Lyrics:

[日本語]

[English]

Oh yeah...

Oh yeah...

Better watch out for us now

Better watch out for us now

We’re gonna run this town

We’re gonna run this town

Get down

Get down

陽の当たらないような この街並みを

Through these cityscapes where sunlight doesn't reach

深い闇が 飲み込んでいく

Deep darkness is swallowing it all

今でもずっと 日常のループの中

Even now, trapped in this endless routine

もがき続けて Crazy, Crazy, Crazy

Struggling on, crazy, crazy, crazy

一人逃げ込んだ 暗がりで 見上げた空

I ran off alone into the dark and looked up at the sky

祈り捧げたって Can you save me, save me now?

Even if I pray, can you save me, save me now?

誰も (Get it, Get it) この場所を

No one (Get it, Get it) can escape this place

(Nobody, Nobody makes it) 抜け出せない

(Nobody, nobody) can get out

愛の意味さえ知らない

We don't even know what love truly means

名乗るべき 名前なんてない

There's no name we should call ourselves

だけど 今も諦めない

But still, I won't give up now

Make it true Yeah...

Make it real, yeah...

We’re gonna run this town

We're gonna run this town

微(かす)かな希望 誰にも邪魔はさせない

A faint hope, no one can stop us

R-R-R-Run this town 広がる世界

R-R-R-Run this town, a world expanding

Hurry up, Hurry up 奪いに行こう

Hurry up, hurry up, let's go take it

Rude Boys Here we go どれだけ 叫んでも まだこの声は届かない

Rude boys, here we go No matter how much we shout, our voices still can't be heard

ここから 抜け出そう

Let's break free from here

今すぐに Run this town

Right now, run this town

描く Whole new world

Create a whole new world

信じていた 未来を見に行こう

Let's go see the future we believed in
