SONIC DRIVE is the opening theme for the animated series Sonic X in Japan, and the second single connected to the show. The CD contains the full version of the song, an instrumental, and a bonus track. Unlike the ending theme, this was the only song used to open the show during its run, though two animations sequences were created. The first was from episodes 1 to 26, and the second from episodes 26 to 78.

Lyrics

Japanese Kana

S, O, N, I, C, GO! S, O, N, I, C, GO!
GO, GO, GO, GO, LET'S GO!!

昨日までのルール 今日はただのルーズ
こわして ダントツゴール

走りつづけてないと 他に意味はないと
パンクな哲学なんだ

バイオリズムは 2×(ツーバイ)リズムで
風景は 瞬間に 無数の線
俺を取り巻く風

Inside Outside 攻めて
いっさいがっさい 抜いて
誰ひとりも 何ひとつも
前を 行かせたくはない

Inside Outside GO! SONIC!!
いっさいがっさい Yes! SONIC!!
アブナイヨとHave A Niceは似てる
そう どちらも紙一重なのさ
タイクツ脱ぎ捨てて 今すぐかけだせ

きざめ胸のリズム それが俺のイズム
なんだかムズムズするよ

眠るときは止まる けれど夢で走る
年中 無休のRunaway

今したいこと 明日できること
区別しない 感じたら ビートに乗れ
君を信じるのさ

Takin' Take it 攻めて
徹底的に 抜いて
後ろなんて 見たくはない
ゴールだけ目指して 今だ

Takin' Take it GO! SONIC!!
徹底的に Yes! SONIC!!
握手しようとAction Showは似てる
そう どちらも友情のために
キュークツけとばして 心に従え

Inside Outside 攻めて
いっさいがっさい 抜いて
誰ひとりも 何ひとつも
前を 行かせたくはない

Inside Outside GO! SONIC!!
いっさいがっさい Yes! SONIC!!
アブナイヨとHave A Niceは似てる
そう どちらも紙一重なのさ
タイクツ脱ぎ捨てて 今すぐかけだせ

S, O, N, I, C, GO! S, O, N, I, C, GO!
GO, GO, GO, GO, LET'S GO!!

Japanese Romaji

S, O, N, I, C, GO! S, O, N, I, C, GO!
GO, GO, GO, GO, LET'S GO!!

Kinō made no rūru kyō wa tada no rūzu
Kowashite dantotsu gōru

Hashiri tsudzuketenaito hoka ni imi wa nai to
Panku na tetsugaku nanda

Baiorizumu wa tsūbai rizumu de
Fūkei wa shunkan ni musū no sen
Ore o torimaku kaze

Inside Outside semete
Issaigassai nuite
Dare hitori mo nanihitotsu mo
Mae o ikasetaku wa nai

Inside Outside GO! SONIC!!
Issaigassai Yes! SONIC!!
Abunaiyo to Have A Nice wa niteru
Sō dochira mo kamihitoe na no sa
Taikutsu nugisutete ima sugu kakedase

Kizame mune no rizumu sore ga ore no izumu
Nandaka muzumuzu suru yo

Nemuru toki wa tomaru keredo yume de hashiru
Nenjū mukyū no Runaway

Ima shitai koto ashita dekiru koto
Kubetsu shinai kanjitara bīto ni nore
Kimi o shinjiru no sa

Takin' Take it semete
Tetteiteki ni nuite
Ushiro nante mitaku wa nai
Gōru dake mezashite imada

Takin' Take it GO! SONIC!!
Tetteiteki ni Yes! SONIC!!
Akushushiyou to Action Show wa niteru
Sō dochira mo yūjō no tame ni
Kyūkutsu ketobashite kokoro ni shitagae

Inside Outside semete
Issaigassai nuite
Dare hitori mo nanihitotsu mo
Mae o ikasetaku wa nai

Inside Outside GO! SONIC!!
Issaigassai Yes! SONIC!!
Abunaiyo to Have A Nice wa niteru
Sō dochira mo kamihitoe na no sa
Taikutsu nugisutete ima sugu kakedase

S, O, N, I, C, GO! S, O, N, I, C, GO!
GO, GO, GO, GO, LET'S GO!!

English Translation

S, O, N, I, C, GO! S, O, N, I, C, GO!
GO, GO, GO, GO, LET'S GO!!

Yesterday's rules are simply loose today
The best goal is to break them

If I don't keep running, there's no other meaning
It's a punk philosophy

Biorhythm is a two-time rhythm
The scenery instantly becomes countless lines
The wind envelops me

Inside Outside attack
Surpass any and every thing
I don't want to let anyone or anything go forward

Inside Outside GO! SONIC!!
Any and every thing Yes! SONIC!!
"Watch Out" and "Have A Nice" are similar
That's right, their difference is paper-thin
Throw boredom away and start running right now

The rhythm of a carved heart - that's my -ism
I'm getting a little impatient

I stop when I sleep, but I keep running in my dreams
I'm a nonstop everyday runaway

Don't discriminate between things you want to do today and tomorrow
If you feel it, ride the beat
I believe in you

Takin' Take it attacking
Thoroughly surpassing
I don't want to look back
I'm only striving for my goal now

Takin' Take it GO! SONIC!!
Thoroughly Yes! SONIC!!
"Let's shake hands" and "Action Show" are similar
That's right, both are for the sake of friendship
Reject your constraints and follow your heart

Inside Outside attack
Surpass any and every thing
I don't want to let anyone or anything go forward

Inside Outside GO! SONIC!!
Any and every thing Yes! SONIC!!
"Watch Out" and "Have A Nice" are similar
That's right, their difference is paper-thin
Throw boredom away and start running right now

S, O, N, I, C, GO! S, O, N, I, C, GO!
GO, GO, GO, GO, LET'S GO!!
