Every hurt you’ve felt, every lie you’ve faced
They’re all making you stronger in every way
All the pain you’ve faced just levels you up
Let’s face the world, ’cause yeah, we’re living now
Beautiful scars make us diamonds so bright
Even if it scares now, yeah we’ll see the light
So beautiful scars you gonna proud of yourself
Turn your pain into wings so you can go higher
Every doubt you’ve got, every sadness you’ve known
They’re all making you stronger, you’ve grown and grown
All the pain you’ve faced just levels you up
Let’s face the world, ’cause yeah, we’re living now
Beautiful scars make us diamonds so bright
Even if it scares now, yeah we’ll see the light
So beautiful scars you gonna proud of yourself
Turn your pain into wings so you can go higher
Beautiful scars make us diamonds so bright
Even if it scares now, yeah we’ll see the light
So beautiful scars you gonna proud of yourself
Turn your pain into wings so you can go higher

Outro - No Life Without ____
Kumika Hashimoto
As an artist who values living by her own axis, she crafted her 1st album after graduating from Waseda University and moving to New York to study at an art school while writing, composing, and designing artwork herself.
When we take time, move at our own pace, and continue working toward our goals,
the things we once couldn't do slowly become possible.
Built from the emotions experienced along her path and her quiet resistance to the world, this album speaks to what she felt compelled to express through living.
'Each achievement becomes a doorway to the next challenge.
As long as we stay connected to our inner axis, we can grow countless new branches.
And the 'ikigai' we find evolves and matures as we continue living.'
This idea became the foundation for the album cover: a branching tree formed from each track's waveform, symbolizing the way our lives grow, diverge, and continue forward.
