Lyrics
Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, follow your heart When the world seems so lost in itself and you feel that life is not so easy on you (Follow your dreams, follow your heart) Don't forget that you're not by yourself For together we can make this world a better place Give it a chance (There's time to save this planet now) Give us a hand Find the way to help Mother Earth (It is not too late to give her a chance) Help make her proud (We can work a way to building up a new future) Twinkling stars are watching us The twinkling stars are watching from above (Keeping an eye on us) What we do today can make another difference (Open your heart and your mind) What we do today can make another difference (To the world now) (Make a difference) What we do today can make another difference (Open your heart and your mind) What we do today can make another difference (To the world, do it now) Together we can build a better world Together we can make it better now Together we can build a better world now Together we can make it better now Together we can build a better world Together we can make it better now Together we can build a better world. Now's the time Together we can make it better Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, yes you can Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams, follow your heart Follow your dreams Follow your dreams!

Trivia
- According to wac, the original version of Make A Difference originally featured him doing the chorus of the song. This was later changed to sound closer to a song like たまゆら.
- He also mentions that at one point Make A Difference would have featured a cappella vocals. This was later ruled out due to the sheer difficulty of implementing them into a music game.
- Make A Difference was revived in beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS with a new, harder Single HYPER chart, as well as a brand-new Single ANOTHER. The NORMAL chart is unchanged.
- Make A Difference received an Doubles ANOTHER chart in beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS + PREMIUM BEST. This chart was carried over to the arcade releases in beatmania IIDX 18 Resort Anthem.
- It also received a new BEGINNER chart in beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS + PREMIUM BEST.
- As of beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro, Make A Difference has its own dedicated video from the DanceDanceRevolution series, slightly extended to match the beatmania IIDX audio.
- It's also currently the only song sung by Noriko Fukushima in any BEMANI arcade series.
