Gentle Little Steps (Remix)

Concept: R&B Upbeat Song

Theme: “It’s okay to fall — every stain is a medal of honor. Laugh, dance, and move on — every little step is a miracle.”

- The original already had a beautiful melody and lyrics, with a great chorus. That’s why I decided to remix it by keeping only the chorus. The storyline remains the same, but the perspective has changed: from talking to myself in the original, to speaking directly to the listener in this new version.

- This track burned through a lot of credits because no matter which genre I tried (City Pop, Jazz, Acoustic), it somehow worked. But each attempt had little gaps or rough edges, so I had to pile up the versions and keep listening back and forth. In the end, I settled on this version — the one that feels just right: not overly grand, not stretched too long, but balanced

小さなpuddle　つまずいて

転んだだけで　涙こぼれる

泥のしみさえ　大げさに

世界が全部　壊れたようで

でも don’t you cry

立ち上がれば it’s all right

その汚れは　ただのsign

歩き出せば　消えてゆくよ

Dancin', singin', gentle little steps

転んでもいい　笑えばいいさ

Every little sparkle is a miracle

跳ねる雫が　虹を描く

涙のあとにも　光があるよ

泥だらけでも　かまわない

それは your journey のあかしだい

泣くことないよ　笑えばいい

「勲章だ」って　胸を張ればいい

Don’t be afraid

泥まみれでも fine

Every step you take is proof

未来へとつながる sign

Dancin', singin', gentle little steps

泥だらけでも　それは勲章

Every little sparkle is a miracle

踏み出すたびに　明日が照らす

旅のしるしを　誇ればいい

転んだ跡に　光は射す

傷だらけでも　色は増す

君のstory, 君のglory

輝き出す　just keep walking

Dancin', singin', gentle little steps

もう泣かないで　踊り出そう

Every little sparkle is a miracle

過去も未来も　抱きしめて

君の笑顔が　宝物だよ

Dancin', singin', gentle little steps

Every little sparkle is a miracle

Dancin', singin', gentle little steps

Every little sparkle is a miracle
