Lyrics
Raise up your hands takaku Everybody now-te wo agero sā

Tsukame Brand new tomorrow You don’ t stop

Kazenonakade jibun wo shiru zutto zekkei no Dreamer

Oh Let's go Oh Let's go Oh Raise up your hands now

Dareka no tsugō de umarete kita? Ikasa re teru dake kamo-tekina?

Chotto mateyo View kaete miro yo Boy umareru chokuzen ni omae wa

Ichioku-bun'no isshochinuite konoyo ni ogyā tte iu kenri tsukanda

Chō rakkiibōi shitsu kusu mono wa naku Possibility MAXIMAM, Come on

Kezura rete sugiru mainichi But you know?

Seme kai no aru gēmu to waraitobashite

Let's see how fast you can do it

Raise up your hands zutto Everybody now-te wo agero sā

Hashire Sleepless challenger You don’t stop

Genzai ni ikiru riyū sagasu yume tsukinai kuesuto

Oh Let's go Oh Let's go Oh Raise up your hands now

Iki teru dake de marumōkenara Gamble rō ze marugoto ittenbari

Onaji misshon, onaji isshō don dake yume, atsui ka ga shōbudarou

Sono tamashii wa omae shika kizamu koto ga dekinai your own fate

Yagate kieru tada utakata yubi kara koboreru suna no kakera

Meguriatte kanjita sono kodō de Hit the berubotomu senretsu ni Go baaaaaang
