あるがまま今を見つめ

大事な仲間しねえ放置プレイ

お前の痛みまるごと背負うぜ

尖るMy swag like a鋭利な刃物

切り裂くネガティヴ　無二の抜刀道

ほかでやれFakeなファッションショー

椅子取りゲーム　奪い取る真っ向勝負

絶えず襲う日々の迷い

だが夕空に光る一番星

忘却はよりよき前進を生み

刻まれる年月こそが救い

限りない寛容 森羅万象

儚く尊い life goes on

漆黒の世に紡ぐHistory

かけがえない君達と掴むVictory

視野を広げ　自分解き放て

一撃でぶち抜く賞レース

磨き続けるスキル　All day everyday

絶対ゆずれないプライドを掲げ

上昇気流に乗り突き抜け

一撃でぶち抜く 賞レース

忘れたい悲しみを超え

絶対ゆずれないプライドを掲げ

No Matter What What What

それぞれのLifeひっくるめて全部守り抜く

No Matter What What What

誰一人欠けずに高みへとたどり着く

We gotta live it up, live it up

We can't get enough, get enough

意志あるとこに道はあるさ

光が見える このmusicでアンサー

yeah you already know　TCW　yeah yeah let’s go

リュウくんが居たい場所したい事

それが正解やってみよ未来予想

離れらないトラウマとイタチごっこ

これって被害妄想? Onにしよ! 機内モード

トボトボ１人で立ち往生せずに

スムーズに飛び立つ滑走路

漏らしちゃダメだよ。機密と管理情報

(まあいっか！)

刺激的な今が最高潮！

何度も間違えるたび感じる未熟

昔の僕ならしていた萎縮

高鳴るハートが奏でるリズム

ビートに刻む名もなきイズム

子鹿のように震える膝

それでも立ち続け進みたい今

信じる事を教えてくれた

後悔を癒してくれる十字架

視野を広げ　自分解き放て

一撃でぶち抜く賞レース

磨き続けるスキル　All day everyday

絶対ゆずれないプライドを掲げ

上昇気流に乗り突き抜け

一撃でぶち抜く 賞レース

忘れたい悲しみを超え

絶対ゆずれないプライドを掲げ

No Matter What What What

それぞれのLifeひっくるめて全部守り抜く

No Matter What What What

誰一人欠けずに高みへとたどり着く

We gotta live it up, live it up

We can't get enough, get enough

意志あるとこに道はあるさ

Look at things as they are now

The way you neglect your precious friends

I will bear your pain, all of it

My swag pointed like a sharp blade

Unique swordsmanship, cutting out the negatives

Take your Fake fashion show elsewhere

Musical chairs, fighting to get it back

Daily struggles continuously attack

The first star shining in the evening sky

Moving forward by forgetting

The marked months and years are my salvation

Unlimited tolerance, all things in nature

Fleeting nobility, life goes on

The pitch-black world spins History

So I grab with my irreplaceable friends Victory

Broaden your views, set yourself free

Land a blow to get the race prize

Continue improving your skill All day everyday

Elevate your cast-iron pride

Ride the upward wave and break through

Land a blow to get the race prize

Overcome the pain you wanna forget

Elevate your cast-iron pride

No Matter What What What

Roll each Life into one and protect them all

No Matter What What What

All of us, without fail, reach the highest ground

We gotta live it up, live it up

We can't get enough, get enough

Where’s there’s a will, there’s a way

Look at the light, this music’s the answer

yeah you already know　TCW　yeah yeah let’s go

Where Ryu wants to be, wants to do

Let’s see if that’s correct, a future prediction

Can’t separate from the trauma and that vicious circle

Delusions of being the victims? Let’s turn it On! Airplane mode?

Instead of stalling, all alone fatigued

Instead of stalling, all alone fatigued

Don’t divulge it. Confidential information

(no worries!)

Thrilling now’s the climax!

Each time I fail, I feel that insufficiency

The past me would have withered

My heart’s rhythm plays loudly

The unnamed rhythm carved in the beat

Knees shaking like fawns

But still, I wanna move forward now

The cross that heals regrets

Taught me to believe

Broaden your views, set yourself free

Land a blow to get the race prize

Continue improving your skill All day everyday

Elevate your cast-iron pride

Ride the upward wave and break through

Land a blow to get the race prize

Overcome the pain you wanna forget

Elevate your cast-iron pride

No Matter What What What

Roll each Life into one and protect them all

No Matter What What What

All of us, without fail, reach the highest ground

We gotta live it up, live it up

We can't get enough, get enough

Where’s there’s a will, there’s a way

Look at the light, this music’s the answer
