[English]

Ain't no limit never running out

Everywhere we go another win, another day

Yeah we shining with the lights out

Even in the dark we find a way to make a way

All my life I've been fighting this and fighting that

Keeping it going even through the trials

Oh this time I ain't looking back, I won't collapse

Head high right now we go oh oh oh

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

It's another day coming on the way

Build another city run it day and night

Live another day yeah we on the way

All around the world we'll run it day and night

(Whoo ooh) Run it day and night

(Whoo ooh) Run it day and night

Gotta be me yeah

I keep pushing my speed without stopping

Countless arrows fly, but they miss

Unstoppable beast

I won't get drunk on this glory, I want more

Achieving an even higher dream

Climbing up one by one, then leaning back

The only thing I do is win win

You're gonna see

Overcoming is easier than despair

Ooh hardships and adversity trained me, feel me?

Grab it all, achieving every single ambition

Again and again, just like I've always done

We're gonna make it

All my life I've been fighting this and fighting that

Keeping it going even through the trials

Oh this time I ain't looking back, I won't collapse

Head high, right now we go oh oh oh

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

It's another day coming on the way

Build another city run it day and night

Live another day yeah we on the way

All around the world

Oh I'll never give up

I'm just gonna stand up

I'm putting my hands up

Towards the sky

We're rising, no fade-out

Across the world spread out

If you feel it, hands up

Towards the sky (Come on)

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

Started in a small room, sound leaking through my phones

Dreams on repeat, building up my throne

From Seoul to the world now they know

My zone we're never alone

This moment is proof we made it

Long nights waited never faded

All that pain yeah I paid it

The tears of blood I shed, I saved them

Matching our steps, getting faster and stronger

The sound of their heartbeats

That's our motivation, can't stop now

Until we're chasing victory

Our story will be left as history

The melodies we hummed are now a symphony

I can hear the sound calling us

I'll dive into this wider world

...

[Korean]

Ain't no limit never running out

Everywhere we go another win, another day

Yeah we shining with the lights out

Even in the dark we find a way to make a way

All my life I've been fighting this and fighting that

시련 속에서도 계속

Oh this time I ain't looking back, I won't collapse

Head high right now we go oh oh oh

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

It's another day coming on the way

Build another city run it day and night

Live another day yeah we on the way

All around the world we'll run it day and night

(Whoo ooh) Run it day and night

(Whoo ooh) Run it day and night

Gotta be me yeah

멈춤 없이 올려 내 speed

수많은 화살에 떠 miss

Unstoppable beast

이 영광에 취하지 않아 더 많은 걸 원해

성취해내 더 높은 dream

하나씩 올리고 편하게 lean

내가 하는 건 오직 하나 win win

You're gonna see

좌절보다 이겨 내는 게 easy

Ooh 고난과 역경이 trained me, feel me?

전부 다 챙겨 그 많은 포부 전부 쟁취

Again and again 여태까지 그래왔던 것처럼

We're gonna make it

All my life I've been fighting this and fighting that

시련 속에서도 계속

Oh this time I ain't looking back, I won't collapse

Head high, right now we go oh oh oh

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

It's another day coming on the way

Build another city run it day and night

Live another day yeah we on the way

All around the world

Oh I'll never give up

I'm just gonna stand up

I'm putting my hands up

저 하늘 향해서

We're rising, no fade-out

Across the world spread out

If you feel it, hands up

저 하늘 향해서 (Come on)

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

Woah run it everywhere all around the world

작은 방 시작 sound leaking through my phones

Dreams on repeat, building up my throne

From Seoul to the world now they know

My zone we're never alone

이 순간이 proof we made it

Long nights waited never faded

All that pain yeah I paid it

흘렸던 피눈물 I saved it

우리 발걸음 맞춰 더 빨라지고 강해지는

그들의 심장 박동 소리

That's our motivation 멈출 수 없지

Until we're chasing victory

우리 이야긴 남겨질 history

흥얼거리던 멜로딘 symphony

우릴 부르는 소리가 들려와

더 넓어진 세상에 뛰어들지
