Original Lyrics
Boku wa motto Pioneer
Darenimo ienai
Ookina yume ga arimasu
Boku wa motto Pioneer
"Ase wo nagase!" tono
Gekirei okaeshi shimasu
Afureru shitsuren no namidamo
Umi ni derya sekoi shiomizu
Omoi nayami mo shinpai mo
Uchuu dew karuisa
Tokei no hari wa susundemo
Jinsei wa nigete ikanai
Waki me mo furazoaruitemo
Taiyou nya mada tooisa
Ikiteru uchi ga
Yuuki no tsukai doki
Boku wa motto Pioneer
Daremo kizukanai
Nazo mo akashite misemasu
Boku wa motto PIONEER
Daremo kizukanai
Nazo mo akashite misemasu
Boku wo donto shinjite
Beddo shitani no ushiro
Doko ni demo yume wa kakuseru
Wakatte kurenai hito niwa
Yasashiku uso tsukou
Ikiteru uchi ga
Inochi no tsukai doki
Boku wa motto Pioneer
"Nintai" "doryoku"wa
Kanji de chanto kake masu
Boku wa motto Pioneer
Aku ni majiwaredo
Kokoro nya hagane no baria
Boku ni donto makasete
Boku wa motto Pioneer
"Ase wo nagase!" tono
Gekirei okaeshi shimasu
Boku no houga maji desu
English Lyrics
Did you know I am a Pioneer
I'm out on a secret mission
I travel the galaxy and far beyond
Can't you see that I am a Pioneer
Unlocking the greatest myst'ries
My key is a fearless heart
so pure and strong
People laugh when you are a pioneer
Not walking the straight and narrow
They tell you the way things are
They swear you're wrong
You can't be a hero
Hiding underneath your bed
Got to live the life
You create inside your head
So I opened the window
Caught the wind one night
Now I shall sail with the birds in their flight
If you're tired of everything
Come and hitch a ride with me
You'll cry out with joy
When you realize you're free
It's a trip like no other
For your heart and mind
Leaving all but the future far behind
Some will say you're safer here
Never mind them -- be a Pioneer!
Can't you see that you are a Pioneer
Not one of the endless talkers
Who tell you the same old rules you've heard before
I can tell that you are a Pioneer
You want to be facing danger
Not happy to hide your big dreams anymore
You are a Pioneer, the same as me
You can't be a hero
Hiding underneath your bed
So we'll live the life
We've created in our heads
We'll wake ev'ry morning
In a whole new place
On a road reaching out into space
Some will say we're safer here
Never mind them -- we are Pioneers!
Hand in hand we'll journey as Pioneers
Unlocking the greatest mysteries
Don't listen to anyone
Who says we're wrong
They can't stop you when you're a Pioneer
For truth is your greatest weapon
Out there in the cosmos
Where we both belong
A place for Pioneers
Like you and me
Through the ages we will be Pioneers
We'll go out on secret missions
We'll travel the galaxy and far beyond
It's our destiny to be Pioneers
We'll always be moving forward
Our courage is what we will be counting on
We will be Pioneers forevermore
