courage in your heart
Someday you`ll meet your dream
Surely, for the sake of protecting the people he loves
Man was born
If one does not love, if one is not strong
They cannot become kind
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
Surely, for the sake of protecting the people he loves
Man was born
Even though the finger wiping your tears
Is a bit violent
Until the pain in his heart is no more
A man should fight forever
If one does not love, if one is not strong
They cannot become kind
愛する人を守る為にきっと
男は生まれてきたよ
愛がなけりゃ 強くなけりゃ
優しくはなれない
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
ずぶ濡れになる事が わかっていても
ためらわず雨の中 さぁ飛び込もう
嵐がすぎた後の
輝く虹のように
悲しみに負けない朝
夢のドアが開く
愛する人を守る為にきっと
男は生まれてきたよ
君の涙ぬぐう指は
少し乱暴でも
心の痛みなくなるまでずっと
男は戦うだろう
愛がなけりゃ 強くなけりゃ
優しくはなれない
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
罪深い思い出を 海に沈めて
人はまた果てしない 旅に出るのさ
激しい風が吹いて
笑顔が飛ばされても
勇気さえ胸にあれば
いつか夢に会える
愛する人を守る為にきっと
男は生まれてきたよ
愛がなけりゃ 強くなけりゃ
優しくはなれない
Don't break your dream
Smile once again
愛する人を守る為にきっと
男は生まれてきたよ
君の涙ぬぐう指は
少し乱暴でも
心の痛みなくなるまでずっと
男は戦うだろう
愛がなけりゃ 強くなけりゃ
優しくはなれない
