Lyric

Identity

HAIIRO DE ROSSI

意識的に離れているつもりでいたが

日本語ラップに近付きすぎた

俺のリリックは行動の説明

人と関わる時もし裏切られた時に

愛情や熱量が憎しみや怒りに変わる関係は持たない

一方通行も厭わない

俺は俺をじゃなく俺の好きな人と一緒にいる

お前がラッパーならば奇人であれ

お前がライターならば詩人であれ

Beatsにペンを走らせる第六感

興味ない下位互換

突破するオフサイドライン

このラップいやHip Hopは真にタイトだ

国内と外そこに違いはない

この複雑な言語は嫌いじゃない

口にしない努力

だがしかと見る可能性

止めるな思考

やめるなよ挑戦

口にしない努力

だがしかと見る可能性

止めるな思考やめるなよ挑戦

俺のリリックは行動の説明に過ぎない

極論普段の俺を見るのが一番早い

韻よりも意思の方が相当堅い

ミュージックから学んだホンモンの愛

俺のリリックは行動の説明

日本の事どう思ってる?

自分に問いかける

どっちでもないと言いたいが今はそこを追いかける

正確には国は好きだが政府は嫌い

友達は好きだが社会は

だがもっと不思議な感覚があるんだ

日の丸を見るとドキッとするんだ

あれはなんと言っていいか血の一滴の様な

痛みというか確かに刺激する痛覚

だから国歌斉唱もしたことが無い

邪魔する気はないし脱帽も起立もする

ただ魂が奮い立つ誇りみたいなのは正直分からない

俺のアイデンティティは国籍に帰属しない

それはどちらかというとコンプレックスでもある

災害があれば速やかに動きたいが

日本人としてというよりは地球人として

俺のリリックは行動の説明に過ぎない

極論普段の俺を見るのが一番早い

韻よりも意思の方が相当堅い

ミュージックから学んだホンモンの愛

俺のリリックは行動の説明

リリックや作品と本人の違いは

夢や希望にもなるしカルマにもなる

多くのリスナーは表しか見ないが

自分には刺さるはずだ深くその違いが

ハイブランドで身を固めても心は生身

その中身さらす言葉はハサミ

みな恐れる身から出るサビ

それに負けたら出ない口から歌詞

俺のリリックは行動の説明に過ぎない

極論普段の俺を見るのが一番早い

韻よりも意思の方が相当堅い

ミュージックから学んだホンモンの愛

    Outro.-One More Voice

    HAIIRO DE ROSSI

HAIIRO DE ROSSI releases his new album Identity -
A journey from self-reflection to social awareness, and finally, to a universal human voice. Eleven tracks where philosophy and emotion intersect.

As the title suggests, Identity explores the shifting sense of self - from introspection to collective consciousness.
Featuring producers Pigeondust, HIMURO Yoshiteru, Manakurv, and DJ MOTORA, the album maintains a cohesive aesthetic despite its diverse sonic palette.

Lyrically, HAIIRO DE ROSSI addresses the tension between nationality and individuality ("Identity"), political structures and personal conviction ("Take It Back"), and the moral outcry against violence in Gaza ("Don't Kill").
The interlude "Red.C feat. Hare Konishi" pays homage to Red Chair, while "Ethics and Beyond" with Hikaru Tanaka becomes a dialogue on the ethics of existence itself.

Toward the end, "Fifteen Springs" reflects on the lingering pain fifteen years after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, and "Outro. - One More Voice" offers a prayer to Chester Bennington - a quiet but powerful continuation of his light.

In HAIIRO DE ROSSI's own words, "My lyrics are just explanations of my actions."
Identity is more than an album - it's a living document of resistance, empathy, and survival through sound.

The physical edition will be released on March 11, 2026.
