Lyrics

Rōmaji

Tooku de kikoeru koe wo hitori
Hitori mata hitori de chi agaru toushi
Kurikaesu dake no fudan doori
Itsu ga iku junbi ii ARE YOU READY?

Karadajuu fuu no wa shinzou ni

HEY YO mou basho nori tsuku wa kakugo desho

COME ON EVERYBODY HANDS UP
Mata ashita no HEROES wa COMEBACK

English

I hear someone's voice from far away
One after another the warriors prepare for battle
On a street that only comes back
Forget about being prepared ARE YOU READY?

My body shivers straight to the core
The energy rings out like violent STOMPING
It CALLS ME, always growing, never dying out
This is an unstoppable comeback STORY

Come on, everybody STAND UP
Stand up, today's your best shot!
No one can catch you SPEED HUNTER
Everyone COME BACK now YEAH!

Come on, everybody HANDS UP
Tomorrow is our HERO'S COME BACK
Raise up your hands and COUNT DOWN

Let's go, 3-2-1 MAKE SOME NOISE!

MAKE SOME NOISE! (8x)

Hey, yo, whoa, you ready to deal with all the risks?
You gotta get back up no matter how many times you fall !
Only a paper-thin truce keeps our bond intact
Those feelings have built up and solidified

The rising tide of cheers will give you courage
You'll suffer now as you stand back up
But I know you'll end up smiling!
Push it all away, and feel the thrill of victory!

Come on, everybody STAND UP
Stand up, today's your best shot!
No one can catch you SPEED HUNTER
Everyone COME BACK now YEAH!

Come on, everybody HANDS UP
Tomorrow is our HERO'S COME BACK
Raise up your hands and COUNT DOWN
Let's go, 3-2-1 MAKE SOME NOISE
