Lyrics
Romaji=  • •  •  • 

Kanji= 考えたことなかった　外の景色の姿を あたしたちだけの　世界しか知らなくて 触れた大きさから　ちっぽけさは目立つけれど それはそれだ！　サイズで図るな　己の人生！

いつもの夕焼け空に 新しく彩る　紺碧のカーテン鮮やかで 後悔はしないように　向き合う　熱いこの気持ち 君という名の　空の色が　教えてくれた

Hey, “Y.O.L.O！！！！！” 壁の高さなんて関係ないよ 乗り越えたジジツが大事さ この場所に5人でいること かけがえないことで Hey, “Y.O.L.O！！！！！” 自分を貫き　らしく光れ！ 輝きは何よりも綺麗… 絶対　大丈夫だよ　やれるさ Yes, sir！ 絶対　大丈夫だよ　やれるさ Yes, sir！ 美しき夜空の　一番星　探しにゆこう

傍にいられる方法を探して　選んだだけで 居場所さえあれば　周りは気にしないの 押さえつけられても　いい音は探せないから それも必要！　とんがってもいいんだ　波乱万丈で

マイナスな存在だって 見方ひとつ変えて　プラスヘと導け　胸の鼓動 少しずつだけれど　確実に進む歩幅 広がる夢　開け放てば　飛び出す答え

Hey, “Y.O.L.O！！！！！” 雨の日も　晴れも　曇りだって どんな空模様でもいいじゃん 感じることが　大切なの 食わず嫌いせずに Hey, “Y.O.L.O！！！！！” 見失う時も　たまにはある それでもいいよ　力を抜いて きっと　未来は明るいよ Yes, sir！ きっと　未来は明るいよ Yes, sir！ 美しき夜空は　一番星　照らしてくれる

(さあ行くよ！GO！！JUMP！！！)

Hey, “Y.O.L.O！！！！！” 壁の高さなんて関係ないよ 乗り越えたジジツが大事さ この場所に5人でいること かけがえないことで Hey, “Y.O.L.O！！！！！” ジブンを貫き　らしく光れ！ 輝きは何よりも綺麗… 絶対　大丈夫だよ　やれるさ Yes, sir！ 絶対　大丈夫だよ　やれるさ Yes, sir！ 美しき夜空の　一番星　探しにゆこう

English= We had never thought about what the scenery looked like outside We were only aware of our very own world It stood out how small it was after we experienced something larger That's it, that's right! You can't measure the worth of your life by its size!

The afterglow from always Is colored anew by a bright azure curtain Let's face these burning feelings so we won't regret it You were the one who taught me the name of the sky

Hey, "Y.O.L.O!!!!!" However high the wall was, What matters is that we climbed it These five people standing here Are irreplaceable Hey, "Y.O.L.O!!!!!" Shine like the radiance that seemed to pierce through us! That brightness is more beautiful than anything... It's absolutely fine, we can do this! Yes sir! It's absolutely fine, we can do this! Yes sir! Let's go search for the first star in this beautiful night sky

I chose to find a way to stay by your side As long as there's a place where I belong, I don't care what may surround it I cannot find a good sound if I'm holding back my feelings That, too, is essential! It's all right to be upset with all the ups and downs in life

Because I had a negative outlook By changing my point of view, my heartbeat can be led to a positive one Although it's only little by little, this pace will definitely lead me forward By leaving the way open, our growing dreams will give us the answer

Hey, "Y.O.L.O!!!!!" Whether it's rainy, clear, or cloudy, Whatever the sky may look like, it's all right It's more important to experience things Than to believe you dislike them without having tried them Hey, "Y.O.L.O!!!!!" Sometimes we lose sight of things But it's fine, our strength will let us pull through Surely, the future is bright! Yes, sir! Surely, the future is bright! Yes, sir! The beautiful night sky shines the first star on us

(Let's go! GO!! JUMP!!!)

Hey, "Y.O.L.O!!!!!" However high the wall was, What matters is that we climbed it These five people standing here Are irreplaceable Hey, "Y.O.L.O!!!!!" Shine like the radiance that seemed to pierce through us! That brightness is more beautiful than anything... It's absolutely fine, we can do this! Yes sir! It's absolutely fine, we can do this! Yes sir! Let's go search for the first star in this beautiful night sky
