Control Resonant: All Correct Karaoke Lyrics for the Be What You Want to Be Trophy

One karaoke sequence in Control Resonant determines whether you earn the “Be What You Want to Be” trophy. During The Party Won’t Stop, Dylan performs at an Altered karaoke machine, with each incorrect lyric costing a trapped partygoer their life. Choose the right rhyming option for all nine prompts, and the trophy unlocks when the quest ends.

Quick answer: The lyrics, in sequence, are 1) Gasoline, 2) Stress, 3) So Fleeting, 4) Too Long, 5) Move, 6) Fear, 7) Everything, 8) Higher and Higher, 9) Shout. Choosing them all keeps everyone alive.

What you need before starting The Party Won’t Stop

Find the quest in the western West Incursion Zone, close to West Supply Route Station and west of Central. Since the apartment hosting the party has no ground-level entrance, you’ll need a traversal ability to get there. Go to the map’s corner and activate the side story at the “Singing reported?” marker.

Use either of these movement abilities to get onto the roof across from the apartment, then make your way inside:

Shift, from The Incursion Fault main quest.
Reach, from The Subway Fault main quest.

Although the trophy is listed as missable, you can still earn it later. Should a dancer die, reload a save from shortly before that point and replay the song. If you come back later, look toward the end of the Load list for post-mission checkpoints.

How to reach the apartment party

Start at West Supply Route and travel into the West Incursion Zone’s southwest area; from there, head northwest. Beside the apartment’s locked entrance, you’ll find a body. Contact Zoe over the radio to report it.

Cross to the road facing the apartment, then use Shift or Reach to get onto the roof above it. Follow the way forward to a construction site on your right. Enter, turn right, and get past the enemies.

Once you reach the apartment roof, jump up with Elevate and enter through the doorway. Report the additional bodies inside to Zoe, then follow the mysterious recording as it plays through the apartment.

Go down the stair flights until you spot a neon-purple doorway to your left. It leads into the party room, where the glowing machine keeps the worn-out partygoers dancing without end.

Speak with the dancers, who beg you to stop the machine, then interact with the microphone on the table. The objective updates to “Sing” and the mini-game begins.

The nine correct karaoke lyrics

After the machine sings a lyric, a dialogue wheel presents several word choices. A right answer saves a dancer; a wrong one kills someone and costs you the trophy. Use the exact matching word listed below for each line instead of relying on how it sounds.

Karaoke Prompt 1: "...gasoline" — The first prompt: choose "…gasoline" on the right to open the song. Image: Remedy Entertainment / via @Gosunoob

#	Song line	Correct lyric	Input
1	It’s burning hot like…	Gasoline	Right
2	Only song and dance, no worries or…	Stress	Left
3	In this moment that is…	So Fleeting	Right
4	A song that soon, before…	Too Long	Up
5	If you didn’t know how to…	Move	Left
6	You let go of all pain and trouble and…	Fear	Down
7	Bracing you for…	Everything	Right
8	It lifts you up…	Higher and Higher	Up
9	Dance and dream, scream and…	Shout	Right

Several wheels throw in close decoys. Pick Stress over “work,” Too Long over “too true” and “too much,” Move over “party,” “dance,” and “live,” Fear over “money,” “joy,” and “hope,” Everything over “the worst,” “impact,” and “tough times,” and Higher and Higher over “more and more,” “lower and lower,” and “less and less.” The final prompt only asks you to “Shout” for the closing vocal.

Confirming the trophy and rewards

Singing “Shout” brings the song to a close and sets the dancers free. The Party Won’t Stop is marked complete, and you earn the Be What You Want to Be trophy immediately, provided no partygoer died. If a dancer fell while the song was playing, go back to an earlier checkpoint and repeat the sequence with the correct words.

Completing the quest awards these two items even if you don’t earn the trophy:

Untapped Bar Blade — an artifact blueprint. Create the Bar Blade at The Gap’s formation altar; it slowly regenerates health while a Summon is nearby.
Varsity Jacket — a top-layer outfit you can equip at any Wardrobe in a friendly area.

Once the trophy notification clears and the two rewards appear in your inventory, the quest is fully done. There is nothing left to interact with in the room, so you can head back out and pick up the Varsity Jacket at a Wardrobe whenever you like.
