思いのまま Move that body from side to side

Follow your feelings, move that body from side to side

一瞬の衝撃 Like a lightning

A momentary shock, like lightning

経験したこと無いくらいに

As if you've never experienced before

Rock on 揺らそう We're the sure shot

Rock on, shake it up, we're the sure shot

目の前 広がる 景色の色が

The colors of the scenery spreading before my eyes

鮮やかになる

Become vivid and bright

蹴飛ばす キラーヴァース 今だ 頂く

Kick off with killer verses, now I take the lead

Props over here now

Props over here now

稲妻が打ち抜く心の真ん中

Lightning strikes right in the middle of my heart

We're evolvers 進化に終わりは無い

We're evolvers, there’s no end to our evolution

Shaking the depths of your consciousness, the sound hits your ears

Make a change 覚醒の連鎖が

Starting from nothing, writing a new story

応答せよ さあ Holla back まだだ 必ず 騒がす

Answer back — holler now, it’s not over yet, I’ll make some noise

Got ya luv all the time

Got your love all the time

巻き込む 行く先々で Make u high

着いて来れるか？

Can you keep up?

眠りから覚める 受け継いだ意思とDNA

Awakening from sleep, carrying on the inherited will and DNA

意識の底 貫く音 胸の奥まで

The sound pierces the depths of your consciousness, deep into your chest

Let it rain 洗い流す不安

残るのは新しい自分 Uh…

All that remains is the new self, uh...
