Not For You
Electronic Dance, Raw Live Chaos, captured as a continuous outdoor DJ set with a mic-fed PA tone that bleeds into the mix, crowd noise loud and imperfect with cheers, chants, claps, and call-and-response shaping timing and energy, not polished, slightly unstable by design, opening with breakbeat house and big beat drive, dusty loops, punchy kicks, and a late-90s UK hard house edge with rolling bass pressure, transitions feel manual and human, midsection loosens into swung breakbeat house groove with hypnotic repetition and elastic rhythm while tension stays high, final passage merges big beat impact, electro rock grit, and breakbeat flow into one dense, controlled but rough-edged performance where timing drifts slightly and texture remains tactile and alive

Lyrics
Pushing others’ expectations into the distance, even meaning and empathy peel away into echo. Only a directionless vibration remains, faintly stitching together the unraveling outline of the self.

[Verse 1]
カタチだけ整えた音が街に広がる
名前だけ先に行く
置いてけぼりのまま
拍手の奥のほうで違う音が鳴ってた
気づかないふりをして
耳を閉じてただけ
[Pre Chorus]
「わかるでしょ？」の顔が
やけにウザいんだ
[Chorus]
Not For You
これは君のためじゃない
きれいごとでもない
届くかどうかなんて最初からいらない
Not For You
それでも鳴るならビートを刻め
歪んだままでいい そのまま響け
[Verse 2]
似合わない光も
着てれば馴染んでく
剥がしたあとの熱がまだ残っている
削れば軽くなる そう思っていたけど
消えずに残るものがやけにうるさい
[Pre Chorus]
あの叫びみたいに
理由なんていらない
[Chorus]
Not For You
これは君のためじゃない
優しさでもない
「好きなんだろ？」の視線
ここにはいらない
Not For You
それでも鳴るならビートを刻め
歪んだままでいい そのまま響け
[Bridge]
誰かの中でまだ勝手に響くなら
消せない過去ごとここで壊れろ
[Chorus]
Not For You
それでもいいと思えた
やっとそう思えた
届いてしまった音も否定はしない
Not For You
これは君のためじゃない
それでも構わない
未完成のままでいい このまま響け
[Outro]

[Verse 1]
Polished sounds spill out across the city streets
Your name runs ahead of you
Leaving you behind
Somewhere past the applause, a different tone was ringing
I just pretended not to notice
Shut my ears and let it fade
[Pre Chorus]
That “you get it, right?” look on your face
Just gets under my skin
[Chorus]
Not For You
This was never meant for you
Not some pretty lie
Never cared if it would reach you anyway
Not For You
But if it’s gonna sound, let the beat hit hard
Stay distorted, let it ring just as you are
[Verse 2]
Even borrowed light starts to feel like it fits
If you wear it long enough
But the heat still lingers when you peel it off
Thought I’d feel lighter if I carved it all away
But what refuses to fade
Won’t stop making noise
[Pre Chorus]
Like that scream I couldn’t hold
It never needed a reason
[Chorus]
Not For You
This was never meant for you
Not some kind of grace
Don’t need that “you love it, right?” in your eyes
Not For You
But if it’s gonna sound, let the beat hit hard
Stay distorted, let it ring just as you are
[Bridge]
If it’s still echoing somewhere inside someone
Then let it all break here — the past I can’t erase
[Chorus]
Not For You
And somehow I’m okay with that now
Finally okay with that
Even the sounds that reached you—I won’t deny them
Not For You
This was never meant for you
And I don’t mind anymore
Unfinished is fine—just let it ring like this
[Outro]
Not For You
Not For You
