Lyrics & Translation

[English]

作词 : K$AP RAMA

作曲 : PATEKO

When I open my eyes, the morning sun shines through the clouds

But its warmth feels too harsh, so I hide under my blanket

Back in my childhood days, dreaming without a care

I remember those times now

Pretend you don’t know who I’ve become

This crumpled-up today, tomorrow that’ll stay the same

I’m not the type to just accept it all

I don’t need regrets

I’ve still got dreams to chase

Sweat pours under the blazing sun

Even when it blinds my eyes

There’s always the shade of a green tree

No matter how high I climb, the end stays hidden

Even when I want to collapse, there are people

Who’ll walk this path with me

They’ll always be there

I lie to myself, saying there’s still romance

But truthfully, I’m drowning in fear

Living while hiding everything

Your judging eyes, your fake worries

I’m not the one to swallow those

I don’t need regrets

I’ve still got dreams to chase

Sweat pours under the blazing sun

Even when it blinds my eyes

There’s always the shade of a green tree

No matter how high I climb, the end stays hidden

Even when I want to collapse, there are people

Who’ll walk this path with me

They’ll always be there

Truth is, there were never any real obstacles

It’s okay to let tears fall

We’ll keep running forward

Sweat pours under the blazing sun

Even when it blinds my eyes

There’s always the shade of a green tree

No matter how high I climb, the end stays hidden

Even when I want to collapse, there are people

Who’ll walk this path with me

They’ll always be there

주저앉고 싶을때에도 내 꿈을

함께 걸어주는 사람들이

꼭 있을테니까

作词 : K$AP RAMA

作曲 : PATEKO

눈 뜨면 날 비추는

구름사이 저 아침햇살이

따갑게만 느껴져 이불속에 숨고선

아무것도 모른채 꿈꾸던 내 어린시절

그때 생각이 나네

지금의 날 모른척 해줘

축처진 오늘도

같을 내일 하루도

받아들일 내가 아니란말야

후회따윈 필요없어

난 아직 꿈꿀거니까

뜨거운 태양앞에 쏟아지는 땀들이

내 눈앞을 가리려 애써도

푸르른 나무의 그늘이 있잖아

오르고 올라도 끝이 보이지 않아

주저앉고 싶을때에도 내 꿈을

함께 걸어주는 사람들이

꼭 있을테니까

낭만 있다고 나를 속이며 사실 말야

불안해 미칠 거 같아

다 숨기며 사는 거잖아

너의 그 시선도

거짓 섞인 걱정도

받아드릴 내가 아니란 말야

후회따윈 필요없어

난 아직 꿈꿀거니까

뜨거운 태양앞에 쏟아지는 땀들이

내 눈앞을 가리려 애써도

푸르른 나무의 그늘이 있잖아

오르고 올라도 끝이 보이지 않아

주저앉고 싶을때에도 내 꿈을

함께 걸어주는 사람들이

꼭 있을테니까

사실은 그 어떤 장애물도 없었어

눈물따윈 흘려도 돼

우린 더 달릴테니까

뜨거운 태양앞에 쏟아지는 땀들이

내 눈앞을 가리려 애써도

푸르른 나무의 그늘이 있잖아

오르고 올라도 끝이 보이지 않아

주저앉고 싶을때에도 내 꿈을

함께 걸어주는 사람들이

꼭 있을테니까
