[English]

Legends never die

when the world is calling you

Can you hear them screaming out your name?

Legends never die

they become a part of you

Every time you bleed for reaching greatness

Relentless you survive

They never lose hope when everything's cold and the fighting's near

It's deep in their bones they run into smoke when the fire is fierce

'Oh pick yourself up, cause

Legends never die

when the world is calling you

Can you hear them screaming out your name?

Legends never die

they become a part of you

Every time you bleed for reaching greatness

Legends never die

They're written down in eternity

But you'll never see the price it costs,

the scars collected all their lives

When everything’s lost

They pick up their hearts and avenge defeat

Before it all starts,

they suffer through harm

just to touch a dream

'Oh pick yourself up, cause

Legends never die

when the world is calling you

Can you hear them screaming out your name?

Legends never die

they become a part of you

Every time you bleed for reaching greatness

Legends never die

When the world is calling out your name

Begging you to fight

Pick yourself up once more

Pick yourself up, cause

Legends never die

when the world is calling you

Can you hear them screaming out your name?

Legends never die

they become a part of you

Every time you bleed for reaching greatness

Legends never die
