近頃そろそろゲンカイ! ルールなんかカンケーない! こんな日々振り切って今すぐ飛び出そう!! 何もかも許されない 自由にだってなりたい カタチなんてこだわんない 壊したってかまわない!! いつだって強く激しく!!! 思いはただヒトツ 終わりなんて信じない ホントの明日探し出せるまで! BRE∀K DOWN! 爆音でなる MUSIC 高鳴る TENSION 遠くまで飛ばしまくれ! ENGINE 全開っっ!! この風に飛び乗って 怒りも悲しみも 全部残らず投げ飛ばせっっ! (そのさ、つまんない話付き合ってる暇なんかあたしにはないんだよね。) (レベル低いんじゃないの?) LET'S GO!! 爆発しちゃうくらい 何も聞こえないくらい 胸のおく突き刺すくらい SPEED 全開っっ!! 向かい風にだって 負けるコトなんてない 戦い続けろっっ!!
