"Time To Make History" is the enemy advantage battle theme in Persona 4 Golden. It is the second track of the Persona 4 The Golden Original Soundtrack, composed and arranged by Shoji Meguro with lyrics by Benjamin Franklin[1][2]; performed by Shihoko Hirata. The final verse of the song serves as an Instant Kill song in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax.

The song is also featured in Persona 5 / Royal when using the Yasogami High uniform in battle.

Alternate Versions[]

The game Persona 4: Dancing All Night features the Full Size Version as well as Akira Yamaoka's Remix of the song, which act as themes for Yu Narukami and Kanji Tatsumi respectively. Both tracks are found on the Original Soundtrack.

A -Special Mix- version of the song features on the Persona 4: The Golden Animation Special Arrange CD (which was an exclusive pre-order bonus for the Persona 4 The Golden Animation Vol 1. Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD at the Japanese Aniplex+ online store)[3].

Persona 4 Golden OST- Time To Make History

P4G version

It's a war out there everyday
You can't hide from it, you gotta play
By the rules, play it cool
Gotta laugh in the face of the sad disgrace
When your friends and foes look alike on the face of it

They missed their history
But they fight over place in it
Yeah, they fight over place in it

Hard-hit by the times
That's just how your life goes by
I know it's not your fault, you say
But there ain't no other way

So step on up to the plate
Meet your fate
Walkin' straight on into the lion's lair

Step on up, up to the plate
'Cause this ain't no game
It's time to make history, yeah

It's a war out there everyday
You can't hide from it, you gotta play
By the rules, play it cool
Gotta laugh in the face of the sad disgrace
When your friends and foes look alike on the face of it

They missed their history
But they fight over place in it
Yeah, they fight over place in it

Hard-hit by the times
That's just how your life goes by
I know it's not your fault, you say
But there ain't no other way

So step on up to the plate
Meet your fate
Walkin' straight on into the lion's lair

Step on up, up to the plate
'Cause this ain't no game
It's time to make history, yeah

Time to Make History (Full size)-0

It's a war out there everyday
You can't hide from it, you gotta play
By the rules, play it cool
Gotta laugh in the face of the sad disgrace
When your friends and foes look alike on the face of it

They missed their history
But they fight over place in it
Yeah, they fight over place in it

Hard-hit by the times
That's just how your life goes by
I know it's not your fault, you say
But there ain't no other way

So step on up to the plate
Meet your fate
Walkin' straight on into the lion's lair

Step on up, up to the plate
'Cause this ain't no game
It's time to make history, yeah

You sink, you fall, you break down
And you think you can't take
One more round
But something almost evil
Keeps getting you up

Something angry, something deep
Something stuck in your gut
Something telling you
You can not give up
You can not give up

So you fight the times
That's just how your hours go by
In combat, we roll and ride
Take your losses in your stride

So step on up to the plate
And if you fall
Get up, rise like a phoenix, that's your fate

Step on up, up to the plate
It's your last chance now
It's time to make history today

So step on up to the plate
Meet your fate
Walkin' straight on into the lion's lair

Step on up, up to the plate
'Cause this ain't no game
It's time to make history, yeah
