何もかも変わり続けていくから もう歩き出そう いつか来た道が あの頃の二人のスピード 追いこしたとしても 叶わない夢の続き 笑い飛ばしてボクらは 始まりをまた探すよ この先をあきらめたワケじゃない! 今、なんて完璧なFeeling いつだって鉄壁のMy mind 退屈な言い訳蹴飛ばして 鏡の前 思い出す 心に決めてた 誓いとか約束の途中 何一つ忘れちゃいないよ ボクらはまだ行けっから ね、自信に満ちた 誇らしげな弱虫がいい 何もかも変わり続けていくから もう歩き出そう 自分のままでね 忘れないでいて欲しいよ うまくいくときがあるから ね、自信に満ちた 得意げな顔でいようね 弱虫のままで行こうね ボクらは変わらず いようね!

Song Production Information
Yu Takami
I played the guitar on some of nagureo's songs in BEMANI, but this is the first time I provided a song in the series. Please look after me from now on.
I'm a guitar player by nature, so my body reacts to snare-led band sounds more than the so-called dance music.
The inclusion of the LR guitar also feels nice.
Since this song has singing, I wanted people to hum along. The singer brilliantly responded from my orders to sing with a cute feeling. The performance is packed after all, so the singing stands out, right? (While saying this, I performed a steady, delicious guitar solo)
Video Production Information
VJ GYO
Was this song played in TV commercials? This song contains a bright and cheerful rock sound, which is catchy and highly perfected, which makes you ask this question.
Among the lineup of songs included on successive IIDX games centered on club music, this song is said to clearly be a new trend, together with the same rock-styled "memories", but this new version smoothly blends in and expands that world.
Rather than opening a new door~, perhaps an accurate expression is to say a hidden door was opened.
In club music production, it seems many works are completed by programming electronic instruments without live instruments, but many composers participating in IIDX previously had experience in band activities, or are skilled at playing various instruments.
IIDX has been nourished by such composers and grew up with them, and I feel like they accomplished at making IIDX transcend and embrace musical genres.
