[English]

S-T-A-Y-C, let's go

Put your hands up (right, right, right)

If you're bored, come on (let's raise our hands)

I'm definitely feeling it right now, right now

My style is so lit, really

Every day, it's the same thing

Didn't see what's wrong? Yeah

Anything, let's make it happen

We can make something really good

No more boredom, no, no

Let’s enjoy it even more

Don’t tell me it’s too late

It’s starting now

A future no one knows

I hope so, I hope so, yeah

No need to be afraid anymore

Say my name

My style is so lit, lit, lit, lit, lit, lit

I just want a little bit

Doesn't matter what they say, yeah

Lit, lit, lit, lit, lit, lit

Want me like this, this, this, this

Doesn't matter what they say, yeah

Time won't wait (bet, bet)

Shine a light on my future (bet, bet)

Keep walking forward without looking back, hold on me

I don't care about others, my life is so lit

Get it on, babe, shake it off, relax

Wannabe, just trying to play, play, play

No worries, no worries, just imagine anything

Don’t tell me it’s too late, it’s just the beginning

The future I will create

I wanna, I wanna be

I won’t stop anymore

Say my name

My style is so lit, lit, lit, lit, lit, lit

Just want a little bit

Doesn't matter what they say, yeah

Lit, lit, lit, lit, lit, lit

Want me like this, this, this, this

Doesn't matter what they say, yeah

Time won't wait anymore (bet, bet)

My future is always mine (bet, bet)

Don’t look back, just keep moving forward, hold on me

No matter what anyone says, my life is so lit

Put your hands up

My time

My story right now, right now

Running to the place I want with you

My style is so lit, lit, lit, lit, lit, lit (oh, whoa)

Just want a little bit, bit, bit, bit (dance with me)

Doesn't matter what they say, yeah

Lit, lit, lit, lit, lit, lit (so lit)
