English Translation by Nicki A. (@uchiakebanashi)

Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life…
Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life...

If you got the fame you better give it away
I’ve got no interest in rusted pasts
Now What you got is shine like a Diamond
But what about the end if you keep clinging to the past？
Now What you got is shine like a Diamond
With nothing on us, we fight
I'm a Gemstone

The dampened mood everywhere
Throw your insecurities and indecisions in the bin
Your dreams and fantasies are your weapons you know?
Who did you say was gonna snatch them away?

Your rival is your figure in the future (What?)
That you’ve painted in your head (What?)
You’re a nobody
Still yet to take shape
Being polished for this sake

The mike that’s connected to that cheap amp
Hyping up alone in my room
I don’t need pride or basics
I decide my own talent’s size

The goal is to become a diamond or sapphire
I don’t care, I don’t need guidance
I’ve spread my wings into the world carrying aspirations harbored from the debris
Of the horizon swallowed up by mother nature, Gaia

If you got the fame you better give it away
I’ve got no interest in rusted pasts
Now What you got is shine like a Diamond
But what about the end if you keep clinging to the past？
Now What you got is shine like a Diamond
With nothing on us, we fight
I'm a Gemstone

Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life…
Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life...

We continue shining, along with our offerings
Always with a fresh stance

Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life...

Don’t you dare withdraw
Somebody whispered
That moving forward is scary
That’s for sure
But it’s now or never
By resting on yesterday’s laurels
You’ve evaded the voice of tomorrow’s you
It’s not easy fighting yourself

If you run away from yourself, you’re fired

Fire!

If you got the fame you better give it away
I’ve got no interest in rusted pasts
Now What you got is shine like a Diamond
But what about the end if you keep clinging to the past？
Now What you got is shine like a Diamond
We fight without anything on us
I'm a Gemstone

Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life…
Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life...

We continue shining, along with our offerings
Always with a fresh stance

Gemstone, you're a gemstone so bright
Gemstone, you're a gemstone all life...

We continue shining, along with our offerings
Always with a fresh stance
