[English]

We have our D.N.A., we have our D.N.A.

The stage begins, an endless relay.

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

Replay as many times as we want.

Answer back, wild D.N.A.

Move forward, no time to stay behind.

Activate destiny.

Unleash your D.N.A.

Anywhere and everywhere.

Hold the reins tight, never let go — own your game.

Awaken your D.N.A.

I'm stepping out of this safe zone, breaking free now.

Break out of your limits — now's the time to move on.

The code of the genes I want to inherit.

Even crossing eras, the heartbeat continues.

Held close to my heart, but I create my own future.

Still rising, seeing sights I've never seen before.

Before it melts away — I scream, whoa!!

I want to burn it into my eyes.

When I shout love and my 'I', let it resonate.

Before I wake up, my dreams.

One step forward, at least.

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

The stage begins, an endless relay.

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

Replay as many times as needed.

Respond, wild D.N.A.

Keep moving, no time to dwell.

Activate your destiny.

Unleash your D.N.A.

Anywhere, everywhere.

Hold the reins tight, never let go — own your game.

Awaken your D.N.A.

I'm getting off, fake threats and impostors.

It's obvious, so give me more — looking for the real thing.

Even in a maze-like spiral, I want to follow my raw instincts.

Held close to my heart, but I create my own era.

Call me a warrior fighting against ordinary common sense.

Challenge whatever defines us as girls.

No more fear, I deserve it all.

My genes are awakening, unstoppable now.

Free yourself, now show your worth.

Let's aim higher together.

We got our D.N.A., we got our D.N.A.

The stage begins, an endless relay.

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

Replay as many times as needed.

Respond, wild D.N.A.

Keep moving forward, no time to stay.

Activate your destiny.

Unleash your D.N.A.

Everywhere and anywhere.

Hold tight to the reins — own your game.

Awaken your D.N.A.

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

The stage begins, an endless relay.

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

We got our, we got our D.N.A.

Answer back, wild D.N.A.

Keep pushing forward, no time to linger.

Power up your destiny.

Unleash your D.N.A.

Anywhere and everywhere.

Hold the reins tight, never let go — own your game.

Awaken your D.N.A.

We got our D.N.A., we got our D.N.A.

The stage starts, an endless relay—awaken your D.N.A.

We have our D.N.A., we have our D.N.A. Replay as many times as needed.

Awaken your D.N.A.

[Japanese]

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

始まるステージ終わらないリレー

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

何度でもリプレイ

応答せよ wild D.N.A.

進め no time to stay

起動せよ運命

解き放て your D.N.A.

どこまでも Everywhere

手綱を握って離さない　Own your game

呼び覚ませ your D.N.A.

I'm steppin' out of このセーフゾーン すぐに抜け出すの

ハミ出そう your limitations　Now it's time to move on

継承したい遺伝子のコード

時代超えたって受け継ぐ鼓動

胸に抱いてる　でも未来は自分で描くもの

Still on the come up　見たことない景色を

溶けちゃう前に　I scream whoa!

焼き付けたいよ目に

愛もiも叫んだら響かせよ

覚めちゃう前にmy dreamを

一歩でも前に

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

始まるステージ終わらないリレー

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

何度でもリプレイ

応答せよ wild D.N.A.

進め no time to stay

起動せよ運命

解き放て your D.N.A.

どこまでも Everywhere

手綱を握って離さない　Own your game

呼び覚ませ your D.N.A.

I'm gettin' off こけおどしのニセモノなど

見え透いてんの　So gimme some more 探す本物

迷路みたいな螺旋の構造でも　嗅ぎつけたい飾らない本能

胸に抱いてる　でも時代は自分で作ってくもの

Call me 平凡な常識に抗う戦士

Challenge what makes girls girls

もう怖くなんてない I deserve all

止められない目覚め始めた my genes

開放して今 show your worth

もっと上に共に行こうか

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

始まるステージ終わらないリレー

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

何度でもリプレイ

応答せよ wild D.N.A.

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

始まるステージ終わらないリレー

We got our D.N.A., got our D.N.A.

We got our, we got our D.N.A.

応答せよ wild D.N.A.
