Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Cuz We're meant to BE CLASSIC

Yeah, a stage that starts like fate

A message hidden in the musical rests

Hear a sound, hear a sound, feel it

Feelings crescendo (Don’t you know yet?)

Wow, dancing on top of this keyboard

Showing off freely, performing

I won’t let anyone else command me Oh, oh, oh (I’m in charge by myself)

A story born from gathered sound particles Becomes eternal

We show the next opus (now)

Let it resonate BE BE CLASSIC

A spinning sound BE BE CLASSIC

To the place you want to reach

Check it 1,2,3,4 BE (CLASSY)

Lalala BE BE CLASSIC

Lalala BE BE CLASSIC

A layered melody

Cuz We're meant to BE CLASSIC

Black&White That's it, boring

My score is decided I’ve no intention of following

Going up, going up - just like this

Rewriting to the TOP

Clap Clap Clap

See? Standing ovation

Even the cheers that rise up Are up high in the sky

Tap Tap Tap

Now it’s time to create

We paint the world with our voices

An eternal, never-ending song

Let’s play as far as we can

We show the next opus (now)

Let it resonate BE BE CLASSIC

A spinning sound BE BE CLASSIC

To the place you want to reach

Cuz We're meant to BE CLASSIC

In the darkness, I can’t see anything

Even if I’m just wandering

(Woah) Yeah, go towards the sound

(Woah) Lead me

Let it resonate BE BE CLASSIC

A spinning sound BE BE CLASSIC

To the place you want to reach

Check it 1,2,3,4 BE (CLASSY)

Lalala BE BE CLASSIC

Lalala BE BE CLASSIC

A layered melody

Cuz We're meant to BE CLASSIC

CLASSIC

Go to the TOP and be the ONE

The rhythm of my heartbeat (Hey)

CLASSIC

Go to the TOP and be the ONE

The very best

Cuz We're meant to BE CLASSIC
