English (Full Version)
A voice heard in the distance gives me a hint One by one like-minded people are standing up Lets overturn all the everyday, monotonous things I'm ready, are you ready? A shiver spreads through my body, violently ringing stomping Constantly stirring in me, it calls me, catching that unchanging, never wavering, Come on!!

Come on!!

Everybody stand up! Today's the best time to get up! Before my eyes you still don't stop, speed hunter Everyone is a victim to that attraction, Yeah! (Come on!) Everybody Hands up! It's the highly anticipated Hero's Come Back! Hold up your fingers and count down Let's go, 3-2-1 make some noise!

What you gonna do? What you gonna do? Carving out that incessantly ringing sound It's a shock greater than dejavu It runs through my body relentlessly, a break down Turn it up (turn it up) Hey, can you hear it? I had been screaming it since yesterday It's changing, to the unseen tomorrow To the point my emotions overflow and spill over

The anticipated Show time where fate blooms and scatters Is it more inclined to victory or defeat? Even though I sit, I'll still collapse today Wipe away your sweat and blood Your wishes, your pride, all of them are piled on your back So have no mercy Keep your potential, your mental expressions

It's like everyone and their mother has been waiting for a hero* I saw the romantic flight in just one night Isn't that great? It's not like that Kick on the corner, isn't that enough for you? I protect all of those different, cold-hearted personalities Like a Terminator 4 times, 5 times stand up, highlight (Fly high, yeah!) I might as well tell you all about it

Everybody stand up! Today's the best time to get up! Before my eyes you still don't stop, speed hunter Everyone is a victim to that attraction, Yeah! (Come on!) Everybody Hands up! It's the highly anticipated Hero's Come Back! Hold up your fingers and count down Let's go, 3-2-1 make some noise!

Are you ready for a few risks? You have to get up no matter how many times you fall (Get it on!) It's not some conspiracy, just a paper-thin session The pent up feelings turn into a crystal The extension of "made in human" drama Blazing up like Yoshiwara fires The endless future tumbles into the everyday Its something so stupid you can't help but laugh

Inferiority blows, but I won't lose to the head wind It envelops me every time I encounter it Countless times, here, I've stood to battle If that's the way to fight, my body sees it The pretension of one night, two nights The things we want to protect are different, so wave the white flag My eyes yearn for sunlight, I know only shadow I'll hear no excuses, THAT is real

With each fight I'm proud From start to finish, I haven't lost anything yet There's no "yes or no," someday you'll laugh like this In a flash, it's decided, let's go, partner!

The rising cheers will become your courage So stand up now, no matter how much pain you feel But in the end I'm sure you'll laugh Everything will be swept away in victory and cheer

Everybody stand up! Today's the best time to get up! Before my eyes you still don't stop, speed hunter Everyone is a victim to that attraction, Yeah! (Come on!) Everybody Hands up! It's the highly anticipated Hero's Come Back! Hold up your fingers and count down Let's go, 3-2-1 make some noise! Everybody stand up! Today's the best time to get up! Before my eyes you still don't stop, speed hunter Everyone is a victim to that attraction, Yeah! (Come on!) Everybody Hands up! It's the highly anticipated Hero's Come Back! Hold up your fingers and count down Let's go, 3-2-1 make some noise!
