諸業無常 — Shogyou Mujou

Government official, white-collar worker, contracts,
temporary employee, part-time job freeter*
The democracy that humans have decided;
what strange person is it for? What's freedom?
In order to survive in this era where people eat people,
let's get wisdom


One by one, attacked by raging waves,
in between of losing myself and overcoming them
Even if I'm not crying or lazing about, I can't find a decent job
Even if I get caught up in temporary employment,
I can't complain since those are the prerequisites for a long term job
Before Japan turns into a caste-system, let's get away


In a system that doesn't let you start over,
the value of work experience over eagerness and motivation
Even though everyone can learn... mmmm
What those above us decide is for their own sakes
They need to have the wits to protect only themselves
Whilst we can't have that way, and work


I live my one life all out, I won't have another one
I don't want to lose everything, taking off is just the beginning
Until I die, it's only one life, so I will get it back
If I don't have anything, I care less
I've decided this beginning


Movin on again & movin on again & movin on to live a good life
Movin on again & movin on again & movin on to hate a bad end
Don't let them kill you, don't let them abuse you


"If you can't find temporary employment,
then if you can find work at a convenient store,
you should work anyway"
So say the housewives who can't see the reality
just like Marie Antoinette
With a surplus of money, today too
those same stingy people keep protecting their own pockets
The consequence is a babylon society, where you're not supposed to know
who's at the top and who's at the bottom


In a system that doesn't let you start over, 
the value of work experience over eagerness and motivation
Even though everyone can learn... mmmm
What those above us decide is for their own sakes
They need to have the wits to protect only themselves
Whilst we can't have that way, and work


I live my one life all out, I won't have another one
I don't want to lose everything, taking off is just the beginning
Until I die, it's only one life, so I will get it back
If I don't have anything, I care less
I've decided this beginning


I live my one life all out, I won't have another one
I don't want to lose everything, taking off is just the beginning
Until I die, it's only one life, so I will get it back
If I don't have anything, I care less
I've decided this beginning


(We just) Movin on again & movin on again & movin on to live a good life
Movin on again & movin on again & movin on to hate a bad end
Movin on again & movin on again & movin on to live a good life
Movin on again & movin on again & movin on


*A freeter is a person who lives by just working a part-time job
