Lyrics

I must prevail 
in this endless war 
with myself 
I fight me

'Cause I like me 
Don't wanna look in the mirror today 
and see that I haven't changed 
I fight me

Wish for a better world 
We do every day every night 
But that's not enough 
Gotta take that major step

Watching who will lead 
Waiting's never been the style of mine 
Let me be the one 
The first piece of tomorrow

I must prevail 
in this endless war 
with myself 
I fight me

'Cause I like me 
Don't wanna look in the mirror today 
and see that I haven't changed 
I fight me

I fight me 
I like me 
I fight me 
I like me

Song Connections / Remixes

None.

Song Production Information

kobo

It's been a while, IIDX fans. It's me, kobo.

In the course of daily life, one can be swept up by the constant changes.
Occasionally, one needs a break at a resort.

With that idea in mind, I composed this song.
I had Marsha sing this song in a loud voice and with full feeling.

Marsha

This is Marsha.
"I FIGHT ME" means "a fight with myself."

A person can change, but he or she must confront his or her self that does not want to change and defeat it.

Why do I want to change? Because I like it. Because it is important to me.

It is important to me because it allows me to summon up the courage to fight old ideas and ways of thinking.

Forward I come to fight, gradually learning more and more about myself. After that, I like to relax at a resort.
"All right!", I can clean myself off. I wanted to sing with that feeling of relaxation after a hard day's work.

Video Production Information

For this movie I made, I used the title "I FIGHT ME" to express the eternal battle within me.

This battle is between a closed world (my present self) and an open world (my new self), with two drops of willpower, becoming like shining light, falling to the ground, with the new self gradually cutting through the old self.

Every person must eventually confront his or her old self.
I made this movie as a representation of this conflict.
