"Pride" meaning

[shadow*puppet]

i really, really like the song but i just wanted to know what you guys think the meaning of "Pride" is...? some say it's about people trying hard to get famous, people trying to be a star so that they'll be notorious and adored? Others say it's about freedom... which is it? Just curious how you interpret the song

I can repost the lyrics here:

PRIDE by ayu

"The freedom you have is so dazzling"
Said a girl
"Even if I can't find the meaning of my existence?"
I answered

Supposing man is a creature
Who is always asking for things he doesn't have
Ah, what is it
That we truly want to have?

And then
The girl just struggled and struggled
And when she noticed she was filled with emptiness
She had a new understanding

We always open the window to tomorrow
By dreaming
Ah, though we know
Nothing is certain in this world

Flowers are surely waiting for us
In a place we haven't yet seen
Before we are used to being bored
And our time passes quickly

Even if it's the end of the world
Even if people say with laughter that we are trying in vain
Let's go together
Because nothing is so fearful as giving up


I know, i made a similar thread in the discussion area... But this is more about the meaning of the song...

BTW thanks to everyone who's replied in my threads

I think she´s talking about how hard humans is working everyday

[orenji_jaro]

she's talking about US... people who wanted life/living to be perfect! ^^

I think she's talking about herself. Her life and what she's grown to UNDERSTAND about life itself. "Flowers in a place"> line seems to refer to Heaven. (sorry, my thoughts are jumbled so if my answers are confusing, please forgive me!)
Umm, the main subject is: Learning what you have learned in life and use it to the fullest. Even if some people think it's weird or crazy, just follow you're heart. Nothing in this lifetime is worse than giving up and converting to what other people feel is right for you. I think Ayu has come to a point in her life where she wants to make BOLD decisions and make risky choices on things. She's ready for changing up because her mind has stepped to another level of thinking. And she is also saying in the song, that the majority of those who look up to her, look up to her because she's a STAR and not because of how she feels&thinks inside. But she also leaves a measage fore those who love her for the human inside of her; "Let's go together". Meaning, she stands with you in a mental kind of sense.

This is what I got from "Pride". It might not be right or be a very good answer but, I hope it does help us all understand what she was trying to say; someway.
