Whoever shouts the loudest wins
No matter how tough this road is
I’m not afraid
The sky is vast, the earth is wide, I am bold
Bad people see us and get scared
We are the happy gentlemen
Laughing heartily
Let’s set off again, let’s set off
You are the number one I wish for
Heaven cherishes this kind of life
Bitter moments are just like dancing the cha-cha
Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid
We are brave little flying heroes
Wearing helmets, we fight
People say it’s not possible until you’re famous
I have confidence, it won’t hurt
I am serious about living
I don’t want to waste my youth and life
Bad reputation
I have a girl who loves me
I have happiness as my companion
I want to make her life joyful
Cherish life
Let’s set off again, let’s set off
Help me wipe the sweat, waving the flowers
No matter how big the wind and rain are
To achieve the future, we must move forward
Let’s set off, let’s set off...
Help me shine my shoes
No strength, no stinky bombs
There’s a shadow here to challenge
Let’s set off again, let’s set off
To win the championship, to be number one
Heaven cherishes this kind of life
Bitter moments are just like dancing the cha-cha
Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid
You are a brave little flying hero
Wearing helmets, we fight
People say it’s not possible until you’re famous
The wind is strong, the rain is heavy, the sun is bright
Whoever shouts the loudest wins
No matter how tough this road is
I’m not afraid
The sky is vast, the earth is wide, I am bold
Bad people see us and get scared
We are the happy gentlemen
Laughing heartily
I have confidence, it won’t hurt
I am serious about living
I don’t want to waste my youth and life
Bad reputation
The sky is vast, the earth is wide, I am bold
Bad people see us and get scared
We are the happy gentlemen
Laughing heartily
I have a girl who loves me
I have happiness as my companion
I want to make her life joyful
Cherish life
The wind is strong, the rain is heavy, the sun is bright
Whoever shouts the loudest wins
No matter how tough this road is
I’m not afraid
