Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't wanna be a G-ster no mo'
I just wanna be a big star
I'm gonna be on top
I'm gonna be on top in this city
全てをこの手に
I'm gonna be on top of the world
As a showman
Hour, minute, second
刻まれている
スケジュールこなして倒れ込む
今夜は一人にしてくれ please baby
缶を開け溢れる泡ごと飲み干す
目を閉じて浸りたい今のステイタス
Hey, can you respect that?
眠れない程に見ている夢は醒めない
I'm gonna be... / I'm gonna be
on top in this city
全てをこの手に
I'm gonna be on top of the world
As a showman
ポジションはナンバーワン
Bye-bye yesterday 一秒の差で
今日が明日に変わる
don't know where
the time goes,though
やり直すから God,
gimme one mo'chance
傷が癒えたならまた
踏み出すステップ
戻れない street life,
hustlin' days
成り上がり feelin' alive
終わらない階段駆け昇り続ける
I'm gonna be...
I'm gonna be on top in this city
全てをこの手に
I'm gonna be on top of the world
As a showman
ポジションはナンバーワン
I'm gonna be on top in this city
全てをこの手に
I'm gonna be on top of the world
As a showman
ポジションはナンバーワン
スポットライト
当たらない場所は
息苦しい
Breathe!
So, I've got to be on top
I'm gonna be on top ...
I'm gonna be on top in this city
全てをこの手に
I'm gonna be on top of the world
As a showman
ポジションはナンバーワン
I'm gonna be on top in this city
全てをこの手に
I'm gonna be on top of the world
As a showman
ポジションはナンバーワン
Top, I've got to be on top
Gonna be on top
