[English]

Get up, everybody!

Get up, get up now!

Welcome to BOT!

We’re turning it up now!

RMPG, TJBB!

New show, let’s go!

Pull it up, this is a fight!

Listen to this, the music never stops, no matter how long.

Kick verse, everyone recognizes us as the best players.

Someone’s always whispering, creating legendary classics.

Daily updating, our own classic.

Our skills—eyes, nose, mouth—are all blinging.

This chemical reaction only we can produce.

Rise up, shake it, feel it now!

Oh, should we show off? Even lightning speed feels slow motion now.

We’re not wild enough yet. The stage is ours for the taking.

Fireworks of cheers, bloom proudly now!

Ready for the show!

Let me know who’s the Goodest!

Raise your voices, RMPG!

Let me know who’s the Baddest!

We win 100 to 0, of course!

Who’s the most dangerous? Guess now!

No need to explain, baby!

Already know, already know.

Guys, step back.

Snatch the top shot!

Left to right, heartbeat overlapping.

Right to left, become one!

Black shining in the darkness.

Dyeing everything vividly.

365 days, 24/7!

Always ready for the opportunity that beckons.

Top team, No.1, no lies.

Hurry up—whether it’s this or that, our skills to get it!

Achieving a pace nobody can imitate, constantly evolving.

Just waiting won't get us into the future.

Even skeptical seniors will be convinced when they see this.

From city to city, truly meaningful days.

Turning words into words, turning the road into a path. I did it!

Oh, should we show off? The moment when times are reborn—emotions!

We’re not wild enough yet. The stage is ours for the taking.

Let's face the slow future head-on!

Ready for the show!

Let me know who’s the Goodest!

Raise your voice, TJBB!

Let me know who’s the Baddest!

Of course, it’s a dramatic come-from-behind story!

Who’s the most dangerous? Guess now!

Let’s prove it with the results now, baby!

Already know, already know.

Time is coming!

Snatch the top shot!

Everybody, are you ready? Ready, set, I’m ready!

Everybody, are you ready? Get up, stand up, bro, wow!

The storyline is beginning to move. The road isn’t one single path.

To connect to the next, we’re not afraid to let go.

Crossing the distant future, only believing can make it reach.

Pride in our hearts, take me higher!

Break through, just break!

Ready for the show!

Let me know who’s the Goodest!

Raise your voices, RMPG!

Let me know who’s the Baddest!

Of course, we dominate 100 to 0!

Who’s the most dangerous? Guess now!

No need to explain, baby!

Already know (boys), already know (step back).

Snatch the top shot!

Let me know who’s the Goodest!

Raise your voices (TJBB)!

Let me know who’s the Baddest!

Of course, it’s a dramatic turnaround story!

Who’s the most dangerous? Guess now!

Let’s prove it with the results now, baby!

Already know, time is coming!

Snatch the top shot!
