Oh-eh, oh-eh (oh-eh)

Eh, oh-eh (oh-eh)

Oh-eh, oh-eh (oh-eh)

Eh, oh-eh

You knew from the day you were born

That here in this place you belong

You've been this brave all along

What broke you once made you strong

Dai dai, いこう, dale, allez, let's go

Dai dai, いこう, dale, allez, let's go

Come follow your desire

When there's a will, there's a way

You're the owner of that fire

No one can take it away

Spit out blood to write your story

That is how you paved the way

You're about to reach the glory

Only one step away

All the highs and lows

All the tears and the pain

You've been there through it all

Been through it all, just do it again

Now you got to believe (I believe)

'Cause you know what it takes

To be living my dream

At the top of your game

Feel it, got everything you needed

Now bring it like you mean it

Just like you mean it

Dale, olvida lo que vale

Juega como tú sabes

Como tú sabes

And it's just contagious (you know)

And it never fades (no, no)

No one's getting tired (I know)

'Cause you got that fire (hey, yo)

Aim a little higher

Let's go, let's go, let's go

Hey, yo

Hey, yo

We've taken all that our hearts can hold

And we can't hold on to the past no more

From the dirt and the tears, we make gold

We are more than flesh and bones

All the highs and lows (highs and lows)

All the tears and the pain

You've been there through it all

Been through it all, just do it again

Now you got to believe (I believe)

'Cause you know what it takes

To be living my dream

At the top of your game

Feel it, got everything you needed

Now bring it like you mean it

Just like you mean it

Dale, olvida lo que vale

Juega como tú sabes

Como tú sabes

Pelé, Maradona, Maldini, Romario

Cristiano, Ronaldo

El Pibe, Iniesta, Beckham y Kaká

Messi, Mbappé, Salah

Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Colombia

South Africa, España, Mexico, Japan

Oh-eh, oh-eh (oh-eh)

Eh, oh-eh (oh-eh)

Oh-eh, oh-eh (oh-eh)

Eh, oh-eh

Knew from the day you were born

Here in this place you belong

You've been this brave all along

What broke you once made you strong

Dai dai, いこう, dale, allez, let's go

Dai dai, いこう, dale, allez, let's go

Dai dai, いこう, dale, allez, let's go

Dai dai, いこう, dale, allez, let's go
