Run wild and never look back
Break out, get a little loud
Shout it from the rooftops now
Wake up, even if you're down
Yeah we gonna run this town
Don't wait, time is running out
Can you hear it ticking, let the music kick in
Break out, get a little loud
Shout it from the rooftops now
People say, play it safe
But I don't wanna live that way
Take a chance, change the game
Let's show 'em that we're not afraid
Run wild and never look back, never look back
The night is waiting
Stand up and don't shut up
The world is for the taking, taking
Run wild and never look back, never look back
No hesitating
Stand up and don't shut up
Tonight is what we make it, make it
Earthquake, gotta shake it up
Gonna make the whole world jump
Stop signs, I think I've seen enough
I'ma leave them in the dust
Right now, breaking down the doors
Can you hear me knockin', get this party rockin'
Earthquake, gotta shake it up
Gonna make the whole world jump
People say, play it safe
But I don't wanna live that way
Take a chance, change the game
Let's show 'em that we're not afraid
Run wild and never look back, never look back
The night is waiting
Stand up and don't shut up
The world is for the taking, taking
Run wild and never look back, never look back
No hesitating
Stand up and don't shut up
Tonight is what we make it, make it
Run, run, run
Fighting the fire, deep inside ya
Make your move tonight, tonight
Run wild and never look back, never look back
The night is waiting
Stand up and don't shut up
The world is for the taking
Run wild and never look back, never look back
The night is waiting
Stand up and don't shut up
The world is for the taking, taking
Run wild and never look back, never look back
No hesitating
Stand up and don't shut up
Tonight is what we make it, make it
Run wild, run wild
Run wild, run wild
Never look back, back, back
