Lyric

The Baton of Life

Shiroharu

僕らはバトンを繋いでく

命と愛を繋いでく

小さい頃いつも寝る前考えていた 僕ら死ぬんだって

おじいちゃん おばあちゃん お父さん お母さん お兄ちゃん 親友

いつまでもここにいてよ

果てしない 十歳の僕の悩み

もし変わることができたなら

僕が代わりに死ねばと思ってた

僕らはバトンを繋いでく

明日へと命を繋いでく

気がついたら白髪は増えて 皺も深くなっていた お父さん お母さん

手を合わせて心の中に ありがとうと呟いた おじいちゃん おばあちゃん

生まれたときの0歳の僕の写真

涙が出るくらい あなたは笑ってた 幸せな顔をしていたんだ

僕からバトンを繋いでた

逆方向から繋げてた

そのバトンの意味を知るとき

生まれてきてよかったと思った

僕らはバトンを繋いでく

命と愛を繋いでく

そのバトンを渡すとき

伝えたい 生まれてよかった

ラララ

    Along the Tracks I Walked

    Shiroharu

After turning down the opportunity to make his major label debut, Mitsuru stepped away from music for nearly thirteen years.

During that time, he worked as an occupational therapist in hospitals and hospice care, supporting people through deeply personal chapters of their lives. Now, having returned to music, he has captured the path he has traveled in a single album.

From songs written in his youth to works created after resuming his musical journey, each track has been newly recorded with the voice and perspective he carries today.

The years spent pursuing a dream. The time spent standing still. Farewells to those he held dear. And the courage to begin walking again.

This is not an album created simply to look back on the past. It embraces every step of the journey and carries it forward into the future.

Artist Profile

  • Shiroharu

    Shiroharu is an IP artist unit formed by Mitsuru and Hikari. Centered on music and storytelling, Shiroharu transforms the stories of individuals, organizations, and businesses into artistic expressions through music, literature, and multimedia projects. The duo was formed on August 31, 2024, through the audio platform stand.fm. Within just one month of launching their activities, they reached No.1 on the platform's Music Ranking, gaining attention for their unique fusion of music and literary expression. Their creative philosophy is rooted in two themes: standing beside those who are suffering, and encouraging those who dare to pursue their dreams. Through songs, essays, stories, and other creative works, they seek to inspire hope, courage, and human connection. Mitsuru spent many years working in hospice care, accompanying countless individuals through the final stages of life. Drawing from these experiences, he creates stories and lyrics that explore life, loss, and hope. After a career in healthcare and welfare services, he chose an independent path dedicated to artistic expression through music and words. Hikari is a singer-songwriter and screenwriter whose vocals bring depth and emotion to Shiroharu's works. Her voice combines clarity and strength, breathing life into the stories they create. Prior to forming Shiroharu, both Mitsuru and Hikari had already established careers in music and literature. Their achievements include the PHP Award, the Bungei Shicho Essay Award, the Ozaki Hosai Award, and a Bronze Award in the Music Video & Vocalist category at the Houston International Film Festival. Together, they have created more than 100 original songs and have collaborated with producers from major Japanese record labels, as well as musicians who support nationally recognized artists and idol groups. Since 2025, Shiroharu has developed its own creative branding methodology, Sound Story Branding, which transforms personal and corporate narratives into music, films, written works, and other forms of artistic expression designed to create long-term value. On January 7, 2026, Mitsuru and Hikari founded HalScene Inc. Today, Shiroharu serves as the creative and philosophical core of the company, continuing to explore new possibilities at the intersection of music, storytelling, and human experience.
