Life (Dear Grandma) [feat. manzoo & NEMNE]

I remember it like it was yesterday

As a kid, going to stay at your house on the weekends meant time for play

It was time away from whatever was happening out there

I looked forward to it, but so did mama

Seeing relief in her eyes that for a while she didn’t have to be strong

She could just be your daughter

In front of you things that troubled us didn’t seem so big anymore

All you had to do was smile to let us know what family is for

…and when I started playing drums, you were so worried. But you never showed it

Wondering what kind of life can be made from “banging n’ crashing.” That’s what you called it

Saying, “That boy raising a ruckus. with that dream of his.”

Remember when you came to see me live at that concert hall in Yamagata?

おばあちゃんthe one that you wanted me to perform at.

All across Japan people listening now

They’re cheering for me now grandma

It took a while, but I didn’t give up

I get that from you

You can let go my hand

I will be okay

You can let go my hand

I’ll find my way (x2)

I will find the way

I will find the way

You can let go my hand

I’ll find my way

I will find the way

I will find the way

I will find the way

I’ll be okay

I will find the way

I will find the way

I will find the way

Yes I will (x3)

Grandma, you can let go of my hand cause I’mma be okay

they say, diamonds roll to take on new shape

as color and light endlessly blend into a new

showing us beautiful possibilities

I will find the way

I will find the way

I will find my way

home

Lemme hold your hand
