[Part I: Candourlight]

[Verse 1]
Walk into the hallowed halls
With a team that I have balanced
Echoing through mountain walls
Calling out another challenge

Through victory and defeat
Everything was just made plainer
'Til my journey is complete
I won't be the greatest trainer

[Chorus]
I had nothing to my name
When my journey had begun
Now that I have won this game
Now I am the champion

[Bridge]
The very best like no one ever was
That is my cause
So I go like those who came before me
To make the journey

[Verse 2]
We have scrapped and we have bled
But my Pokemon believe me
Always go down the road ahead
For the challenge that will lead me
Another step, let's go, come on
Though the journey leaves us rattled
I still have my Pokemon
I still have the need to battle!

[Verse 1]
Walk into the hallowed halls
With a team that I have balanced
Echoing through mountain walls
Calling out another challenge

Through victory and defeat
Everything was just made plainer
'Til my journey is complete
I won't be the greatest trainer

[Chorus]
I had nothing to my name
When my journey had begun
Now this battle's not the same
Now the journey's almost done!
Now that I have won this game
Now I am the champion

[Part II: Candourlight & Steel (0chromat)]
[Verse 3: Steel (0chromat)]
Once upon a time
I passed every test
Walked the victory road
Thought I was the best
More challenges came
Never was impressed
Still more roads to walk
Always one more test

[Verse 4: Steel (0chromat)]
Can you be the one?
Face the march of time?
All my work undone
Silver mountain climbed
But silence is gold
So no more prattle
Prove your strength to me
Trainer Red wants to battle!

[Chorus: Steel (0chromat)]
With my band, hand in hand
'Cross the land I have travelled
Now I see you and me
Meant to be in this battle
Had your fun, champion?
Just begun! Faced disaster!
Pikachu, I choose you
Time to prove just who is the master!

[Verse 5: Candourlight & Steel (0chromat)]
You've come so far
And yet the world's still wider
Another challenge
For a wide-eyed fighter!
(Wide-eyed fighter!)
The very best, like no one ever was
I remember when that was my cause
Seen it all

[Bridge: Candourlight & Steel (0chromat)]
You stand before me
Out to prove you're worthy
My torch is passed
Only if you can last!
Human, monster
Time to prove our bond here!
Climb the mountain!
Let's see how you will fall!

[Pre-Chorus: Candourlight, Steel (0chromat), & Both]
So no more prattle
Prove your strength to me
Trainer Red wants to battle!

[Chorus: Candourlight, Steel (0chromat), & Both]
With my band, hand in hand
'Cross the land I have travelled
Now I see you and me
Meant to be in this battle
Had your fun, champion?
Just begun! Faced disaster!
Pikachu, I choose you!
Time to prove who's the master!

[Outro: Candourlight, Steel (0chromat), & Both]
If your time is now
If you are the best
Through the roads you've walked
You face one more test
Let this challenge prove
That I/you can be strong
Two champions clash
There's no right or wrong
Trainer Gold/Red wants to battle!
