[English]

Yes I'm Rocky. Feel like I'm Rocky.

Dance on the floor Feel like I'm Rocky.

Yes I'm Rocky. Feel like I'm Rocky.

Dance on the floor Dance

It ain't over never die Move even more

Won't ever fall Without hesitation, let's dance

Our time Left hook, Right hook Without rest, attack

A fire lights in my eyes The pressure doubles in a second

Fighting spirit in excess Adrenaline at max

Rival, whatever, I don't care 메롱 (maerong)

Hang on, pointless warm-ups

Hello Ladies and gentlemen

No need for words Look at me

Way up Champion belt in my hands

From my arrival, say oh

Time flies by

Who lies ahead No one knows

It ain't over never die Move even more

Won't ever fall Without hesitation, let's dance

Our time Watch right till the end

It ain't over never die Move even more

Can't ever give up Without hesitation, let's dance

We're never gonna give up

We're boxers

Until the bell goes ding-ding-ding, attack

Left hook, Right hook Without rest, attack

One two, One two Without rest, attack

Yeah, Let's start the second round fix on Faster than a bullet, this punch Uh yeah yeah

Pistol ain't on the same level. machine gun yeah yeah

The flowing sweat melts the frozen feet Steady your breathing, open your eyes, hook

Let me let me let me let me hear your voice Loudly call out my name, need your voice

An ambitious fist the entire world is watching Me in the boxing ring, aiming even higher Say my name

Time flies by

Who lies ahead No one knows

It ain't over never die Move even more

Won't ever fall Without hesitation, let's dance

Our time Watch right till the end

It ain't over never die Move even more

Can't ever give up Without hesitation, let's dance

We're never gonna give up

We're boxers

Until the bell goes ding-ding-ding, attack

Left hook, Right hook Without rest, attack

One two, One two Without rest, attack

Even if there are times when I feel discouraged

For you, I'll rise

I never give up I never run away

The me who will never give in

It ain't over never die Move even more

Won't ever fall Without hesitation, let's dance

Our time Watch right till the end

It ain't over never die Move even more

Can't ever give up Without hesitation, let's dance

We're never gonna give up We're boxers
