[English]

I'm not that easy to tame

You should see me under these lights, all my tears turn to ice

That's the sweetest escape

Every time the feelin' kicks in, I might stay through the night

Bet you get it now, rocked that, didn't I?

착각 하지 마 누가 누군지

Whoa, think you're runnin' that? Guess we gunnin' back

You know I walk it, yeah, I talk it, 눈 감고 하나, 둘, 셋 (뛰어)

뛰어, 뛰어

뛰어, 뛰어

So come up with me, I'll take you high

That Prima donna spice up your life

You know I got that shit that you like

So come up with me, run up, uh, jump (뛰어)

Watch me runnin' up the place

I'm already stuntin', and my girls are on the way (뛰어)

Watch me open up the place

Wanna see you bumpin', baby, bouncin' to the bass

Are you not entertained? (No) I ain't gotta explain (no)

I'm with all of my sisters (ah), got 'em goin' insane, yeah (yeah)

You know we on a mission (yeah) all gas, no brakes, yeah (whoo, whoo, whoo)

Breakin' outta the system, breakin' outta this cage, yeah

Bet you get it now, ate that, didn't I?

순간 잊지 마 누가 누군지, oh

Think you runnin' that? Guess we gunnin' back

You know I walk it, yeah, I talk it, 눈 감고 하나, 둘, 셋 (뛰어)

뛰-뛰-뛰어

뛰어, 뛰어

뛰어

So come up with me, I'll take you high

That Prima donna spice up your life

You know I got that shit that you like

So come up with me, run up, uh, jump (뛰어)

Watch me runnin' up the place

I'm already stuntin', and my girls are on the way (뛰어)

Watch me open up the place

Wanna see you bumpin', baby, bouncin' to the bass

Key Grammar Structures

• I'm not that easy to tame

  ➔ Present Simple - Negative Statement

  ➔ The sentence uses the present simple to express a general truth about the speaker's personality. The use of 'that easy' emphasizes the degree of difficulty in controlling her. The verb 'to tame' implies a wild or untamed nature.

• Bet you get it now, rocked that, didn't I?

  ➔ Tag Question

  ➔ This sentence uses a 'tag question' ('didn't I?') to seek confirmation from the listener. It's a rhetorical device implying confidence in having performed well ('rocked that'). The 'bet you' is an informal way of challenging the listener to understand.

• 착각 하지 마 누가 누군지

  ➔ Imperative + Relative Clause

  ➔ This is a Korean sentence meaning 'Don't get the wrong idea about who's who'. '착각 하지 마' (chakgak haji ma) is an imperative ('don't make a mistake'), and '누가 누군지' (nuga nuguunji) is a relative clause specifying what not to mistake – the identities of people.

• You know I walk it, yeah, I talk it, 눈 감고 하나, 둘, 셋 (뛰어)

  ➔ Present Simple + Interjection + Enumeration + Imperative

  ➔ The sentence combines present simple verbs ('walk it', 'talk it') to describe actions, an interjection ('yeah') for emphasis, a numerical enumeration ('하나, 둘, 셋' - one, two, three) creating a countdown, and finally an imperative ('뛰어' - jump) as the climax. '눈 감고' (nun gamgo) means 'with eyes closed'.
