Lyrics

(Uh! Yeah! C'mon!
Player 1 Player 2, uh, where you at? C'mon!)

Hey yo, I'm like this, so watch the moves that I make
How I take over the floor, throw the grooves that I shake
I'm number one, how'd you figure that I'm losing my place?
If your the joker, player, then who's the ace?
Hey, yo, it's me, the player to beat, I'm playin' for keeps
I got some special moves, so homie don't sleep
You learn and I teach controllin' the game
You can brag all you want, but you kids don't be rollin' the same
I'm bringin' the pain...
(c'mon)
The game is done, you might as well run
My time is come and I'm gonna shine like the sun
(what?)
No suprise, I'll bust a flip on you guys
The dance moves I do, I'm keepin' it live
Keepin' the vibe, fly-guy style express
Competition is none, player, and I jam like that
I'm the best, can't be beat, you know it's me, keep up the pace,
and you'll advance with me, c'mon

Let's see who's better (Better)
Player one or player two
I wanna groove with you
(Wanna get some) so turn me on!

Let's see who's better (Let's see)
Player one or player two
I wanna groove with you
(I wanna) so turn me on!

Yo! I got more men than you
Baby, I'm on to you
Special powers that will burn your crew.
High-power flips that'll blow through you
Mad kicks mad flips that will go through you
Once my energies start burnin' through
Chops through your face, then I'm blastin' you
I'm laughin' too
Competition's far too new
Where's the real competition cuz the game is through

Song Production Information

NAOKI MAEDA

It's a mid-tempo song with a HIP HOP style, which was recorded in Miami with vocalists and rappers participating in Dancemania BASS. I think the simple tempo is closer to the original dance style, which makes it easier to perform naturally. By the way, there are three arrangements of this song in total. A different version of this song is included in BEAT MANIA 2DX 2nd style.
