This song is a soulful punk rock anthem inspired by the concept of Shiku-Hakku-the eight inevitable sufferings of life.
We are born, we grow old, we fall ill, and we face death.
We love, we part, we ache with unfulfilled desires, and we keep searching.
But instead of denying these pains, this song carries a message:
Embrace them. Live through them. Rise with them.
With fast-paced beats and raw, heartfelt English lyrics,
this track delivers a direct scream from the heart.
It's dedicated to you-who stand back up with a smile, no matter how many times life knocks you down.
Kneeking Records is an independent music label that translates The Dictionary Journey into sound. The label was founded by Yoshihiro Sato, a calligrapher, a lifelong dictionary traveler, and a former kickboxing world champion. Since 2013, Yoshihiro has been reading dictionaries one page at a time writing, reflecting, and quietly documenting each newly discovered word. In 2025, these accumulated records began to take musical form. The Dictionary Journey is an ongoing exploration. With each passing day, new words are encountered, and their traces continue to grow steadily and without end. Kneeking Records spans a wide range of genres, including Reggae, J-Pop, R&B, Soul, House, Gospel, Funk, Ska, and at times, Punk Rock. While honoring the natural rhythm of language, the label pursues sound that is both refined and deeply listenable transforming the voice descending from calligraphy into music. That is the sound of Kneeking Records.
