[English]

Transcending beyond time

Get away from reality, Keep roll

My spontaneous steps

My free Flow

Put down your greatest dreams

Stop the Rule of time

Enjoy Moving freely

Gather in a secret country Ah

Leaving the time and space called awakening

The next journey is called Holding on

I won't be dazzled anymore by what has passed

What you gonna do you baby

I'm living in conflicting times, Real

The fantasy became true Like a deal

The dream I've longed for and how I'm chilling freely

I'm waiting for the future to unfold from now on

No direction is needed in this world

The degree of freedom is unusual

All get away from the confusion

Empty all your thoughts, Fade away

When the lost eyes soften In my zone

Unravel everything that's entangled

Change the meaningless rules

And unfold the secret of time again

Gather the secret space's imagination and focus, Tic toc tic

We got that kick kick kick kick kick

Kick back

We got that kick kick kick kick kick

Kick back

You know we did did did did did

Did that

We got that kick kick kick kick kick

Kick back

Ready set yeah

Dreams unfold in a secret space Kicking back

You know we got that kick kick kick kick kick kick back

Ah we ready ah ah we ready

Kick kick kick kick kick kick back

I don't want to change for the sake of ending I'd rather choose to get out

The connection to time has cut off, and it stopped in our zone Ah

The moment in the past is the future (Ok)

It doesn't matter if we wait (Ok)

Clearing the future, Time and tide, we’re back to zero now (Ok)

Gotta get it tight, jump over the sea of time Oh

Does it really exist? A secret place outside the world Oh

Without doing anything, the rhythm is free, Kick back

Kick back before going to the next starting point (Waiting for the future to unfold)

No direction is needed in this world

The degree of freedom is unusual

All get away from the confusion

Empty all your thoughts, Fade away

When the lost eyes soften In my zone

Unravel everything that's entangled

Change the meaningless rules

And unfold the secret of time again

Gather the secret space's imagination and focus, Tic toc tic

We got that kick kick kick kick kick

Kick back

We got that kick kick kick kick kick

Kick back

You know we did did did did did

Did that

We got that kick kick kick kick kick

Kick back

Ready set yeah

Dreams unfold in a secret space Kicking back

You know we got that kick kick kick kick kick kick back

The reality and dreams allow me to find justice as much as I want

And there’s no time or space to be lost

(No time or space)

Close your eyes, I've made myself complete

I hear someone shouting my name

As you wish, you Can be free

When the light is shining endlessly In my zone

I finally saw the light hidden behind the darkness

After deciding on the final truth

Unfold the secret of time again

Gather the secret space's imagination and focus, Tic toc tic

Know we got that fire

Ready set yeah

Dreams unfold in a secret space Kicking back

You know we got that kick kick kick kick kick kick back
