From Me To U

Babymetal / Poppy · from me to u

Let's go
I know you're scared 'cause you're running for cover
And if the demons know you're scared to death
Then they will find you where you are
Is there a virus infecting your system?
Half the cost of the netting of war
That'll make you run on fast
So we will never, never, never be apart
The evil has exploded
I'm not a soldier, I
Am a whole creature of fragile life
With this rage inside me
Kiminitodoke kiminitodoke
Maybe now we can kill the enemy
Totemo kibishī
Stand up and make your voice
Let the fire carry on
Let the fire burn from me to you
From me to you
I need a friend that'll never betray me
There's no time like where we are
I'm so bored, I don't care for the consequence
So I'll come find you where you are
It's innocent if I waste my destruction
It's in a call that I can make
And I have other end of dreams
And other things is in my way
And it goes from me to you
I've had enough from your mouth
You can shove it
But you know you don't stand a chance
With this rage inside me
Kiminitodoke kiminitodoke
Maybe now we can kill the enemy
Totemo kibishī
Stand up and make your voice
Let the fire carry on
Let the fire burn from me to you
Yami o muke-kō to tomoni tsui wa
Ri o tsugeta toki boku wa tada
Zetsubō no samayō no sa
You're doing this wrong
'Cause at the end of the promise
It's still broken young
I'm trying to wrestle you, fucking breathless
Has this dead intention just been justified?
How can the act of fear rest with your lies?
Rest with your lies
With this rage inside me
Kiminitodoke kiminitodoke
With this rage inside me (Inside of me)
Kiminitodoke kiminitodoke (kiminitodoke kiminitodoke)
Maybe now we can kill the enemy (Kill the enemy)
Totemo kibishī
Let the fire carry on
Let the fire burn from me to you
From me to you

闇を向け 光と共に終わ
りを告げた時僕はただ
絶望の彷徨うのさ

From Me To U

“From Me To U” imagines anger as a force passed from one person to another. Its narrator is frightened, fragile and still willing to fight, describing a world where demons, infection and war threaten to overwhelm the self. Yet the refrain makes the transmission of emotion the song’s central action: the fire moves from me to you. That phrase can mean encouragement, solidarity or the spread of violence, and the lyric keeps all three possibilities close. Its optimism is hard-won rather than serene.

The song’s Japanese phrases reinforce the idea of a message being carried across distance, while its English verses alternate between asking for a friend and warning an enemy. The voice is vulnerable enough to admit fear, then volatile enough to promise destruction. That contradiction suits the collaboration between BABYMETAL and Poppy, artists whose work often turns sweetness and aggression into neighboring registers. Here, the point is not to choose between them, but to hear how one can become the other under pressure.

The track was part of BABYMETAL’s *Metal Forth* era, with Poppy featured; later coverage also noted a Major Lazer remix. Kerrang! reviewed Poppy’s *Empty Hands*, though that album response should not be treated as a verdict on this collaboration. “From Me To U” makes its strongest impression as a compact exchange of energy: the speaker’s fear does not disappear, but becomes something communicable. The question is whether the fire passed onward will help someone stand, or simply keep the cycle of conflict burning.
