Never Give Up
B.A.P. - Bang Yong Guk & Zelo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

학교를 뒤로한 채
우린 학원으로 뛰어
이미 다 알고 있는데
왜 자꾸 또 가르쳐 Uh
선생님 말씀은 하품만이
칠판이란 도화지에는 낙서만이
차라리 돈백만원짜리 과외를 택해
친구와의 우정보단 성적뿐인 체계
시험이라는 압박 대학이란 부담감
쌓여만 가는 스트레스
엄마 아빠는 알까
건들건들 걷는 게 난 좋은데
왜 반듯반듯한 자세만을 원해
내 꿈은 마이크 쥐고
랩 하는 건데
오늘도 펜을 쥐고 수학공식을 적네
Yeah 학교 안에서
우리가 배운 건
꿈을 잃는 법과 늘 포기하는 법
Do whut u like luv whut u do
네 자신에게 물어봐
whut u wanna do
Never give up
힘을 내 꿈을 향해
Never give up
일어나 일어나
너라면 할 수가 있어
wake up wake up
걱정 마 잘 될거야
Never give up
너니까 그게 너니까
니자신을 믿어봐
Never give up
I\'m back in da school back
back in da school
건들건들 I\'m back in da school
i\'m back in da school back
back in da school
건들건들 I\'m back in da school
지겨운 얘긴 STOP My love story
내 맘을 전할 수 있을까
끝없는 고민
오늘도 매점 가서 빵을 하나 샀어
고작 해줄 수 있는 게
이게 다라서
이걸 받으면 네가 좋아할까
아님 받지 않고 반대로 돌아갈까
난 백설공주 옆을 맴도는 난쟁이
별볼일 없는 나지만
너만 지킬 수 있어 My Baby
너와 마주칠 때면
괜시리 센척하는걸
친구 녀석들과의
대화에는 관심이 없어
오직 너만 보는걸 Ma baby
미술시간엔 널 그리고 싶고
음악시간엔 널 위한
노랠 만들고 싶어
이끌려 넌 N극 난 S극
이 설렘은 유리수처럼 끝이 안보여
Never give up
힘을 내 꿈을 향해
Never give up
일어나 일어나
너라면 할 수가 있어
wake up wake up
걱정 마 잘 될거야
Never give up
너니까 그게 너니까
니 자신을 믿어봐
Never give up
I\'m back in da school back
back in da school
건들건들 I\'m back in da school
i\'m back in da school back
back in da school
건들건들 I\'m back in da school
Never give up
힘을 내 꿈을 향해
Never give up
일어나 일어나
너라면 할 수가 있어
wake up wake up
걱정 마 잘 될거야
Never give up
너니까 그게 너니까
니 자신을 믿어봐
Never give up
Clap your hands everybody
Everybody clap your hands
Left left to right right
right to left Everybody
just clap your hands
Clap your hands everybody
Everybody clap your hands
Left left to right




right right to left
Put your hands up in the sky
