Dance, New Dance
誰かのシナリオ 縛りつけても(We don’t need it, throw it away)
リアルは now
Everything’s here inside
歪んだSound ミュートすればいい(We just keep on, keep on groove)
止まらない鼓動で
動き出すだけ
すり抜けろ 街のノイズ
止まらないビート 消せない
誰も邪魔できない
New beat is rising high
Dance, New Dance
そのまま飛び出せ 自由のリズムで
ファクトは いま 僕らの中にある
Dance 過去はもう無い 未来を抱きしめて
Right now, we dance
世界を変える New Dance
濁る Word に 流されないで(We won’t follow, break away)
本当の想いは僕らが刻むんだ
偽りのシステム 見抜いていく(We don’t take it, no more lies)
Neon に揺れる闇を僕らがアップデート
No more lies, no compromise
隠された罪も許さない
Change the game, break the chain
この瞬間を変える New dance
Dance そのまま飛び出せ 自由のリズムで
ファクトは いま 僕らの中にある
Dance 過去はもう無い 未来を抱きしめて
Right now, we dance
世界を変える New Dance
世界は変わる New dance
