[English]

Come on, come on, let's lift our souls high

I can't lose, I'm dynamite

Come on, come on, let's break through these raging waves

Let's break through history

A decisive blow

Game change to a new world

No objections to the status quo

Rebellion is pointless

Don't resist, it's the roller coaster of fate

Wouldn't that be just so uncool?

Losing is such a disgrace

Feeling bitter, is that wrong?

As humans, let's fight using our ego as a weapon

Victory in everything, beyond our limits

Desire, inner struggle, jealousy

Stay hot

Come on, come on, let's lift our souls high

I can't lose, I'm dynamite

Come on, come on, let's break through these raging waves

Let's surpass history

A decisive blow

Game change to a new world

I want to choose stability

Live energy-saving

If I stay breathless, I get tired!

Start to fear failure

Hold my head in my hands

Becoming fragile, a matter of life and death

It's a time when people don't fight openly

Trends now vanish in an instant

Face today with honesty and pride

...

The sky sleeps, stealing away its colors

Break through the darkness, follow your instincts, move forward

...

Come on, come on, even a double-edged sword is fine

Hit the open sea, bring on the dynamite

Come on, come on, let's compare ourselves to someone

The strongest in humanity's

Impact—pages of shock

Game change to a new era

...
