This song is the sports theme song for the Japanese television station NHK and is being used during their coverage of the Olympics. YOASOBI has just completed a festival in Chicago and a solo show in New York, and their next planned show is in Boston.
The lyrics are as follows: Innocently imagined The future me’s back I just kept chasing after it Surely, it will soon disappear Believing they’ll overlap This is my future Out of many, I chose it Because I knew from the start It had to be this, nothing else I didn’t want to lose to anyone Even if it was tough, I kept running Day after day In a world where wins and losses are clear Liking it isn’t enough to survive Always results and achievements It’s not a game I understand that But because I liked it, I didn’t give up I believe these reckless days Are connected to the outcome I wished for Now, standing on the long-awaited stage Heart pounding, a signal to challenge Over and over again I imagined it I’ll surpass any version of myself Taking a deep breath in and out If I lift my gaze once more Even the days full of scabs Seem connected to now Yes, I’m standing in the scenery I dreamed of There were times I stood still before absurdity Others said whatever they liked I didn’t know why I was fighting anymore Even at those times, I somehow reached out Because you, fighting beside me, were there Always Standing on the stage I longed for Reflecting on everything until now For every tear shed I stood back up Taking a deep breath in and out Slowly opening my eyelids I’ll step forward I’ll go meet The future me I imagined Now, standing on the long-awaited stage The signal for the start echoes now Over and over again I imagined it I can surpass any version of myself Taking a deep breath in and out If I quietly lift my gaze I can think that none of the moments until now were wasted Yes, I’m standing in the future I dreamed of now Yes, the future me I innocently imagined Is already there I’ve surely captured it now

The lyrics are as follows:
Innocently imagined
The future me’s back
I just kept chasing after it
Surely, it will soon disappear
Believing they’ll overlap
This is my future
Out of many, I chose it
Because I knew from the start
It had to be this, nothing else
I didn’t want to lose to anyone
Even if it was tough, I kept running
Day after day
In a world where wins and losses are clear
Liking it isn’t enough to survive
Always results and achievements
It’s not a game
I understand that
But because I liked it, I didn’t give up
I believe these reckless days
Are connected to the outcome
I wished for
Now, standing on the long-awaited stage
Heart pounding, a signal to challenge
Over and over again
I imagined it
I’ll surpass any version of myself
Taking a deep breath in and out
If I lift my gaze once more
Even the days full of scabs
Seem connected to now
Yes, I’m standing in the scenery I dreamed of
There were times I stood still before absurdity
Others said whatever they liked
I didn’t know why I was fighting anymore
Even at those times,
I somehow reached out
Because you, fighting beside me, were there
Always
Standing on the stage I longed for
Reflecting on everything until now
For every tear shed
I stood back up
Taking a deep breath in and out
Slowly opening my eyelids
I’ll step forward
I’ll go meet
The future me I imagined
Now, standing on the long-awaited stage
The signal for the start echoes now
Over and over again
I imagined it
I can surpass any version of myself
Taking a deep breath in and out
If I quietly lift my gaze
I can think that none of the moments until now were wasted
Yes, I’m standing in the future I dreamed of now
Yes, the future me I innocently imagined
Is already there
I’ve surely captured it now
