Dream
When we talk about a dream
We can feel we are alive
The world tries to steer you with love or with fear
But me? I’m the one holding the reins now
Own your truth. Embrace the unseen. Feed your life
I wanna pray for a tempting night
Not letting darkness pull me down
I always chase down inner light
Built on what I gained from real life
When the cold night freeze, out my hands
All I crave is sinking into bed
Lonely hearts can break themselves
Cutting wounds too quiet to speak out
On the days dark thoughts press me down
Just fall once to breathe
Cry it out under the shower’s stream
Where tears fade in the shine
I wanna pray for a tempting night
Not letting darkness pull me down
I always chase down inner light
Built on what I gained from real life
I move with what my heart ignites
Never slowing down, keep drive
I always search for what feels right
Does buying me make you feel right?
Even when I’m used by someone’s game
Or trapped in blame
I don’t wanna run, I don’t wanna hide, I don’t wanna look away
I hold the truth with my rein
When your mommy tried to steer your way
You pushed back
So tell me, where did you go?
If my steps are slow and scarred, I’ll play my life
In order for us to live, we must embrace our feelings
The senses unseen by our eyes will bring us into lives
I wanna pray for a tempting night
Not letting darkness pull me down
I always chase down inner light
Built on what I gained from real life
I move with what my heart ignites
Never slowing down, keep drive
I always search for what feels right
Does buying me make you feel right?

Listen to Hum by ITADAKI
Streaming / Download
In a world where smartphones and AI grant our wishes like magic, we still find ourselves bound by the messy reality of being human.
We get hungry. We oversleep. We stumble in our eagerness, chase after dreams with regret, and feel the heavy ache of waiting for someone we love. These beautifully imperfect, uniquely human experiences are the heartbeat of our album, picnic.
The album opens with "Hum," an introspective neo-soul track that voices a firm resolve for life, followed by "P.U.G.," a 2-step groove that dances away the blunders of everyday life. It then moves through the quiet-yet-intense drama of "Seasoning," and culminates in an explosive love for music in "Music Keeps Us Alive."
Let's go on a picnic! We've packed your bento.
