Say the word!

Say the word, and it's my dreams come true
I'm just waiting for you to say the word

Def Tech - My way [2005]

Def Tech - My way
I Def Tech sono il gruppo che ha coniato un nuovo genere musicale, il Jawaiian reggae (Japanese + Hawaiian Reggae), dalle sonorità molto particolari.

My way è un brano del 2005, contenuto nell'omonimo album Def Tech.

---- Lyrics ----

* Def Tech sound Shen and Micro 'round singing on and on and on
Chi ni ashitsuka Atama kumo nuke Susumu mae ni mae ni mae ni
Te wo tsunageba kowakunai kara Soko made omae wa yowakunai kara
Demo itsumademo Soba ni inai kara
Believe my way my way my way

"Believe it my way" are some words to live by
No matter how you feelin' even if you wanna cry
You gotsta do what you do, stayin' true to your crew
Givin' it soul on the role but always keepin' it new
With your own style, own existence, own reality
Bring complexity and love with creativity
Days are something special be your own vessel
Just take what's inside and give it a wrestle
Bring it to the light of day take flight
Inject your own music to make up your own hype
It don't matter what you say, gotsta do it my way
Don't display dismay stand up straight and portray
What you are inside so you know who you are
Livin' it up, with no doubt ready for any scar
So that's it, go make a hit, go out, benefit
From the words that we spit and never, never, ever quit

* Repeat

Mou koko made yattekite shimatta to ka
Mou dou demo ii Dou suru koto mo dekinai to ka
Akirame hitanshi negeki kanashimi Jibun nagusameita waru sono aida ni mo
Bokura wo hitsuyou to suru dareka ga iru Doko ni iru
Sagasu koto de kawaru Yatto sukoshi wakatta FURI
Hara kara koe dashita SERIFU ga ikikai
Mazari ai Katari ai that kawawari ai to tetsumonaku DEKAI ya
So deai ya Jiai ya from mouth to ear Kono kagiri aru mugen no sekai ga
Kimi no chikyuu e check your head ima IMEEJI no ue
Ya my way give it away give it away now
Akiramen na Warawasen na Nagusameten na Soba de hagemashita yanan
Ah

* Repeat

Just do it "my way" take all these words to heart
Cuz it's the part to jump your life ahead to a new start
The way it should go down from beneath your feet to crown
Take the first step, J-U-M-P out the ground
7, 6, 5, 4 free up your mind
D-E-F Tech commin' at ya with the rhymes
We just doin' how we doin', livin' our way too true
Bein' us as we livin' in this Tokyo Zoo
Reach out, extend your hand, you'll find something' to grab
Someone to help you, no doubt, when times make you sad
But just remember after the storm, there will be calm
Just how the dust be setting like in Afghan when we bomb
Lift yourself up, take head, lift up yourself, indeed
Doin' "my way" you gonna find you got all that you need
Life is too short, don't regret or look back to forget
That you were true to "my way" stay real, it's a bet

* Repeat

Yume to genjitsu no hazama de Reisei to jounetsu no aida de
RIMITTO aru one time jinsei wo mitasarenai hibi mo nannaku to
Konaseru jibun ni mazunaritai to Omotta toki kara sugu ni tight
