Oh wow, I haven't posted here in a while... Hey everyone! This is actually a fairly old translation of mine which I've recently revised, but there were still some lines that were a bit difficult to translate, whose phrasing came out sort of awkward-ish. If anybody has any ideas, do let me know. And feedback on other parts of the translation is more than welcome as well. Thanks in advance!

English:
I don't plan on erasing the sound of my breathing,
Waiting for when it's time for me to step in like this forever.
I won't let my blood; my tears,
Not even flowing for anyone's sake, be in vain.
Directly, headlong: charge forward,
Step by step, moment by moment: leave your mark.
All daily lives have at least some dramatic events going on among them, don't they?
Tenaciously, with certainty: I'll survive.
Amidst blackened, thick darkness... A twinkling star -
Focus your eyes on it, reach your hand out to it! Yeah!!
Directly, headlong: charge forward,
Step by step, moment by moment: leave your mark.
You have a reason for which you cannot afford to lose, don't you?
Simply as you are, just like that: go!
Directly, headlong: charge forward,
Step by step, moment by moment: leave your mark.
Give rise to a storm that's here to stay,
Tenaciously, with certainty: survive!
Kanji:
こうしていつまでも息をひそめ
出番を待つつもりはない
誰のためでもなく流れていく
血も涙もムダにはしないぜ
まっすぐにまっしぐらに突き進んで
一歩ずつ一瞬ずつ刻みつけて
ドラマのない日々などないんだろ
したたかに確かに生き残るぜ
黒く深い闇の中で瞬いた星に
目をこらせ 手を伸ばせ Yeah
まっすぐにまっしぐらに突き進んで
一歩ずつ一瞬ずつ刻みつけて
負けられない理由があるんだろ
ありのままそのまま行けよ
まっすぐにまっしぐらに突き進んで
一歩ずつ一瞬ずつ刻みつけて
過ぎ去らない嵐を起こせよ
したたかに確かに生き残れ
