Contrary to the popular believe the song was not written by Yoko Kanno but composed, the song writer is actually Tim Jensen.
I personally find the meaning of the song that of spiritual endeavor. A person has finally has come face to face with him or her self and step up to the batting plate of life on their own two feet. This is a very hard thing to do for any human and that which most of us humans experience. That is why I think it so appealing to many people who listen to it, especially the ones who have gone or going through the same process in their lives. For such people, this song becomes more then just a song, but also a piece of art work that gives hope.
