Man oh man. Legends never fade!
And what a legend Shing02 is! F1RST S1GHT is his first release in a while if I’m not mistaken, and it features production by Yakkle and scratches by SPIN MASTER A-1. After listening I feel completely rejuvenated and revitalized, my energies being woken up and ready for the week. Shing02 has the ability to put his entire soul into his music, not just in his writing but also in the talent he chooses to work with. There’s so much life in his creations; there always has been. Listen to F1RST S1GHT below, I’ve also included the translated lyrics.
初恋みたいに忘れられない
あの空気、あの時代に戻りたい
通りでバッタリ、君に会いたい
良い意味で期待を裏切られたいって
毎回、胸の高鳴りでBreakin’
壊れるよりも踊るよ今日と言う日が最高に恋しくて
同時に明日が待ち遠しくて
何の心配も無い澄み切った空、
級に心が晴れて君が側に
いるだけで未来は七色さ
何とかなるなんて潔さ
好きだからこそ阿呆になれる
喜怒哀楽とことん付き合える
I likeがloveに変わるまでを
我慢してこそ愛が芽生える今も繋がってる 月日が経ち散らばってる
欠片集めて さっきのことみたいに覚えてる
新鮮な想いは時を超えてく
今も繋がってる 月日が経ち散らばってる
欠片集めて さっきのことみたいに覚えてる
神聖な想いは時を超えてる何もかもが新しい
目に飛び込み、手当たり次第に
触れてみて古き良き物に驚き
旋毛から足の裏に轟き
命吹き込みたくなる 気持ち渦巻く
ちょっとやってみたら、すぐ上手く
出来た気がしてまだまだ
初期衝動なのに末期症状
病み付きでもそれで良い
寂しくても心地良い
暗い空間の灯火
寝ても覚めても離れない君は一生の友達
涙無くして語れぬ夜も
何か亡くして見つけた朝も
この先何があったとしても、
愛変わらずのままでいてよだから今も繋がってる 月日が経ち散らばってる
欠片集めて さっきのことみたいに覚えてる
新鮮な想いは時を超えてく
今も繋がってる 月日が経ち散らばってる
欠片集めて さっきのことみたいに覚えてる
神聖な想いは時を超えてる(translation)
can’t forget it like the first love
longing to go back to that mood and time
hoping to run into you on the street
wanting expectations to be broken, in a good way
every time my heart beats faster, towards breaking
not apart but to dance, today seems so dear
at the same time tomorrow can’t come sooner
a clear sky with absolutely no worries
my mind is sunny when you’re beside me
the future is the color of rainbows
so confident everything will work out
I can be foolish because I like it
down with the gamut of emotions
if you can wait until like turns into love
then you will see it growstill connected, time passes and scattered
collect the pieces, still remember like moments ago
a fresh feeling travels beyond time
still connected, time passes and scattered
collect the pieces, still remember like moments ago
a sacred feeling travels beyond timeeverything appears new
to the novice eye, whatever I can get my hands on
rediscovering treasures from the past
shock resonates from cowlick to sole
a swirl of inspiration to breathe life into it
a little try, and it feels so perfect
although it’s only the beginning
I already feel like the symptom is terminal
I can be an addict but it’s alright
being lonely feel comfortable
a lamp in darkness
you’re with me day or night, friend of a lifetime
on a night I can’t hold back tears
in a morning I find what I’ve lost
no matter what happens from here on out
I hope that you stay the same
