This song was included on Persona 3 FES Original Soundtrack. A new version arranged by Atsushi Kitajo for Persona 3 Reload titled "P3 fes -Reload-" was created for Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aigis Original Soundtrack, and is sung by Azumi Takahashi and Lotus Juice.

According to Shoji Meguro, this song was done at the request of Katsura Hashino, and was made with the idea that it sounds like a festival.[1]

Lyrics

The lyrics were included in the Persona 3 FES Original Soundtrack booklet and the Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aegis Original Soundtrack booklet. The English translation of the first stanza is taken from the translation of "Memories of You" included in the Persona 3 Reload Soundtrack booklet from the game's Digital Deluxe Edition and physical Aigis Edition; its line formatting has been revised below to match the Japanese.

キミはね 確かに あのとき わたしの 傍ら(そば)にいた[a]
いつだって いつだって いつだって すぐ横で 笑っていた
無くしても 取り戻す キミを 
I will never leave you


if you wanna battle then I take it to the street
where theres no rules
take off the gloves ref please step down
gotta prove my skillz so get down
my lyrical dempsey roll about to smack down now
gotta shoot to kill and shoot the skill
don't you be afraid mans gotta do how it feels
six to seven to eight to nine ten
I flip the script to make it to the top ten,go


Dreamless dorm ticking clock
I walk away from the soundless room
Windless night moonlight melts
My ghostly shadow to the lukewarm gloom

Nightly dance of bleeding swords
Reminds me that I still live


every man's gotta fight the fear
I'm the first to admit it shear thoughts
provoke the new era become a big terror
but my only rival is my shadow
rewind then playback and six my own error
get low to the ground it's getting better
like i told you before double up I did more chedder
L to the J say stay laced here's my card b
royal flush and I'm the Ace

Kimi wa ne / tashika ni / ano toki / watashi no / soba ni ita
Itsudatte / itsudatte / itsudatte / sugu yoko de / waratteita
Nakushite mo / torimodosu / kimi o
/ I will never leave you


if you wanna battle then I take it to the street

I remember you were at my side in that moment
You were always (always) always there, smiling right next to me
Even if I lose you, I'll find you again, I will never leave you

Notes

  1. The official lyrics were printed as (そば)らにいた in the Persona 3 FES Original Soundtrack booklet (prescribing the pronunciation sobara ni nita), but were revised to 傍ら(そば)にいた (prescribing the pronunciation soba ni nita) in the Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aegis Original Soundtrack booklet. The original printed lyrics appear to have been in error, combining soba with 傍ら katawara.
