Grammar:

• Think I might just break my back

  ➔ Modal verb of possibility: "might"

  ➔ "Might" indicates a possibility or a probability that something could happen. In this case, the speaker is suggesting they could potentially break their back due to the weight of their 'bag'.

• Know I gotta get that

  ➔ Informal contraction: "gotta" (got to)

  ➔ "Gotta" is a colloquial shortening of "got to", expressing obligation or necessity. It means "have to" or "must".

• 우린 우릴 믿지 R double I Z E

  ➔ Reflexive pronoun: "우릴" (ourselves/us)

  ➔ The phrase "우린 우릴 믿지" means "We believe in ourselves." The use of the reflexive pronoun emphasizes the self-reliance and confidence of the group.

• 백번째 But it’s never enough

  ➔ Adverb of frequency: "never"

  ➔ "Never" indicates that something does not happen at any time. In this context, it emphasizes that achieving something, even after a hundred attempts, is still not enough.

• 우리가 뭉치면 못할 게 뭔데

  ➔ Conditional sentence structure: "If...then..."

  ➔ This sentence translates to "What is there that we can't do if we unite?" or "What can't we do if we come together?". It implies that there is nothing they cannot achieve as long as they work as a team.

• 시작 됐어 이미

  ➔ Past perfect tense implication

  ➔ While the explicit tense marker isn't present in "시작 됐어 이미", the adverb "이미" (already) strongly implies that the action of starting has already been completed before the present moment, similar to the meaning conveyed by the past perfect tense. The actual tense is past simple, but the adverb 'already' change the meaning

• Anything you want I can do that

  ➔ Omission of relative pronoun: "that/which"

  ➔ The sentence is a shortened form of "Anything that/which you want, I can do that." The relative pronoun "that" or "which" is omitted in informal speech and lyrics. This is a common feature of spoken English.
