[English]

I’ve been in my zone

Counting up my steps

Our eyes are heavy, holding our dreams

Watch my moves

Think I might just break my back

Stuffing my bag till it’s about to burst, tying it tight

Know I gotta get that

Whoa, jet ski on my toes

Our energy’s flowing

Go-getter, my pose, one more

Whoa, one step closer to the goal

In front of the mirror, it’s always summer

Sweaty training clothes, run it up

Even if we go in circles, we keep moving forward

We believe in ourselves, R double I Z E

Beep beep, we’re the dream team

Keeping our hearts true

A hundredth time, but it’s never enough

Our vision, filled as one

Feet hitting the ground, breath catching up

The thrill around me, that’s fire

I’ve been in my

Bag bag bag bag bag bag bag

Please don’t touch my

Bag bag bag bag bag bag bag

I’ve been in my zone

Counting up my steps

Our eyes are heavy, holding our dreams

Watch my moves

Think I might just break my back

Stuffing my bag till it’s about to burst, tying it tight

Know I gotta get that

Know I gotta get that, bad

Forgetting the impossible, every day

Sweat splashing

The first stage felt heavy

Now, where to next?

One more push, dash

Together, what can’t we do?

Packing it all in, we’ll keep going till we make it

24/7, like flames, we don’t stop

Pedal to the floor, image like whoosh whoosh

It’s already started

Watch how we make it real

Sweat we’ve shed together

Worn-out shoes, everything inside

Just packing up to climb higher

Checks on that, deep in the vibe

Never giving up, RIIZE will continue to rise

Hands touching, the sound is tight

The thrill around us, that’s fire

I’ve been in my

Bag bag bag bag bag bag bag

Please don’t touch my

Bag bag bag bag bag bag bag

I’ve been in my zone

Counting up my steps

Our eyes are heavy, holding our dreams

Watch my moves

Think I might just break my back

Stuffing my bag till it’s about to burst, tying it tight

Know I gotta get that

A hot day, just for a moment

Flow and then morning comes again

I asked myself, what’s on my mind?

But do you know?

The shining light is on us

When our eyes meet

We’re already ready

Who can stop us?

We’re still wanting more

Anything you want, I can do that

Walk up to the stage, they’re like, “Who’s that?”

When you and I dream the same dream

Say it, we’re rising all the way

I’ve been in my

Bag bag bag bag bag bag bag

Please don’t touch my

Bag bag bag bag bag bag bag

I’ve been in my zone

Counting up my steps

Our eyes are heavy, holding our dreams

Watch my moves

Think I might just break my back

Stuffing my bag till it’s about to burst, tying it tight

Know I gotta get that

터질 듯이 가방 가득 채워 졸라매

Know I gotta get that

Whoa Jet ski on my toes

Go-getter my pose one more

Whoa 한 발짝 To the goal

거울 앞은 늘 Summer

젖은 내 Training clothes run it up

빙빙 돌아가도 직진

Beep beep 꿈을 꾸는 Dream team

지켜내고 있지 우리들의 진심

백번째 But it’s never enough

우리가 하나로 가득 채워 담은 Vision

발과 바닥이 맞닿아 숨이 차오르면

나를 감싸는 떨림 That’s fire

불가능은 잊은 채 매일

흐르는 땀은 Splash

부담이 됐던 First stage

이제는 Where to next

한 번 더 박차고 Dash

우리가 뭉치면 못할 게 뭔데

가득 챙겨 우린 될 때까지 해

24 마치 불꽃 멈추는 법 Forgot it

Pedal to floor image like 슉슉

시작 됐어 이미

지켜봐 How we make it real

함께 흘린 땀이지

닳은 신발까지 안에 전부

챙겨 다음으로 올라갈 뿐이지

Checks on that 매번 Deep in the vibe

포긴 안해 절대 RIIZE will continue to rise

손과 손이 맞닿아 나는 소리는 Tight

우릴 감싸는 떨림 That’s fire

I’ve been in my

Counting up my steps

두 눈빛은 Heavy 우리 꿈을 담을 때

내 움직임을 봐

Think I might just break my back

터질 듯이 가방 가득 채워 졸라매

Know I gotta get that

뜨거웠던 하루 잠시

흐르고 다시 온 아침

내게 물어봤지 What's on my mind?

But do you know?

반짝이는 빛이 우릴 비추고

서로의 눈 맞추면

이미 준비는 끝났지

누가 우릴 막지

We are still wanting more

Anything you want I can do that

Walk up to the stage they like “Who that?”

너와 나 같은 꿈을 꿀 때

Say it we are rising all the way

I’ve been in my

Bag bag bag bag bag bag bag

Please don’t touch my
