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.
