N.O
(BTS) Lyrics

Yo 나에겐 BTS
Hey, I am BTS

We dropped second ball, CS
We failed again during the second try, 'CS' (Computer Science) may refer to the education system

We are revolution
We aim to bring change

Then started again
Despite the failure, we didn't give up

좋은 집 (좋은 집) 좋은 차 그런 게 행복일 수 있을까?
Can good houses and cars really bring happiness?

In Seoul to the sky (to the sky)
In Seoul, aiming high

부모님은 정말 행복해질까? (해질까?)
Will our parents really be happy?

꿈 없어졌지 숨 쉴 틈도 없이
We lost our dreams and can't even breathe properly

학교와 집 아니면 피씨방이 다인 쳇바퀴
Our lives consist of nothing but school, home, or internet cafes, and it feels meaningless

같은 삶들을 살며 (살며) 일등을 강요 (강요)
Living the same life, we are forced to be the best

받는 학생은 꿈과 현실 사이의 이중간첩
The students who receive this pressure become the spies between dreams and reality

우릴 공부하는 기계로 만든 건 누구?
Who made us into machines that only study?

일등이 아니면 낙오로 구분
If you're not first, you're labeled a loser

짓게 만든 건 틀에 가둔 건 어른이란 걸 쉽게 수긍
We accept that adults created this environment and forced us into it

할 수밖에 단순하게 생각해도 약육강식 아래
Even if we think simply, there is competition for survival

친한 친구도 밟고 올라서게 만든 게 누구라 생각해 what? (what?)
Who created the environment where even close friends compete and step on each other?

어른들은 내게 말하지 힘든 건 지금뿐이라고
The adults tell me that the hard parts are only temporary

조금 더 참으라고 나중에 하라고
And to bear with it and wait for the future

Everybody say no!
We refuse to accept this reality

더는 나중이란 말로 안돼 (안돼)
We can't rely on the promise of the future anymore

더는 남의 꿈에 갇혀 살지 마
We won't let ourselves be trapped in other people's dreams

We roll (we roll) we roll (we roll) we roll
We keep moving forward

정말 지금이 아니면 안돼 (안돼)
It really has to be now

아직 아무것도 해본 게 없잖아
After all, we haven't done anything yet

Everybody say no!
We stand up against the system

놀고 먹고 싶어 교복 찢고 싶어
We want to enjoy life and eat good food, we don't want to wear uniforms

Make money, good money 벌써 삐딱한 시선
Making money, good money, but people already look at us badly

막연함뿐인 통장 내 불행은 한도초과지
My bank book only gives me undefined anxiety, I already exceeded my limit of unhappiness

공부하는 한숨 공장 계속되는 돌려막기
Sighs of studying became the factory of making more of the same routine

어른들이 하는 고백 너넨 참 편한 거래
The confession that adults make is a comfortable deal for them

분에 넘치게 행복한 거래 그럼 이렇게도 불행한 나는 뭔데
If they can be happy without a limit, then what about my unhappiness?

공부 외엔 대화주제가 없어
There is nothing to talk about except studying

밖엔 나 같은 애가 넘쳐
Outside, there are a lot of people like me

똑같은 꼭두각시 인생 도대체 누가 책임져줘? huh?
Who is responsible for identical and monotonous lives? Huh?
