[English]

Time is money

Thank you so much for your time

My best outfit is this body built on a rough path

Polished diamonds and treasures, on a steady rise

Even if you're jealous, we so deserve it

Time is money

My sensibilities are renewed every day

The cheers when I give my treasures

The regrets from all my mistakes

It all becomes nourishment

Flowers can't bloom in dirty water

You can tell just by looking, right?

Rising from the cracks in the earth

That's what it means to stand on this stage

Carving my mark on the scene like a ninja

Taking all the gratitude in 2026

Earning millions of dollars

Like a BIGMAMA

Always leveling up

No time to stumble

Time is money

Thank you so much for your time

My best outfit is this body built on a rough path

Polished diamonds and treasures, on a steady rise

Even if you're jealous, we so deserve it

Time is money

Beside the lush green grass

I don't need your sympathy

The various titles I hold

Are being promoted to antique swords

Which one should I choose?

Picking from an infinite number of options

To wear upon this stage right now

Treading firmly to leave my footprints

Until the soles of my shoes wear out

The distance I've traveled without stopping

Is ringing the bells of victory

No wasted time, no cheating

Rather than the well-known shortcuts

The scenery found on the detour

And the treasure map I found there

Time is money

Thank you so much for your time

My best outfit is this body built on a rough path

Polished diamonds and treasures, on a steady rise

Even if you're jealous, we so deserve it

Time is money

[Japanese]

Time is money

時間くれてほんとありがとう

一張羅はこの荒道でできた Body

磨き上げたダイア詰まった宝うなぎ登り

羨ましくてもWe so deserve it

Time is money

毎日リニューアルされる感性

宝あげる歓声

間違いだらけ反省

全部それも糧

汚れた水じゃ花はさけない

見れば分かるだろ

from亀裂大地

ステージに立ってるそういう事だろ

シーンは宝きざむまるで忍者

2026美味くもらう感謝

稼ぐミリオンダラー

like a BIGMAMA

常に上にLevel up

つまづく暇ねーな

Time is money

時間くれてほんとありがとう

一張羅はこの荒道でできた Body

磨き上げたダイア詰まった宝うなぎ登り

羨ましくてもWe so deserve it

Time is money

青い芝生ほとりに

同情は滅相もない

幾つかある肩書き

アンティークな刀に昇格

どれにしようか

無限にある中から選び

羽織る今このステージ

足跡つくよう踏み締め

靴底削るまで

歩み止めず稼いだ距離が

鳴らしてる勝利の鐘

なかった無駄やチート

周知済みの近道より

迂回して知る景色

そこで拾った宝の地図

Time is money

時間くれてほんとありがとう

一張羅はこの荒道でできた Body

磨き上げたダイア詰まった宝うなぎ登り

羨ましくてもWe so deserve it

Time is money
