This song is from the Tenchi Muyo! series. I've been on Tenchi sites and on all of them everyone keeps on ranting and raving about how good this song is. So I downloaded it off of Napster and fell in love with the song! It seems like it's gonna be a boring ballad at first, but guitars kick in all of a sudden and really draw you in to the song. Sharyn Scott is a great singer too, which really makes the song good. Since I've used the idea of Pioneers in the site introduction, I've decided to make "I'm a Pioneer" the anthem for the Rinbu Academy. Sadly, the CDs that include the English Tenchi Muyo! songs are out of print and you can't find them anywhere unless it's a bootleg copy. :(
-Tenchi
Did you know I am a pioneer
I'm out on a secret mission
I travel the galaxy and far beyond
Can't you see that I am I pioneer
Unlocking the greatest mysteries
My key is a fearless heart
So pure and strong
People laugh when you are a pioneer
Not walking the straight and narrow
They tell you the things are
They swear you're wrong
You can't be a hero
Hiding underneath your bed
Got to live the life
You create inside your head
So I opened the window
Caught the wind one night
Now I sail with the birds in their flight
If you're tired of everything
Come hitch a ride with me
You'll cry out with joy
When you realize you're free
It's a trip like no other
For your heart and mind
Leaving all but the future for behind
Some will say you're safer here
Never mind them - be a pioneer!
Can't you see that you are a pioneer
Not one of the endless talkers
Who tell you the same old rules you're heard before
I can tell that you are a pioneer
You want to be facing danger
Not happy to hide your big dreams anymore
You are a pioneer, the same as me
(Guitar Solo)
You can't be a hero
Hiding underneath your bed
So we'll live the life
We've created in our heads
We'll wake up every morning
In a whole new place
On a road reaching out into space
Some will say we're safer here
Never mind them - we are pioneers
Hand in hand we'll journey as pioneers
Unlocking the greatest mysteries
Don't listen to anyone
Who says we're wrong
They can't stop you when you're a pioneer
For truth is your greatest weapon
Out there in the cosmos
Where we both belong
A place for pioneers
Like you and me
Through the ages we well be pioneers
We'll go out on secret missions
We'll travel the galaxy and far beyond
It's our destiny to be pioneers
We'll always be moving forward
Our courage is what we will be counting on
We will be pioneers forevermore
