It's up to you

Chu ru Chu ru Chu Chu Chu

It's up to me

Chu ru Chu ru Chu Chu Chu

Chu ru Chu ru Chu Chu Chu

It's up to me

Values are all so different

How can I tell if it's trendy or not?

Liking something isn't an experience itself

Don’t just believe in the number of stars

Soon we’ll grow up

Someone set the boundaries

But you're already impressive

The future 100 years from now

We can't really be sure

Right now, we're creating this moment

WOW WOW ah ah, WOW WOW ah ah

Whose life should I live for?

WOW WOW ah ah, WOW WOW ah ah

Chu ru Chu ru Chu Chu Chu

Worry keeps me from sleeping

Is this what love at first sight feels like? What?

I want to be a billionaire, but

There’s no one I can talk to about it

I’ll eventually set out on my journey

Feeling wrapped in loneliness

Honestly, I miss you so much

Ten minutes from now, I believe

I’ll be chasing after you

Even tomorrow, I can't wait for me

WOW WOW ah ah, WOW WOW ah ah

What can I do for you?

WOW WOW ah ah, WOW WOW ah ah

The future 100 years from now

We can't really be sure

Right now, we're creating this moment

WOW WOW ah ah, WOW WOW ah ah

Whose life should I live for?

WOW WOW ah ah, WOW WOW ah ah
