[English]

X-Phenomenon

Tokyo, Paris, New York

Crossing borders

Like a viral infection

X-Phenomenon

Sometimes sweet, sometimes furious

So dangerous

Who's got the juice?

Black light stars and dance

Driving a flying supercar (Ah-ah)

Welcome to the new world

Don't miss it, ride or die

Every day rewriting the basics

Clear with laser eye surgery

Resonating, crossing into X

Hearts blazing, riding in my spaceship

Calling you

We were guided to meet each other again

No need for reasons, just fate's Godspeed

Let's go together to a new world

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Let's make it echo

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) This voice

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Never stopping

A miracle shouts in cheers

We ain't stop

X-Phenomenon (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

Can't stop anymore (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

Jumping over any wall

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

Swallowing everything with X-Phenomenon

Go! Overcoming all the pressure

Swiping away in seconds, throwing it out

Breaking free from negativity, in zero gravity

We got to get it popping, we got to get it popping

Life is short

Bet everything, tumbling dice

No time to look back

Without hesitation, do right

Time's flowing sands, past behind

Changing, but

Carving it in my heart so I won't miss even a moment

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Let's make it echo

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) This voice

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Never stopping

A miracle shouts in cheers

We ain't stop

X-Phenomenon (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

Can't stop anymore (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

Jumping over any wall

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

Swallowing everything with X-Phenomenon

The times are reborn now, oh

Shining brightly, making a sound (Ah)

Opening the door to a new dimension

Swallowing everything with X-Phenomenon

...

X-Phenomenon

Tokyo, Paris, New York

国境を越えて

Like a viral infection

X-Phenomenon

時に甘く Furious

危険なほど

Who's got juice?

Black light の星と Dance

空飛ぶ Super carで Drive (Ah-ah)

Welcome to 新世界

乗り遅れるなよ Ride or die

日々塗り替えられてく Basic

見極める心にもレーシック

共鳴して交差する Xに

ココロ Blazing, ride in my spaceship

Calling you

僕ら導かれるように 巡り合えたよ

理由なんていらない 運命の Godspeed

共に行こう New world

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) 響かせよう

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) この声を

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) 鳴り止まない

奇跡のシュプレヒコール

We ain't stop

X-Phenomenon (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

止められないもう (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

どんな壁も飛び越えていく

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

すべてを飲み込む X-Phenomenon

Go! 立ちはだかる重圧

秒でスワイプ 捨て去るんだ

ネガ抜け出し 無重力

We got get it popping, we got get it popping

人生は短い

すべて賭け Tumbling dice

振り返る暇はない

迷わずに Do right

溢れゆく時の砂は過去へ

変わるけれど

一瞬さえ逃さぬように胸に刻みつけて

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) 響かせよう

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) この声を

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) 鳴り止まない

奇跡のシュプレヒコール

We ain't stop

X-Phenomenon (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

止められないもう (Phenomenon, eh-eh)

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

どんな壁も飛び越えていく

We the wild ones, we the wild ones

すべてを飲み込む X-Phenomenon

時代が今 生まれ変わる Oh

音を立て 輝き出す (Ah)

新次元へと広がるドア

すべてを飲み込む X-Phenomenon
