The Lion on the Edge of Violence
火のない地獄が
息をしている
昨日の罪は
昨日のまま
今日の言葉で
刺されていく
街はそれを
記憶と呼び
何もなかった
顔で笑う
守られながら
歯を立てて
正しさに
名を与える
The Worm Within the Lion
王冠を語る
光の真ん中で
影は軽くなる
救った数だけ
胸が痛む
それでも人は
前を向く
ただ在るだけで
ただ生きるだけで
巡る季節に
雪は降る
理由もなく
責められて
それでも朝は
やって来る
心を閉じて
歩くことも
強さと
呼べるだろうか
The Worm Within the Lion
祈りを語る
作り笑いの
その奥で
言葉にならぬ
沈黙が
戦士の背を
研いでいく
地獄が下なら
上でもある
耐えるも
拒むも
今 選べる
The Worm Within the Lion
名を持たぬ声
戻らぬ時を
抱きしめて
泣きながら
笑いながら
それでも
共に在る
The Lion on the Edge of Violence
火は消えて
それでも
朝は来る

"Sakki Tatsu Shishi (The Lion on the Edge of Violence)"
is a musical work rooted in the Dictionary Journey based on the
seventh edition of Kōjien, drawing from the entries spanning
"rising hostility" to "lion."
From these words emerge reflections on justice, silence, anger,
and the reason human beings continue to face forward
quietly translated into sound.
This piece neither judges nor provokes,
nor does it rush toward conclusions.
It lets emotions breathe as they are
within a hell that has both heights and depths.
Artist Profile
kneeking Records
Kneeking Records is an independent music label that transforms 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, he has been reading Japanese dictionaries page by page writing, reflecting, and sharing words every single day. In 2025, those accumulated words and rhythms began to take musical form. The Dictionary Journey continues to this day, growing quietly and steadily, with each new word adding another layer to its living archive. Kneeking Records moves freely across genres Reggae, J-Pop, R&B, Soul, House, Gospel, Funk, Ska, and at times even Punk Rock always in pursuit of sounds that feel good to the ear. Through the rhythm of language and the intersection of calligraphy and voice, the label delivers music shaped by a distinctly personal sensibility. Before words become meaning, they already have sound. Before sound is explained, it reaches the heart. Trusting that moment, Kneeking Records keeps turning pages and keeps letting the music speak.
