Music Video[]

The music video begins with Matsuoka approaching a pile of car parts. He picks up a blue-colored toy car, gets into a white car, and drives off. As Matsuoka and his band perform the song in the Drive Pit, several montages are shown:

  • Matsuoka in his garage singing along
  • Matsuoka staring into the desert sky
  • Matsuoka lying on the road
  • Drive and Mashin Chaser fighting at night

Halfway through the video, Matuoka pulls over in the middle of the road and comes face-to-face with Drive and Tridoron. After a brief exchange, Matsuoka returns to his car while it turns red, and drives off once again. In one final montage, the toy car in which Matsuoka picked up, was now red.

Japanese Romaji English Translation

雨上がりBreak Cloud 隙間から
青空が手招きしてる
Alright そろそろ行こうか

誰かが言うLogic 信じない
直感は信じていたい
High Time 始まりを探して

Fire Up, Ignition
ヘヴィーなプレッシャー ぶっ壊して アクセル踏み込め

Surprise 世界中がDrive!(It's faster than ever)
Feelin' high 目醒めるような(Drivin' Show me)
始まる 運命には(keep chasin' forever)
バックギアはない… All we need is “DRIVE”

いつだってそうさ目を伏せて
傍観者気取っていれば
Alright 後悔もないね

言い訳みたいな 「でも」「だって」「だけど」
吐き捨てた道は行き止まり
Right Time 出口はすぐそこに

Shift Up, Goin' High

Surprise 世界中がDrive!(It's faster than ever)

SURPRISE-DRIVE (x2)

Signal kawaru toki
All We Need Is "DRIVE"

After the rain, from the break in the clouds
The blue sky is beckoning
Alright, let's get going

I don't believe in other people's logic
I want to believe in my instincts
It's high time we search for the beginning

Fire Up, Ignition
The pressure's heavy
but break through and step on the accelerator!

Surprise, the world is on a drive (It's faster than ever)
Feelin' High like I've just awakened (Drivin' Show me)
Once we've begun our fate... (keep chasin' forever)
There's no way to go back...
All we need is "DRIVE"

Always keeping your head in
Thinking you're blending into the scenery
Alright, that's a way you could keep trouble off of you

You may want to say "But" "Maybe" or "Because"
But reasons like those won't get you anywhere
It's the right time when you're closer than you'd think!

Shift Up, Going High
Are you tired of being passed all the time?
Then speed up towards the Winding Road!

Surprise, this is the Era of Drive! (It's faster than ever)
Feelin' High, when you hear that voice calling you (Drivin' Show me)
Don't fret when you think your heart's paused (keep chasin' forever)
Just Shift it into Top Gear 'cause
All we need is "DRIVE"

Blink for only a moment
And that one chance will go right through you
It doesn't matter if the objectives become difficult
Baby Kick on Drive!

Surprise, the world is on a drive (It's faster than ever)
Feelin' High like I've just awakened (Drivin' Show me)
Once we've begun our fate... (keep chasin' forever)
There's no way to go back...

SURPRISE-DRIVE (x2)
When that signal starts to change...
All we need is "DRIVE"!

The Eternal Blue Change Into The Driving Red
