GRIT Lyrics

[Intro: SHUNTO]
Got the GRIT
Got the GRIT

[Verse 1: SOTA]
Throwing back to the days
未だ通過点
Money and fame
I got だが価値などねぇ
Underrated 大歓迎 腹なら決まってる
こちら芸能でも現場叩き上げ

[Verse 2: RYOKI]
下の下の下の有様の下馬評
Covid も届かない山の宿
富士山から眺めた海の向こう
今Dome 超え周ってる世界の首都

[Pre-Chorus: JUNON, LEO]
何度もピンチは潜り抜けた
何度もチャンスは手をすり抜けた

今掴むべき物はなんだ?
I want that, I want that, I want

[Chorus: RYUHEI, MANATO]
Everything you see
前人未到を手中に
But I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)
I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)
I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)

紅く血で染まったグローリー
But I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)
I don’t know but I…
(Oh!)
I got the GRIT

[Post-Chorus: SHUNTO]
Got the GRIT, got the GRIT
I got the GRIT
Got the GRIT, got the GRIT
GRIT (I got the GRIT)

[Verse 3: LEO, MANATO]
Amazing わかった風の評論家気取りに溜め息
地に足はつけない とっくに乗り込んだ Spaceship

Black Hole も逆に飲み込む様なイメージ
We’re not gonna stop, ain’t nobody touch us now

[Bridge: SOTA]
正統派、メジャー、多数派
成功者 わからすんだ
流派B の BOYSがまたヒット
俺等ティンバー履いたヒーロー You know?

[Pre-Chorus: RYOKI, SHUNTO]
何度もピンチは潜り抜けた
何度もチャンスは手をすり抜けた

今掴むべき物はなんだ?
I want that, I want that, I want

[Chorus: RYUHEI, JUNON]
Everything you see
前人未到を手中に
But I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)
I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)
I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)

紅く血で染まったグローリー
But I don’t know if it’s…
(Oh!)
I don’t know but I…
(Oh!)
I got the GRIT

[Post-Chorus: SHUNTO]
Got the GRIT, got the GRIT
GRIT (I got the GRIT)
Got the GRIT, got the GRIT
GRIT (I got the GRIT)

[Outro: SHUNTO]
GRIT, got the GRIT
GRIT (I got the GRIT)
Got the GRIT, got the GRIT
GRIT (I got the GRIT)

GRIT Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: SHUNTO]
The intro immediately establishes the song’s mantra: grit. With repetitive chants, SHUNTO sets the tone for what’s to come—a declaration of inner strength. It’s simple yet powerful, embodying the essence of resilience before the verses unfold the journey behind it.

[Verse 1: SOTA]
SOTA opens with a reflection on his roots, acknowledging that fame and money hold no real value compared to experience and authenticity. He embraces being underrated and highlights his rise through real-world hustle rather than fame alone. His tone is grounded and defiant, making it clear that his success is self-made.

[Verse 2: RYOKI]
RYOKI paints a stark contrast between his humble origins and current global success. Using vivid imagery—from isolation in the mountains to performing worldwide—he reinforces the scale of their transformation. His verse evokes a deep sense of pride and amazement, while also emphasizing how far they’ve come despite all odds.

[Pre-Chorus: JUNON, LEO]
JUNON and LEO deliver a moment of vulnerability, recalling the many close calls and missed opportunities they’ve faced. This section humanizes their journey, showing that perseverance isn’t just about strength but also about enduring disappointment. It sets up the urgency of the question: what is truly worth chasing?

[Chorus: RYUHEI, MANATO]
RYUHEI and MANATO elevate the emotional intensity, describing the ambition to seize uncharted territory. However, there’s an undercurrent of uncertainty—they wonder whether this success is meaningful or just a mirage. The mention of glory stained with blood evokes the price paid for triumph, adding complexity to the celebration of grit.

[Post-Chorus: SHUNTO]
SHUNTO reinforces the message with rhythmic repetition, echoing the title as a form of self-affirmation. It’s not just a catchy refrain; it becomes a psychological anchor, reminding listeners and the group themselves that resilience is their defining trait.

[Verse 3: LEO, MANATO]
LEO and MANATO call out critics who pretend to understand their path, brushing them off with confident nonchalance. They assert their trajectory is too far beyond the ordinary—already launched into a metaphorical spaceship. The imagery of consuming even a black hole flips the narrative, showing that they’re unstoppable and immune to external pressure.

[Bridge: SOTA]
SOTA delivers a dynamic statement about breaking the mold. He takes pride in being unconventional, shouting out his crew as representatives of a different style—“Ryūha B.” The reference to Timberlands adds street authenticity, reasserting their place as grounded heroes of their own making.

[Pre-Chorus: RYOKI, SHUNTO]
This repetition reinforces the emotional throughline of the song. It acts as both a callback and an escalation, showing that even after reliving their battles, the desire for something meaningful still burns bright.

[Chorus: RYUHEI, JUNON]
This iteration of the chorus continues the tug-of-war between ambition and uncertainty. RYUHEI and JUNON revisit the drive to reach unprecedented heights, but again question whether the glory is worth it. Despite the doubts, they hold onto the one constant: grit.

[Post-Chorus: SHUNTO]
SHUNTO repeats the empowering chant with added intensity, turning it into a victorious affirmation. This is less about proving something to others and more about internal validation.

[Outro: SHUNTO]
The outro closes the song with quiet strength. There’s no final flourish—just SHUNTO declaring once again, “I got the GRIT.” It leaves the listener with a lasting impression of resolve, staying true to the core message of persistence.
