[English]

The world and mountains are about to rain, all for a battle of victory or defeat. Even the wind hides behind the Great Wall, holding its breath in anticipation.

The cheers of the crowd are already outside the clouds. You should be afraid of what's coming next—I'll be even faster.

Jay Jay Jay Chou, Chou Chou Chou Jay, Jay Jay Jay Jay Jay Jay Jay Chou

Ko Ko Ko Be, Be Be Be Ko, Ko Ko Ko Kobe Kobe Kobe

Kobe: So do you want to play ball or sing first?

What-What-What-Whatever, What-What-What-Whatever

What-What-What-Whatever, What-What-What-Whatever

(Cool) You are heaven (Cool) I am earth (Cool) united as one, invincible in the world (of course)

Remember my name (Cool) Jay Chou, walking with confidence—that's called self-assurance.

I hide my true strength well, my figure moves swiftly like the sand gulls, only seeking a battle of heaven and earth.

The night on the court is as dark as ink, streetlights shine like daylight. To play all night, never worried about wins or losses.

My shots are as sharp as hooks, your defense is like armor—it's a close call, quiet and still, in this silent world.

A smile dissolves all grudges, no enemies worth fighting. Feel free and open—many years later (Ooh ooh ooh).

Hum, I strike my signature with every punch and kick.

No second signature—if you want to break it,

first, you need to react faster than me.

Right now, no one exists who can do that.

Even the deepest hell I can walk away from.

The hotter the challenge, the cooler I feel inside.

Do you want to pursue the future or stay on the sidelines?

I create my own style with the most dazzling inspiration.

What-What-What-Whatever, What-What-What-Whatever

What-What-What-Whatever, What-What-What-Whatever

(Cool) You are heaven (Cool) I am earth (Cool) united as one, invincible in the world (of course)

Remember my name (Cool) Jay Chou, walking with confidence—that's called self-assurance.

Kobe: My man

Jay: I'm not your man

I hide my true strength well, my figure moves swiftly like the sand gulls, only seeking a battle of heaven and earth.

[Chinese]

天地山雨欲来 为一场胜败 连风都躲在长城之后 屏息等待

众人的喝采 已九霄云外 你们该害怕接下来 我还会更快

(Cool)你是天(Cool) 我是地(Cool) 合而为一我们天下无敌(Of course)

你要记(Cool) 我的名(Jay Chou) 走路有风这叫做自信

我深藏不露 我身影如梭 如沙鸥只求 天地一斗

球场夜如墨 街灯亮如昼 为了驰骋一宿 胜负不皱

我锐利如钩 你防如铁冑 平分秋色幽了 天地一默

一笑泯恩仇 必争无王寇 快意且开阔 多年以后(喔喔喔)

哼 一拳一脚打出自己招牌

别无分号如果你想要拆

首先你反应要比我更快

目前还没这样的人存在

再深的炼狱我都离得开

越热的考验越透心凉快

你想追求未来还是坐在场外

我用最炫的灵感自成一派

What-What-What-Whatever，What-What-What-Whatever

What-What-What-Whatever，What-What-What-Whatever
