Before it turns to words
A quiet light awakens in my chest
Each time I pray you’ll make it home
A trembling hope reaches toward tomorrow
Love begins
In the warmth of waiting hands
With just that touch
The world grows clear again
Humbly, softly
From a trembling heart
Wings begin to rise
Oh wish
Echo deep and gently
Carrying me along the winding path
Oh wish
May this single flame within my heart
Shine upon some distant corner
Still hidden in shadow
The future holds its breath
Yet still we walk with hope
And when each step begins to ache
It’s all right to lean on something steady
To move beyond
The shape you think you are
That single step alone
Guides you back to where you stand true
To pray is not weakness
To wish is not escape
A trembling heart
Can break the limits of itself
Oh wish
Please don’t fade away
Even on nights when life is shaking
Beneath the hidden starlight
Oh wish
Without becoming a voice
Gently brighten the darkness
No one else can see
Destiny walks beside
The ones who dare to move
It never descends
To those who only wait
If your heart still holds
A love you cannot speak aloud
That alone
Is proof you rise beyond yourself
Oh wish
Become the wind
Become the light
A small unwavering fire
Guarding someone’s tomorrow
Oh wish, my love
Echo softly, deeply
Far beyond the reach of night
Oh wish

Wish
kneeking Records
"Wish" unfolds quiet prayer and warm emotion
into a more delicate and universal resonance.
It traces the feeling of wishing for someone's safety,
the small light glowing deep within the chest,
and the gentle strength carried by those who choose to rise beyond themselves-
all expressed through a poised yet relaxed male vocal.
Soft piano tones blend with a subtle snap rhythm,
gently revealing the image of a single wish
expanding like light across the world.
It is a piece that conveys the warmth of prayer
beyond the boundaries of language,
expressed through the voice and nuance of English.
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.
