キメてよハードモード ほらまず試して
躊躇う理由は? no time to lose
煌めく街で 焦らしはご法度
Input さすれば さあ navigation

越えて ran away 2人

回せ ハンドル leaving 止まれないね
行方握った手 汗ばんだって
ベース音 キミが絡まりついて ヤミつき 離れない
当然 flag signal 信じられないね
未来誤ったって 悟ったって
Only for now⋯

Romaji

kimete yo HARD MODE hora mazu tameshite
tamerau riyuu wa? no time to lose
kirameku machi de jirashi wa gohatto
Input sasureba saa navigation

koete ran away futari

mawase HANDLE leaving tomarenai ne
yukue nigitta te aseban datte
BASS on kimi ga karamaritsuite yamitsuki hanarenai
touzen flag signal shinjirarenai ne
mirai ayamattatte satottatte
Only for now...

Long Version

キメてよハードモード ほらまず試して
躊躇う理由は? no time to lose
煌めく街で 焦らしはご法度
Input さすれば さあ navigation

越えて ran away 2人

回せ ハンドル leaving 止まれないね
行方握った手 汗ばんだって
ベース音 キミが絡まりついて ヤミつき 離れない
当然 flag signal 信じられないね
未来誤ったって 悟ったって
Only for now⋯


チラついて目障り きっとココ勝負時
疑ってるのは? Because I love you
火が灯る街 カーブ曲がった後
もういいかしら?始まる hide & seek

抜けて speedy way 2人で

飛ばせ 裏腹 begin 止まらないね
目的地なんて どこだっていい
Best select キミと 絡まりついて 噛み付き 離さない
安全 flag ship 任せれないね
未来予想なんて 外れたって
Only for now⋯


誰にも追い付けない
箱で 今だけは


回せ ハンドル leaving 止まれないね
行方握った手 汗ばんだって
ベース音 キミが 絡まりついてヤミつき離れない
当然 flag signal 信じられないね
未来誤ったって 悟ったって
Only for now⋯

Song Production Information

RINA

RINA here, I was in charge of the vocals and lyrics this time!
I am honored to be part of music for KONAMI's beatmania IIDX!
I wrote the lyrics by a imaging a car drive while listening to the demo song that was completed back then along with its concept.
My first time singing fast BPM songs like this one was difficult, so sometimes I tried to sing roughly, thinking about a way to sing to get a sense of running!
I'm glad if you can listen to the lyrics and singing, and the other details as well.

NAMI

I'm honored to be in charge of music production for the famous BEMANI series!
While aiming for a psychedelic feeling, I also aimed for catchiness.
I was aware of the melodic lines that I wanted to put, how was it?
Please pay attention to the overlapping of the main melody with the chorus.

KAZUYA TAKASE

Since there was an order to make psychedelic trance, I asked NAMI who likes to make psychedelic-like sounds.
Beautiful synths cover the kick and the bass that shake and tremble the heart.
And RINA's speedful vocals put together the world... It ended being a song with that feeling.
