[English]

All smiles, I know what it takes to fool this town

I'll do it 'til the sun goes down

And all through the nighttime

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah, I'll tell you what you wanna hear

Leave my sunglasses on while I shed a tear

It's never the right time

Yeah, yeah

I put my armor on, show you how strong I am

I put my armor on, I'll show you that I am

I'm unstoppable

I'm a Porsche with no brakes

I'm invincible

Yeah, I win every single game

I'm so powerful

I don't need batteries to play

I'm so confident

Yeah, I'm unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

I'm unstoppable today

Break down, only alone I will cry out loud

You'll never see what's hiding out

Hiding out deep down

Yeah, yeah

I know, I've heard that to let your feelings show

Is the only way to make friendships grow

But I'm too afraid now

Yeah, yeah

I put my armor on, show you how strong I am

I put my armor on, I'll show you that I am

I'm unstoppable

I'm a Porsche with no brakes

I'm invincible

Yeah, I win every single game

I'm so powerful

I don't need batteries to play

I'm so confident

Yeah, I'm unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

I'm unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

I'm unstoppable today

I put my armor on, show you how strong I am

I put my armor on, I'll show you that I am

I'm unstoppable

I'm a Porsche with no brakes

I'm invincible

Yeah, I win every single game

I'm so powerful

I don't need batteries to play

I'm so confident

Yeah, I'm unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

I'm unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

Unstoppable today

I'm unstoppable today
