[KAZUHA] Unforgiven, I’m a villain, I’m a

[KAZUHA] Unforgiven, I’m a villain, I’m a

[SAKURA] Remembered, unforgiven

[Ado] Displeasure lingers on your face, wanna shut me up

[Ado] Keep hunting, warriors

[Ado] Your game, causing trouble, such a freak, tired of it

[KAZUHA] Let me tell you about LE SSERAFIM

[KAZUHA] I really dislike the old traditions

[HONG EUNCHAE] Rebellion shining in the darkness

[HONG EUNCHAE] We’re gonna kick, break the rules, and not give up

[KIM CHAEWON] Unforgiven, yes, I was bleeding

[KIM CHAEWON] The fight I lacked strength in, but I keep riding

[HUH YUNJIN] I’m not seeking forgiveness or hoping for it

[HUH YUNJIN] Watch me now, aiming for what’s taboo

[SAKURA] Let’s start, let’s get started

[SAKURA] Carve my story before the future comes

[KAZUHA] If conviction is a crime, I’m not that kind of girl, Cinderella type

[HONG EUNCHAE] Unforgiven, yes, I was bleeding

[HONG EUNCHAE] The fight I lacked strength in, but I keep riding

[Ado] I’m not wishing to be forgiven or hoping for it
