[English]

I remember myself back in that moment

When the barren land burned me down

I ran looking at the blue sky

Wanted to fly, in that airplane

I remember myself back in that moment

When the barren land burned me down

I ran looking at the blue sky

Wanted to fly, the airplane airplane

I still can’t believe it

Gwang-Ju native’s aviation madness

Now in the very place of dream that was so high

Flying over the beautiful world

Always when I get on it

Butterflies in my stomach on the first trip to Japan

I still think of it

Cuz that flied my dream

Cuz it made this

Everywhere

Now I’m an ‘Issue Man’ and all the camera flashes

Blessings on the safe arrival

God Bless

I remember myself back in that moment

When the barren land burned me down

I ran looking at the blue sky

I fly more than enough in the Airplane

Some people talk shit about me

Those some people get jealous in loneliness

Don’t give a damn I just laugh at it

Drink Champagne in my Airplane

Over the clouds everyday

Over the clouds are my feelings

Over the clouds, Check it

Chemistry between me and the clouds

Everyday with the clouds

The fun riding the clouds, the fading in with the clouds, you don’t know. Maybe.

Flying for years now

Got a mileage close to a million

It’s time to console you who didn’t make it yet

I’ll give the flight points as a present

Love the airplane mode

Turn off all the concerns, no matter what anyone says

Just continue keeping the first

And look at the sky

Seems quite right from my seat now

I remember myself back in that moment

When the barren land burned me down

I ran looking at the blue sky

I remember those days in this airplane

Some people talk shit about me

Those some people get jealous in loneliness

Don’t give a damn I’m just happy

I made it, I feel it in my Airplane
