Lyrics & Translation
Evolving into EX TRIBE, spinning off into COLOR, crazy players, friends forever!
UPSIDE DOWN, WE GO INSIDE OUT
That’s the key to life!
It’s okay to be mistaken, confused, struggling—you’re alright, EI!
UPSIDE DOWN, THE GAME IS ON!
In that strangely subdued, raspy voice
Ignoring words, I took you out with me
Sign of OK with fingers, shouldn't mind with shoulders!
What we should imagine is the future in our minds
While hesitating and wandering, on an endless road
Keep moving straight without retreat, breathe hard and run
As long as you dream, that’s infinity. Oh... So on we go!
UPSIDE DOWN, WE GO INSIDE OUT
That’s the key to life!
It’s okay to be mistaken, confused, struggling—you’re right, EI!
UPSIDE DOWN, THE GAME IS ON!
PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR
WAVE IT LIKE YOU JUST DON’T CARE
PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR
WAVE IT LIKE YOU JUST DON’T CARE...
Don’t pretend you know everything—feel the wonder and awe
Chasing sights you’ve never seen before
With more things to protect—good and bad
My way, your way
Bounce up, brother, and be bold... We won’t be sold!
While hesitating and wandering, in times of frustration
Without retreat, hold your fist to your chest
As long as you dream, that’s infinity. Oh... So on we go!
UPSIDE DOWN, WE GO INSIDE OUT
That’s the key to life!
It’s okay to be mistaken, confused, struggling—you’re alright, EI!
UPSIDE DOWN, THE GAME IS ON!
PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR
WAVE IT LIKE YOU JUST DON’T CARE
PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR
WAVE IT LIKE YOU JUST DON’T CARE...
With the city fading into dusk, streetlights dye the streets
Laughter so carefree, reflecting our silly days
Always admired JSB The First, with spicy sweet vibes, we got it goin’ on!
Evolving into EX TRIBE, spinning off into COLOR, crazy players, friends forever!
Always admired JSB The First, with spicy sweet vibes, we got it goin’ on!

UPSIDE DOWN, WE GO INSIDE OUT
That’s the key to life!
It’s okay to be mistaken, confused, struggling—you’re alright, EI!
UPSIDE DOWN, THE GAME IS ON!
PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR
WAVE IT LIKE YOU JUST DON’T CARE
PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR
WAVE IT LIKE YOU JUST DON’T CARE...
