  4. Come on

  6. Check

    Check

  7. 반드시 쪽으로 갈라지는 갈래 길중

    On this path that splits in two, I must choose

  8. 하나만을 택해야 하는 나는 고민

    Caught in thought, I must decide which way to go

  9. 머리 깎는 중처럼 순간 순간

    Like a moment where I can't get my hair cut

  10. 신중에 신중을 기해 집중

    Carefully weighing every moment, focused

  11. 대충 했다가는 큰일

    If I rush, it could lead to a big mess

  12. 심한 고충 목이 타고 피가 마르는군

    It's a heavy burden, my throat's dry, blood's running low

  13. 돌려 일단 베버리지 아가씨 후렌치 바닐라

    Take a breath, first things first, beverage lady, French vanilla

  14. 마음속에 고이 가꾸어진 작은 flower

    In your heart, a little flower nurtured with care

  15. flower에 밝은 빛을 비춰

    Shine a bright light on that flower

  16. 밤새 뒤척이던 이제 모두 잊어

    Forget all the restless nights I spent turning

  17. 그냥 개는 그렇게 짖으라면 이젠 니가 winner

    Just let the dogs bark, you’re the winner now

  18. 살만하니까 세상은 만들어졌다

    Life exists because the world keeps turning

  19. 꿈은 그대로 그렇게 간직해뒀다

    I’ve kept your dreams safe, just as they are

  20. 기회를 틈타 부딪혀

    Seize the chance, clash head-on

  21. 누구든 거슬리면 그냥 바로 소리쳐, 닥쳐

    If anyone bothers you, just shout, 'shut up!'

  22. 뒷심 부족 흥분 족족 뒤로 똑똑

    Losing momentum, excitement fading, still sharp

  23. 하지만 감정 다스리기 실패 결국 자폭

    But when I lose control of my feelings, I self-destruct

  24. 따도 끝을 보고 꼴아도 끝을 봐야

    Whether I win or lose, I must see it through

  25. 직성이 풀려 아니면

    With resolve set, it’s all or nothing for me

  26. 좋은 없어도 그건 두고

    Even when nothing special happens, it's something to watch

  27. 승리를 위해 하나씩 걸어갈

    A path of victories, one step at a time

  28. 볼일 없는 놈들이 위에 있는 별일

    It’s quite a thing that the insignificant rise above

  29. 땅에 아이러니 너무도 오래 걸릴

    In this land, irony takes far too long

  30. 노래에 우리들의 맘을 담아 그대 곁에

    This song carries our hearts to your side

  31. 노래에 우리들의 맘을 담아 그대 곁에

    This song carries our hearts to your side

  32. 노래에 우리들의 맘을 담아 그대 곁에

    This song carries our hearts to your side

  33. 노래에 우리들의 맘을 담아 그대 곁에

    This song carries our hearts to your side

  34. 음악에 미쳐 모든 바쳐

    Lost in music, I dedicate everything to it

  35. 만든 노래들을 이제 모두 그대에게 바쳐

    Now I dedicate all my songs to you

  36. 미쳐 생각지 못한 곳에서 상처 받아

    In madness, I’ve found wounds in unexpected places

  37. 울고 있는 아이가 외로움에 지쳐

    A child in tears is worn down by loneliness

  38. 울고 있을 때는 누굴 부르지

    When you cry, who do you call?

  39. 우리가 누구지 (갖고 있다 뒤에 뺏겼다)

    Who are we? (Got it, then lost it)

  40. 새장 속에서 아름답게 노래하는 새보다

    A bird singing beautifully in a cage

  41. 자유롭게 노래하는 참새가 왕일세

    Is less of a king than a sparrow singing freely

  42. 하면 되는 거지 그런 거지

    Just do it, that’s how it goes, right?

  43. 즐기며 사는 거지 그런 거지

    Live for pleasure, that’s how it goes, right?

  44. 한번 피고 지는 인생 그런 거지

    Life blooms and fades just like that, right?

  45. 200년을 사니까 그런 거지

    And since we can't live for 200 years, that’s how it goes, right?

  46. 하면 되는 거지 그런 거지

    Just do it, that’s how it goes, right?

  47. 즐기며 사는 거지 그런 거지

    Live for pleasure, that’s how it goes, right?

  48. 한번 피고 지는 인생 그런 거지

    Life blooms and fades just like that, right?

  49. 200년을 사니까 그런 거지

    And since we can't live for 200 years, that’s how it goes, right?

  50. 인생이란 내가 살아가는 (왜)

    Life is what I make of it (why)

  51. 남들보다 낫기 위해 노력하는 (oh)

    Striving to be better than others (oh)

  52. 현금이란 항상 돌고도는 (왜)

    Cash always circulates (why)

  53. 나가기 위해 니가 모아가는 (oh)

    Accumulating to keep on thriving (oh)

  54. 사랑이란 항상 감싸주는 (oh)

    Love is always about embracing (oh)

  55. 그녀의 모든 언제나 이해하는 (왜)

    Understanding all of her, forever (why)

  56. 친구라는 영원히 변치 않는 (oh)

    Friendship is something that never changes (oh)

  57. 어떤 어려움이라도 의지하는 (왜)

    Depending on each other through any trouble (why)

  58. 세상 내가 살아와

    In this world, I have lived

  59. 지금까지 살아오며 내가 힘들었던

    And remembering the difficulties I've faced

  60. 나를 알아주지 않는 사람들과 만나

    Meeting those who don't acknowledge me

  61. 타협해야 하는 이겨내는

    Compromising and overcoming each challenge

  62. 이렇게 클럽에서 노는 너와

    This is me partying in the club, you and me

  63. 어떤 간섭받지 않는 이제

    Unfettered by anyone now, it’s just me

  64. 어디 가든 뭐가 되든 어찌 됐던

    Wherever I go, whatever I become, it’s me

  65. 이제 SDT

    Now it’s me, SDT

  66. 하면 되는 거지 그런 거지

    Just do it, that’s how it goes, right?

  67. 즐기며 사는 거지 그런 거지

    Live for pleasure, that’s how it goes, right?

  68. 한번 피고 지는 인생 그런 거지

    Life blooms and fades just like that, right?

  69. 200년을 사니까 그런 거지 (check it)

    And since we can't live for 200 years, that’s how it goes, right? (check it)

  70. 하면 되는 거지 그런 거지 (come on)

    Just do it, that’s how it goes, right? (come on)
