[English]

This is how we roll

Towering thick Cold Walls (Cold Walls)

This cage is a grey maze – Who knows?

A frame surrounds me, but it’s really all fake (Get it up now)

A created image, a place disguised (What is real?)

Created before I knew it

Like a maze Like a maze Like a maze No way out (ya)

(Oh oh oh) As I struggle, the faster my heart beats Can you hear it?

(Oh oh oh) And if I raise my hidden voice Oh, No one can stop us

Breaking the frame Breaking the frame

Light, blocked by an enclosed wall

Kicking up the dust Stomp your first step

We can shout it out LOUD

Kick it away LOUD (We are We are We are on the ground)

(Give me that Give me that)

Break it down, the wall (We can We can We can break it down)

Break down the closed Cold Walls

I’m not afraid Make it LOUD

Growl LOUD and LOUD

The voice I raise is unwavering - Pride

Keep on fighting Louder

Noisily Walking Walking We are a united Squad

Preparations are complete – Hit it Hit it A once in a lifetime Fight

A road that only nods - Blow up

Go and fight against prejudice

Fire your heart up like a Bazooka - Louder

Taking aim – Wreck it Wreck it Skip ahead – Punch uh

Just Hold out, Hold out Outcasts run amok

Just Hold out, Hold out No one can stop us

(Oh oh oh) As I struggle, the faster my heart beats Can you hear it?

(Oh oh oh) And if I raise my hidden voice Oh, No one can stop us

Breaking the frame Breaking the frame

Light, blocked by an enclosed wall

Kicking up the dust Stomp your first step

We can shout it out LOUD

Kick it away LOUD (We are We are We are on the ground)

(Give me that Give me that)

Break it down, the wall (We can We can We can break it down)

Break down the closed Cold Walls

I’m not afraid Make it LOUD

Growl LOUD and LOUD

The voice I raise is unwavering - Pride

Keep on fighting Louder

Don’t worry, just stir it up

Break it down Break it down Break it down (hah)

Tell me what you want, I see

Break it down Break it down Break it down (hah)

Shout it loud Beyond the light

Break it LOUD We can be We can be free

Shout it loud Beyond the light

Breaking the wall

Our new world Call me LOUD

A dazzling new world Call me LOUD Come around

Watch me Watch me LOUD LOUD LOUD LOUD

Watch me Watch me now now now now

I’m not afraid Make it LOUD

Growl LOUD and LOUD

The voice I raise is unwavering - Pride

Beyond the light, louder

LOUD
