"To be what I am" is how the original artist of the song translated the title "boku ga boku de aru tame ni", so I also used that translation throughout the song when that phrase was used even though it is not the most natural or clear way to phrase it. * This (and its corresponding repetition toward the end) was an ambiguous line in the song that I was unable to completely resolve. To go with the theme of the song, I decided to translate "tatoe kizutsukete" as a made-up compound verb.
