''"When I visited the Pokémon Café while touring Japan, I got so nostalgic. It took me back to my junior high years. So when I got the call to be a part of the 25th anniversary celebration alongside Post Malone and J Balvin, I was elated. The song’s themes—resilience, igniting your inner light—have guided my life and also parallel Pokémon’s story and characters. Pikachu is the evolved form of Pichu, so in the video, you see the younger version of me with Pichu and myself in the present day with Pikachu. We both evolve, yet retain a sense of playfulness."''

Lyrics

(Electric)

In the dark when you feel lost
Wanna be the best but at what cost
If you're gonna stay here
Nothing's ever changing, no
Big world gotta see it all
Gotta get up even when you fall
There's no point in waiting, no

Ohhh
They'll try to bring you down

Ohhhh
But you've got the power now
I know you feel it, feel it
If you believe it then you can
There's no reason that this life can't be electric
Oh I can see it, see it
If you believe it then you can
There's no reason that this life can't be electric

Long road got a ways to go
Took a big step but you're not alone
Cause we got each other
There's so much you'll discover
Headstrong but your heart is stronger
Stay calm walking through the fire
I know you're gonna make it out

Ohhh
They'll try to bring you down
Ohhhh
But you've got the power now

I know you feel it, feel it
If you believe it then you can
There's no reason that this life can't be electric
Oh I can see it, see it
If you believe it then you can
There's no reason that this life can't be electric

Ohhh
They'll try to bring you down
Ohhh
You're electric right now (Electric)

Ohhh
But you've got the power now
You've got the power now

(Electric)
You've got the power now

Wooow yeah

I know you feel it, feel it
If you believe it then you can
There's no reason that this life can't be electric
Oh I can see it, see it
If you believe it then you can
There's no reason that this life can't be electric

Ohhh
They'll try to bring you down
Ohhh
You're electric right now (Electric)
Ohh
But, you've got the power now
Ohhh
You've got the power now
You've got the power now
