時々考えるんだ
私って何者?
できることなんってあるの?
わたし, 期待外れなのかな? (きたいはずれ)
普通じゃないのかな?
このままでいいのかな?
現代の在日問題を考察する =(げんだいのざいにちもんだいをこうさつ
する)
これカワイイっと思ってんの？うける
彼女はアメリカ人?日本人?
ぜんぶ無視できできたらいいのに (むし)
わたし浮いてる?
もっと馴染んだほうがいいのかな? (馴染む = なじむ)
ここにいちゃだめなの?
みんな好かれなきゃ
我慢しなきゃ (がまん)
気にしないふり,しなきゃ
今までずっとそうだった
それが当たり前だって, 思ってた
でもそんなことないかもね
あり得ないって
いつか誰もが ありのままに生きられる 世界になるって
でも, そんなの待ってられない
動かしつづける. 自分を. 未来を. (みらい)
Sometimes I wonder
Who am I / What kind of person am I?
Can I do anything?
Am I a disappointment?
Am I not normal? / unusual?
Is it OK to be like this / to be me?
The current foreign resident problem will be investigated/studied
Are you American or Japanese?
Do you think this is cute? That’s funny. (Haha!)
I wish I could ignore it all.
Am I out of place? = Do I not belong here?
Should I try to blend in more? (= fit in more)
Should I not be here?
I must get people to like me = I must make people like me
I have to stand it / endure
I have to pretend not to care
It's always been like that until now
I thought that was natural / the way it's supposed to be
But maybe that's not true / that's not the case / that's not right
It's impossible
Someday everyone will
I can live as I am
become the world
= Someday the world will become a place everyone can be themselves
but I can't wait for that
Keep moving. To be yourself. To the future
How do you think people reacted to the commercial?
このCMに対して「いいCMだった」、「朝から泣かすなよ」、「次はナイキにするか」と評価する声が挙がる一方で、「不愉快」、「日本人の多くが差別をしてるかのような印象操作」、「NIKEは２度と買いません」と批判する声も挙がっています。

Do you think BULLYING is a growing problem in Japanese schools?
What can schools or parents do to reduce bullying?
