子供の頃 21世紀って
凄い未来だった
あの万博で色んな未来が
展示されていた
そんな未来が来るのだと
ずっと思っていた
眩いくらい輝かしい
未来になるんだって
My heart was filled with anticipation
(期待に胸膨らませていた)
子供の頃 見た映画でも
未来は凄かった
何でも自動だし街中が
3Dで溢れてた
そんな未来が来るのだと
ずっと思っていた
眩いくらい輝かしい
未来になるんだって
My heart was filled with anticipation
それがどうだろう
もう21世紀で
かなり時間が経つというのに
夢に見ていた世界とは違う
まだ車は宙を飛んでいない
料理が自動で出来て来ない
ロボットが街を歩いていない
月に旅行も行けてない
What kind of future did you imagine?
(どんな未来を想像していた？)
少なくとも俺のとは違うんだ
人工知能ばかりが
成長している今
自分が想像していた
ものとは少しズレている
このままAIばかり
進化して良いのだろうか
あのドラマで見たように
近いうちに人間が
追い抜かれ、除外され
迫害される未来が来る
いや、もう来ているのかも
Is it okay? What about our future?
(大丈夫なのか？私たちの未来は？)
人が必要なくなる未来
そんなのじゃなかったよ
もっと皆んなが
笑顔になれる
助けになる
幸せになれる
そんな未来が来るのだと
ずっと思っていた
眩いくらい輝かしい
未来になるんだって
My heart was filled with anticipation
それがどうだろう
もう21世紀で
かなり時間が経つというのに
夢に見ていた世界とは違う
まだ車は宙を飛んでいない
料理が自動で出来て来ない
ロボットが街を歩いていない
月に旅行も行けてない
What kind of future did you imagine?
少なくとも俺のとは違うんだ
まだ車が自動で連れてかない
リニアモーターカーに乗れてない
温暖化も解決されていない
世界が一つになっていない
まだまだ病気に勝てていない
核エネルギーを捨てていない
戦争も無くなっていない
この地球(ほし)を解明出来ていない
What kind of future did you imagine?
少なくとも俺のとは違うんだ
思っていた未来と違う
This isn't the future I once dreamed of
(かつて夢見た未来じゃない)
But I won't giue up, I believe that my ideal future will come
(でも諦めないで理想の未来が来ると信じてる)
I believe in a good future
(良い未来を信じてる)

Not the future imagined
Chao
When I was a child, I often saw TV and read books about the 21st century, saying, "This is the future we're seeing!"
But now that the 21st century has actually arrived, 25 years have passed, and that future hasn't come at all.
I wonder if the future I imagined will actually come true...
Artist Profile
Chao
I used to play bass in a band, and for a while I was also the vocalist. We mainly performed original rock and punk songs. After the band broke up, I stopped making music for a long time. At the beginning of 2025, I encountered AI music generation while creating a theme song for an event, and that led me to start writing lyrics again. "I still prefer songs and music created by people over those generated by AI. I don't think that will ever change. However, starting a music career requires instruments, equipment, and technical knowledge, which always felt like a huge hurdle for me. With the arrival of generative AI, many of those barriers have been lowered. Of course, new challenges have come with it as well... but even so, I'm excited about the possibilities that this technology offers. That said, if I leave everything to AI, I don't feel any personal attachment to the songs, so I write all the lyrics myself." "As for songwriting, when I'm writing lyrics, I already see the song's imagery and hear the music in my head. That's why, once I finish writing the lyrics, I first create the jacket artwork based on that vision. After that, I use AI to generate the music that had been floating in my mind during the writing process, recreating it over and over again until it matches my image as closely as possible. Then, I fine-tune the details of the arrangement until I'm satisfied, and only then do I release the song." "Since the vocals are not human, sometimes the words come out in a strange or awkward way, and I find myself going, 'Huh? What did it just say?' But honestly, I think that's part of AI's current charm. I'm sure one day it will become flawless... but in a way, I think that might feel a little lonely."
