I had an absolute BLAST with covering this song. From recording to making this video, I really tried my best to step up and deliver after receiving so much support from you all. Not only was I honored by Velo S to sing to another one of his amazing instrumental covers but I was able to have Kuroノwork his mixing magic on my vocals. A huge thank you to you both if you're reading this!
Beastars has earned a special place in my heart and I've re-read the manga twice already because the plot and characters were superbly written. If you haven't already read or watched it, I suggest that you do!

★LYRICS:
Ah, let's cheer today to living in this wonderful world
And to all the laughter that I'm hearing out in the streets
But I'm just here pretending that I can't even see it with my eyes
'Cause that's what I felt like.
A smell that's good enough to make my head go spinning
Round and round, the scent I smell is wafting inside my nose
And waking up my instinct and asking whose turn is it today?
And I'm here wondering just what can be done in this world?
I'm wondering just what can I do in this world
So I can try my best for these pitch-black eyes
So they won't fill with tears, so you won't ever cry.
Again and again, I'm wishing for the future
As many times I want, and I'll devour it
Inside a world full of mistakes because I want you to keep on laughing on.
No, no one will, will hurt anymore, I want to, I want to become stronger still
So no matter what, I can just finally be me.
I'm glad today's still safe inside this wonderful world
Even though some evil talk's revolving through the streets.
I looked away, looked away, telling myself I can't see it
This is not a case of sanity
Marching on so seriously and proper,
Where sounds of all our footsteps are resounding, step by step
And never fade, never fade, permanently like a taste we could
Bring on into the underworld.
Keeping clean and proper for the rest of my life.
To keep on living out my life and not make anyone cry.
To keep on living out my life being righteous and kind.
Am I to never make mistakes so long as I'm still alive?
Is it alright to live while everything's the way that it is?
Is it alright to keep on lying and deceive just to live?
What am I supposed to be while everything's the way it is?
Who am I supposed to be? Who am I really?
Oh, please, won't you tell me?
Oh, please, won't you tell me?
Once again, I live in a world without the answers
But there's still hope, although it may be clumsy as it is,
I'll always want to be with you because I want to keep laughing too
Ah, my heart is just pounding inside, shaking me, making me feel its desperate screams.
Now it's time I finally start to move.
Ah, I've always been so weak inside, I know it
It eats me up but I'll learn to devour it
Inside a world full of mistakes because I want you to keep on laughing on.
No, no one will, will cry anymore, I want to, I want to become stronger still
So no matter what, I can just finally be me.
And to protect you, for your sake, I'll do all I can
To run on, to run on, to keep running on
So that I can transcend past myself and beyond.
