28
Agust D Feat. NiiHWA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

나이를 먹어가고
세상을 알아가네
그럼에도 세상을 모르는 게 더 약이었을까

불이 꺼진 방 안과는
전혀 다른 야경을 바라보며
낮게 읊즈린 말
점점 어른이 되나 봐 (봐)
기억이 안 나 (나)
내가 바란 것들은 무엇이었나
나 (나) 이제는 겁나 (나)
내 꿈의 파편들은 어디로 갔나

숨은 쉬는데
심장은 고장이 난 것 같은데
그래 이젠 말야 꿈을 쥐는 게
버겁기만 한 어른이 되는 게 어른이 되는데

Oh no, 스물이 되면 바뀔 줄 알았지
졸업을 하면 바뀔 줄 알았지
Shit 그렇게 렇게 서른이면
그래 그래서 나는 뭐가 바뀌었지

가끔씩 덜컥 이유 없이 눈물이 쏟아져
내가 바란 삶 내가 원한 삶 그저 그런 삶
뭐가 됐든 이젠 상관없지

하루라도 막 걱정 없이
하루라도 막 고민 없이
사는 게 사는 게 사는 게

점점 어른이 되나 봐 (봐)
기억이 안 나 (나)
내가 바란 것들은 무엇이었나
나 (나) 이제는 겁나 (나)
내 꿈의 파편들은 어디로 갔나

숨은 쉬는데 (숨은 쉬는데)
심장은 고장이 난 것 같은데 (난 것 같은데)




그래 이젠 말야 꿈을 쥐는 게
버겁기만 한 어른이 되는 게 (oh) 어른이 되는데 oh no

Overall Meaning

The song "28" by NiiHWA explores the struggles and anxieties that come with growing up and aging. The lyrics reflect on the feeling of being an adult, yet not fully knowing or understanding the complexities of the world. Despite gaining more knowledge and experience with age, the singer suggests that not knowing everything may actually be more comforting.


The song's chorus repeats the line "I guess I'm becoming an adult" while questioning the singer's memories and desires. They wonder what happened to the things they wished for and the pieces of their dreams that seem to have disappeared. The second verse highlights the burdens of adulthood, while the third verse reflects on the inevitability of change and the acceptance of whatever life brings.


Overall, "28" is a thoughtful exploration of the uncertainty and mixed emotions that often accompany aging and growing up. It suggests that even though adulthood can be challenging and heavy, it is still a necessary and valuable part of life.

@@rachaeld8736 nah that's just normal though bts said they will go when they are called ;( They may be sad because they are gonna leave army for some time but they know its like their duty.Its because south Korea and north Korea are still technically at war so they have to serve in case they go into war. other countries also do this when in war with another country. im gonna be so sad when the time comes but i will be waiting for them to return ;(

Yoongi and NiiHWA'S voices mix so well that I never noticed they were two different people

@ayashaaaaa

Yep their voice range is similar. I felt bad to say this but at first I thought this sounds like yoongi (with a hint of some filter) sung it.
