Lyrics
Japanese
未知の不安や今の不満を誰もが抱え その思いを分かち合える大事な人がいる？ 過去を受け止めて信じるチカラ今持ってほしい！ いつだって側にいるから！ どんなに長い道だっていつかはたどりつけるんだ 少しの勇気が僕らを動かす 遠回りしたっていい 一緒にあの彼方まで… ずっと負けない心 堅い意志胸に抱き 僕らは明日へと進む 見えないチカラが変えてく 消えない未来へ… 立ち向かう強さ持って 一緒に乗り越えていこう！ Let's go!! Let's go!! Let's go!!

- Before pop'n music 15 ADVENTURE, チカラ's character was Bis子 [9-1P] and the songwheel genre was チカラ.
- チカラ was the only KONAMI original BeForU song under the BeForU alias that wasn't removed from DanceDanceRevolution X, pop'n music 17 THE MOVIE, or GuitarFreaks V6 & DrumMania V6: BLAZING!!!!.
- チカラ is the only BEMANI crossover in DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA that's never been on a non-Japanese DDR console title.
- A unused banner for チカラ which doesn't feature RIYU's illustration, can be found in the DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA data.
