[Intro]
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 1: Rei, Jang Wonyoung]
My gaze has grown even deeper
It’s time to cast off my old self
Uh-huh, it’s true
Looks like me, but version two
This space, once so familiar
Now feels unbearably cramped
Uh-huh, it’s true
A final farewell—goodbye

[Pre-Chorus: Liz]
The black sky above
Cracks as if it’s shattering
Breaking through the fissures, I awaken
And it’s time to (Ah)

[Chorus: Leeseo, An Yujin, Rei]
Take it off like a snakeskin
Celebrate this day of my rebirth
Shaking off all those fake things
What follows the pain is truly sweet
A breath unlike yesterday’s, a newfound strength
No one can break me (Ah)
Take it off like a snakeskin
Welcome me to this brand-new world

[Post-Chorus]
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 2: Gaeul, Leeseo]
Still feeling light, so I’ll speed it up
Charging hard across the sand dunes

Time to collide and put myself to the test
My limits remain an uncharted realm
I’m (I’m) just (Just) diving (Diving)
Until I reach the very end
I’m (I’m) just (Just) flying (Flying)
Breaking through the ceiling you’re staring at, I soar away

[Pre-Chorus: An Yujin]
This protective shield
I don’t need it anymore
Escaping this safe little trap
And it’s time to (Ah)

[Chorus: Jang Wonyoung, Liz, Gaeul]
Take it off like A snakeskin
Celebrate this day of my rebirth
Shaking off all those fake things
What comes after the pain is so sweet
A different breath than yesterday, feeling even stronger
No one can break me (Ah)
Take it off like a snakeskin
Welcome to the version of me that has arrived in a new world

[Bridge: Rei, Gaeul]
Look, no fear, I shed my skin
I know I can, I can, eh-eh-eh
Look, no fear, I shed my skin
I know I can, I can, eh-eh-eh
Ah, ah-ah-ah
I know I can, I can, eh-eh-eh
Ah, ah-ah-ah
I know I can, I can, eh-eh-eh

[Interlude: Gaeul, An Yujin]
(Ah, ah-ah-ah)
I know I can, I can, eh-eh-eh
(Ah, ah-ah-ah)
I know I can, I can, eh-eh-eh (Ah)

[Chorus: Jang Wonyoung, Liz, Leeseo, An Yujin]
Take it off like a snakeskin
Celebrate this day of my rebirth (Hey)
Shaking off all those fake things
What comes after the pain is so sweet (What comes after the pain is so sweet)
A different breath than yesterday (a different breath), feeling even stronger (feeling stronger)
No one can break me (break me; Ah)
Take it off like a snakeskin
Welcome to the version of me that has arrived in a new world (Welcome to the version of me that has arrived in a new world)
