24/7 매번 반복되는 매 순간 (매 순간)
어중간 (어중간) 한 내 삶 (한 내 삶)
20대의 백수는 내일이 두려워 참
웃기지 어릴 땐 뭐든 가능할거라 믿었었는데
하루를 벌어 하루를 사는 게 빠듯하단 걸 느꼈을 때
내내 기분은 컨트롤 비트, 계속해서 다운되네
매일매일이 Ctrl C, Ctrl V 반복되네
답답해 소리쳐도 허공의 메아리
내일은 오늘보다는 뭔가 다르길
난 애원할 뿐야
니 꿈을 따라가 like breaker
부서진대도 oh better
니 꿈을 따라가 like breaker
무너진대도 oh 뒤로 달아나지마 never
해가 뜨기 전 새벽이 가장 어두우니까
먼 훗날에 넌 지금의 널 절대로 잊지 마
지금 니가 어디 서 있든 잠시 쉬어가는 것일 뿐
포기하지 마 알잖아
너무 멀어지진 마 tomorrow
멀어지진 마 tomorrow
너무 멀어지진 마 tomorrow
우리가 그토록 기다린 내일도 어느새 눈을 떠보면 어제의 이름이 돼
내일은 오늘이 되고 오늘은 어제가 되고 내일은 어제가 되어 내 등 뒤에 서있네
삶은 살아지는 게 아니라 살아내는 것
그렇게 살아내다가 언젠간 사라지는 것
멍 때리다간 너, 쓸려가 if you ain't no got the guts, trust
어차피 다 어제가 되고 말 텐데 하루하루가 뭔 의미겠어
행복해지고, 독해지고 싶었는데 왜 자꾸 약해지기만 하지 계속
나 어디로 가, 여기로 가고 저기로 가도 난 항상 여기로 와
그래 흘러가긴 하겠지 어디론가, 끝이 있긴 할까 이 미로가
갈 길은 먼데 왜 난 제자리니
답답해 소리쳐도 허공의 메아리
내일은 오늘보다는 뭔가 다르길
난 애원할 뿐야
니 꿈을 따라가 like breaker
부서진대도 oh better
니 꿈을 따라가 like breaker
무너진대도 oh 뒤로 달아나지마 never
해가 뜨기 전 새벽이 가장 어두우니까
먼 훗날에 넌 지금의 널 절대로 잊지 마
지금 니가 어디 서 있든 잠시 쉬어가는 것일 뿐
포기하지 마 알잖아
너무 멀어지진 마 tomorrow
Tomorrow, 계속 걸어요
멈추기엔 우린 아직 너무 어려
Tomorrow, 문을 열어
닫기엔 많은 것들이 눈에 보여
어두운 밤이 지나면 밝은 아침도 있듯이, 알아서
내일이 오면 밝은 빛이 비추니, 걱정은 하지 말아줘
이건 정지가 아닌 니 삶을 쉬어가는 잠시 동안의 일시 정지

The lyrics encourage listeners not to give up on their dreams despite failing or being hurt.

The phrase "니 꿈을 따라가 like breaker" (follow your dreams like a breaker) is a reminder to listeners of the importance of determination and confidence in achieving one's goals. The lyrics conclude with the message that tomorrow is just another day and that even after the darkness, the morning light will shine brightly. The song is a reminder to never lose hope or give up, even in the face of challenges or setbacks.

우리가 그토록 기다린 내일도 어느새 눈을 떠보면 어제의 이름이 돼
The tomorrow we've been waiting for becomes yesterday's name before we know it
내일은 오늘이 되고 오늘은 어제가 되고 내일은 어제가 되어 내 등 뒤에 서있네
Tomorrow becomes today, today becomes yesterday, and tomorrow stands behind me
삶은 살아지는 게 아니라 살아내는 것
Life is not about coming back to life, but about surviving
그렇게 살아내다가 언젠간 사라지는 것
Living like that and eventually disappearing
멍 때리다간 너, 쓸려가 if you ain't no got the guts, trust
If you space out, you'll get swept away, if you ain't got the guts, trust
어차피 다 어제가 되고 말 텐데 하루하루가 뭔 의미겠어
Anyway, everything will become yesterday, so what's the meaning of each day?
행복해지고, 독해지고 싶었는데 왜 자꾸 약해지기만 하지 계속
I wanted to be happy and independent, why do I keep getting weaker?
나 어디로 가, 여기로 가고 저기로 가도 난 항상 여기로 와
Wherever I go, whether here or there, I always come back here
그래 흘러가긴 하겠지 어디론가, 끝이 있긴 할까 이 미로가
Yes, it's going to flow somewhere, does this maze have an end?
Tomorrow, 계속 걸어요
Tomorrow, keep walking
멈추기엔 우린 아직 너무 어려
We're still too young to stop
Tomorrow, 문을 열어
Tomorrow, open the door
닫기엔 많은 것들이 눈에 보여
Too many things appear to close
어두운 밤이 지나면 밝은 아침도 있듯이, 알아서
As the dark night passes, there will be a bright morning, so don't worry.
내일이 오면 밝은 빛이 비추니, 걱정은 하지 말아줘
When tomorrow comes, the bright light will shine, so don't worry
이건 정지가 아닌 니 삶을 쉬어가는 잠시 동안의 일시 정지
This isn't a stop, it's just a temporary halt to give your life a rest
엄지를 올리며 니 자신을 재생해 모두 보란 듯이
Thumbs up and regenerate yourself, as if everyone is watching
포기하지 마, 알잖아
Don't give up, you know
