English Lyrics
I can't keep focused, my body's still wavering

Trembling like I am, my control is shaky

Both the sun and my luck have turned the other way,

but I whispered "I've gotta do it," to convince myself

The situation is bad, but I've got no guts if I run away

Nothing to look forward to, but I gotta have the grit to get past this

Gotta control my impulses and judge the distance to the target

What I need is the pride to win

Will I taste sweet victory, or bitter defeat?

Wish I could control the threads of fate

Take this perfect golden time tightly in hand

I'll go at this with the best poker face I can muster

Dragged into a world of illusion,

slipping out of a boundless pressure game,

what does it take to leap across the glorious borderline?

How much will it cost me?

What is it I don't want to let go of?

Trivia

 * This opening actually contains a few scenes that were cut from the anime's version of the Ishvalan flashback. Such scenes include Marcoh struggling to overcome Knox's words after making a stone, Envy watching on in delight after Kimblee slaughters a few soldiers, Scar making the vow to himself for revenge, and every shot is of an omitted scene from the manga. They're all in the same part of the opening, as well.
