Hamasaki Ayumi: Duty

Artist: Hamasaki Ayumi
Title: Duty
Words: Hamasaki Ayumi
Music: Ken Harada

That thing that everyone wants
that everyone is looking for
Myself and everyone
just assume that "it"
is somewhere out there
waiting for us
in the future
But you know
we never stop to think
it could be in the past

I wonder
just how many humans
realize this fact
I have no idea

I know I saw with my own two eyes
one whole
generation end
But I just didn't want to face the fact that
my turn was next

Just like that, try chewing
on it a little more
and if it gets through
then "it" just connects
to a memory
and lines up with the rest, and that's
what happens
if that's true then every single person
already has it in
their grasp without even knowing it
I want you to notice

I know I saw with my own two eyes
one whole
generation end
And to tell the truth
I even knew the fact that
my turn was up next

I know that
you'll be able to find it
I believe in you
so I'm taking a chance
that you really do find it

I know I saw with my own two eyes
one whole
generation end
But I just didn't want to face the fact that
my turn was next

Translated By: Brian Dunn. I try to write the English so it flows along with the Japanese lyrics as much as possible, breaking the lines with the flow of the singing.
