"I won't dance to a script designed for someone else. I stay loyal to who I am today, not to past memories or future ideals."
Instead of treating the so-called "midlife crisis" as something heavy or fearful, this song is a midnight anthem about sipping coffee at 2 AM and embracing your own unique journey.
Having pushed through the struggles and doubts of his 20s and 30s, the narrator finds strength and freedom in the present. Refusing to freeze into one permanent shape, this track is a warm, chill lo-fi hip-hop ode to constantly evolving and staying true to "today's self."
[Intro] (
Vinyl crackle sound, warm acoustic guitar riff) (Steaming coffee mug atmosphere, chill 85BPM lo-fi beat)
[Verse 1 - Rap]
Clock hits 2 AM, the city goes quiet One sip of coffee, room filled with silence People talk about a midlife crisis Looking for a single lane, asking where the line is
Pick just one path, that's what everybody told me But I kind of like this messy road before me Broke all the rules, threw the script away Planting new seeds in my room till the break of day
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't want my story edited five years later Smoothed-out edges made to look much greater Before these raw moments fade into a memory I put them into words right here in reality
[Chorus]
Midlife crisis and 2 AM coffee I won't dance to a script designed for me Not bound by the past or who I'm supposed to be I just flow through the night, untamed and free Stay loyal to who I am today, that's all I need
[Verse 2 - Rap]
Hit a wall in my twenties, lost in my thirties Falling down enough times made my vision clear and sturdy Maybe drinking the poison early was a blessing in disguise Busy living every moment, no time for crisis in my eyes
Small little failures, laughing with the kids at night Writing my own story under this desk light Even if money's low or days get a little rough If I can smile and say I'm happy, that's more than enough
[Pre-Chorus]
Whatever comes my way, my attitude is mine to choose Even on backward days, there's nothing here to lose Stepping forward slowly on the path I paved Holding on to this small light that I saved
[Chorus]
Midlife crisis and 2 AM coffee I won't dance to a script designed for me Not bound by the past or who I'm supposed to be I just flow through the night, untamed and free Stay loyal to who I am today, that's all I need
[Instrumental Break / Solo]
(Chill acoustic guitar and synth pad solo)
[Bridge - Melodic Rap]
Even if the job changes, even if the work shifts It's not a betrayal, it's proof I listened to my gifts Refusing to freeze into one permanent shape Changing every single day, letting my soul escape
[Chorus]
Midlife crisis and 2 AM coffee I won't dance to a script designed for me Not bound by the past or who I'm supposed to be I just flow through the night, untamed and free Stay loyal to who I am today, that's all I need
[Outro]
Rewriting the story, choosing once again Taking one more sip, holding up the pen Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll walk with a smile Stay loyal to today... (Fade out with vinyl noise and gentle guitar strum)

A quiet sense of discomfort with the typical Japanese summer homework system, where everyone is expected to reach the exact same "right answer."
Taking a step beyond that, this is an at-home experiment in "Value Exchange"âwhere children articulate their interests and emotions through their favorite manga or books (like Blue Lock), and receive compensation for their expressed value.
Moving away from "Passive Compliance" toward "Active Ownership"âtaking the reins of one's own life by choice.
Taking action not out of a sense of "have-to," but out of a genuine "want-to."
We poured this message into a dynamic rock song to encourage everyone to step forward not on a track laid out by someone else, but as the true main character of their own lives.
ð¡ ãHighlightsã
ð ãFull Lyricsã
[Intro]
(Bright Electric Guitar & Synth Melodies)
(Gradual build-up with powerful drum beat)
[Verse 1]
Under the cookie-cutter summer sky
Chasing the "one right answer" every day
Filling up the lines of a pre-made page
Like distant echoes of somebody's cry
[Verse 2]
I used to play the honor student too
Looking for safety on a track laid out for me
But when I lost the words I called my own
I drowned in the waves and learned defeat
[Pre-Chorus]
Why turn the pages just to stay out of trouble?
Why not shout out the moments that make your heart beat?
Cast away the passive answers right now
Turn that inner spark into action!
[Chorus]
Shine bright! Paint the story with your own words
Passion for Blue Lock sets your spirit free
Strip away all the "have-to"s in your head
Run with the impulse of "I want to do this!"
You are the main character of your own life!
[Verse 3]
Pouring true emotions on manuscript sheets
Two hundred words of hope, eight hundred of fire
When we exchange the value we hold inside
The spark in your eyes turns into pure pride
[Verse 4]
From the cold reality of a lawyer's true heart
To the stormy history of the Sengoku era
It all turns to blood, to wisdom in your soul
True growth is waiting past the sense of duty
[Pre-Chorus]
Stop being just a consumer of information
Grab the reins of your life with your own control
Cast off the fear, let your desires take the lead
Let the world hear your one-and-only voice!
[Chorus]
Dance out! On a free canvas with no boundaries
Keep the inner fire burning bright and alive
Even if you're lost in an era with no answers
The path you choose yourself will light up the future
Take active ownership and take a step forward!
[Guitar Solo]
(Emotional and powerful electric guitar solo)
(Dynamic shift and rising tension)
[Bridge]
(Calm piano & subtle strings, slowly building)
Ask yourself deep down inside
Not just fulfilling the roles the world demands
Do you hold the key inside yourself, in the next generation,
To keep that inner fire burning bright?
(Drums kick in heavily)
Even a small step will do
Start weaving your story right here, right now!
[Chorus]
(Maximum energy)
Shine bright! Paint the story with your own words
Hold fast to the voice that belongs to only you
Strip away all the "have-to"s in your head
Push through with the impulse of "I want to do this!"
You are the main character of your own life!
[Outro]
(Uplifting guitar riffs & synth harmonies)
No longer a sidekick in someone else's tale
The reins of your life are right in your hands
Keep burning that inner spark...
(Fade out with energetic beat and lingering acoustic guitar)

2 AM, and I'm awake again.
Years ago, I collapsed on the floor. That day, I swore I'd never lose myself again.
For my family, for the company â swallowing my heart, holding it in, day after day.
But even if I give everything, all 99 out of 100, the company doesn't remember any of them now.
What changed me was a scene I witnessed in Tarlac, Luzon, in the Philippines.
No one laughed at the mistakes. No one looked away. Everyone stood up as themselves, singing loud and free.
That clumsy, honest courage changed me that day.
San Francisco, Beijing, Honolulu, Taipei â every city I visited taught me something I never saw at home.
And I realized: only after leaving Japan did I finally hold its value close to my heart.
This isn't a product. It isn't a lie.
I just want to stand beside you, as you practice taking off the mask.
That's the feeling behind this song.
[Lyrics]
[Verse 1]
2 AM, I wake up again
Not because I have to â a start I chose myself
Years ago, I collapsed on the floor
I swore I'd never lose myself again
[Verse 2]
Hands that work to build someone else's dream
For my family, for the company â swallowing my heart, holding it in
Even if I give everything, all 99 out of 100
The company doesn't remember any of them now
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes my health breaks down
Sometimes I lose the company's shallow praise
But if I lose myself
Does that pain even mean anything?
[Chorus]
I'm not selling you a product
I'm not selling you a lie
I just want to stand beside you
Next to you, as you practice taking off the mask
Goodbye to the mask you used to wear
Hello to the voice inside
This isn't for sale â it's a challenge to be who you are
[Verse 3]
Sun over Tarlac, Luzon, Philippines â resting in the shade
Everyone singing, dancing, completely free
Graduation in Japan, just rows of the same gray suits
But there, each person stood up as themselves, singing thanks out loud
Dancing in broken English, letting their hearts lead
No one laughed at the mistakes, no one looked away
That clumsy, honest courage changed me that day
[Verse 4]
Hills of San Francisco, dawn breaking over Beijing
The air of Honolulu, night falling on Taipei
Every city taught me something I never saw at home
I didn't know what I had until I left Japan
The quiet streets of Tokyo, small kindness asking nothing back
Only after leaving did I hold Japan's value close to my heart
Now, wherever I fly, I carry Japan inside me
Words can't hold me back anymore â the wall finally came down
Not as a representative of any country, just purely as myself
I stand up and speak the self I was born with, out to the world
[Bridge]
I'll keep going until the last page turns
Even if Substack disappears, this heart keeps burning
Not for money, not for fame
For the ones still hiding behind the mask called "work"
[Chorus - Final]
I'm not selling you a product
I'm not selling you a lie
I just want to stand beside you
Next to you, as you practice taking off the mask
Goodbye to the mask you used to wear
Hello to the voice inside
This isn't for sale â it's a challenge to be who you are
[Outro]
Just lift your eyes from the desk for a moment
Somewhere, someone is dancing in the hallway
No stage needed, no audience needed
Just sing your true voice, loud and clear
Just sing your true voice, loud and clear

ãPeace Was Always Hereã
Peace isn't something you feel because you did something â
it's always there, underneath everything.
That's the idea behind this song.
Being true to yourself. Choosing your own path, your own colors,Â
your own choices â that's what peace and happiness are made of.
This is a belief that comes from my own experience.
And it's why I tell my children: not "listen to your parents,"Â
but listen to your own senses.
⌠Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I didn't notice, but it was here
No special reason, it's always near
On days I force a smile, on days I lose my way
It's waiting quietly, peace is here to stay
[Chorus]
Find your way back, to being true
Choose your own path, your favorite hue
You don't have to live someone else's life
Peace and happiness are already here inside
[Verse 2]
Killing my heart, doing what I don't want to do
At work, at home, playing someone I'm not true to
On days like that, peace never comes around
This truth I've learned, from what I've found
[Chorus]
Find your way back, to being true
Choose your own path, your favorite hue
You don't have to live someone else's life
Peace and happiness are already here inside
[Bridge]
To my children, this is what I want to say
Not "listen to your parents" â find your own way
Trust in your own senses, let them be your guide
Your favorite clothes, your favorite choice, decide
[Chorus]
Find your way back, to being true
Choose your own path, your favorite hue
You don't have to live someone else's life
Peace and happiness are already here inside
[Outro]
I didn't notice, but it was here
It's always been here, always near

ãEven If No One Reads Itã
Why do I keep creating content? Why do I keep writing on Substack, even though English isn't my first language?
Not for the money. Not to sell you a method or package my knowledge as a product.
I just want to leave behind this clumsy, honest version of myself in my 40s â captured through today's filter, before it fades.
Even if no one reads it, even if no one listens â
if it's the greatest thing you've made, at least to you, that's enough.
That's the idea behind this song.
---
ð Lyrics
[Intro]
(soft acoustic guitar, quiet humming)
[Verse 1]
I'm not so good with English words
I lean on AI, that's how it works
But still I write what today brings
Before it fades, before it disappears
As long as this platform stands
I'll keep on reaching out my hand
Not for the money, not to sell a scheme
Just to leave this clumsy, honest dream
[Pre-Chorus]
If my paid readers start to grow
I'll have more time to let it flow
But I won't sell you "how to win"
I just want to show you where I've been
[Chorus]
Even if nobody reads it
Your story has its worth
At the very least, to you
It's the greatest on this earth
Even if nobody hears it
Your song still finds its place
At the very least, to you
It's the greatest you could make
[Verse 2]
Articles, videos, podcasts too
Music, songs, all made for you
They're not separate, not apart
They're one true thing, one single heart
For those who read, I write it down
For those who watch, I turn it 'round
For those who listen, I record my voice
For those who feel, a song's my choice
[Pre-Chorus]
As AI keeps on growing fast
Maybe someday, beyond the past
It'll carry this same truth I hold
In ways we've never seen unfold
[Chorus]
Even if nobody watches
Your video has its worth
At the very least, to you
It's the greatest on this earth
Even if nobody's listening
Your podcast finds its place
At the very least, to you
It's the greatest you could make
[Bridge]
Whether you're working nine to five
Freelance, in between, still trying to thrive
A student, a parent, retired at last
Or free from money, living fast
Be who you are, let it come alive
Send your voice out, set it free to fly
The process itself, the work, the art
That's what matters, that's the start
They say your work means nothing at all
Unless somebody hears the call
But I believe it's fine to start
Making something just for your own heart
[Final Chorus]
Even if nobody reads it
Your story has its worth
Even if nobody hears it
Your song still finds its place
At the very least, to you
It'll be the greatest one you've made
At the very least, to you
A treasure that will never fade
[Outro]
As long as this platform stands
I'll keep on writing, keep on writing
Keep on writing...
(guitar fades out)
