Background and composition


"Kokoro no Chikara" was released two months following “Lotus (Umareshi Hana)”, Kudo's comeback single to Pony Canyon. It is a personal favorite of Kudo's; she regards the song as a blessing and lists the song's recording as a key moment in her rediscovery of her love for music. The song, described as an uplifting strings-heavy R&B-influenced midtempo track, was written by Takahiro Maeda and composed, arranged and produced by H-Wonder.[4] It was composed in the key of F major and Kudo's vocals span from G♯3 to C5. Lyrically, the song is about finding happiness from within. Kudo's vocal performance was praised for being powerful and effortless.[4]


Chart performance


"Kokoro no Chikara" debuted at number 60 on the Oricon Singles Chart, selling 3,000 copies in its first week, and charted for two weeks.[5][6]
