I will run, I will climb, I will soar, I’m undefeated.
我将奔跑，我将攀爬，我将飞翔,永不言败。
Jumping out of my skin, pull the chord. Yeah, I believe it.
脱离身体的桎梏，拉动琴弦，哦，我相信。
The past, is everything we were don’t make us who we are，
往昔，逝去的光阴不会决定现在,
So I’ll dream, until I make it real, and all I see is stars,
所以我们梦想，直到变成真，看到满天星光，
It’s not until you fall that you fly,
经历跌倒，才能飞翔，
When your dreams come alive you’re unstoppable,
当你的梦想成真，你是不可阻挡，
Take a shot, chase the sun, find the beautiful,
挥着翅膀，追逐太阳，寻找美丽，
We will glow in the dark turning dust to gold,
在黑暗中闪耀点石成金，
And we’ll dream it possible possible. And we’ll dream it possible.
我们会梦想成真，有可能的，我们会梦想成真。
Thank You
