마라톤 마라톤
삶은 길어 천천히 해
42.195
그 끝엔 꿈의 낙원이 가득해
하지만 진짜 세상은
약속과는 달라
너, 목적지도 없어
아무 풍경도 없어
숨이 턱까지 넘칠 때
You need to, you need to
멈춰서도 괜찮아
아무 이유도 모르는 채 달릴 필요 없어
꿈이 없어도 괜찮아
잠시 행복을 느낄 네 순간들이 있다면
멈춰서도 괜찮아
이젠 목적도 모르는 채 달리지 않아
꿈이 없어도 괜찮아
네가 내뱉는 모든 호흡은 이미 낙원에
우린 꿈을 남한테서 꿔 (빚처럼)
위대해져야 한다 배워 (빛처럼)
너의 dream 사실은 짐
미래만이 꿈이라면
내가 어젯밤 침대서 꾼 건 뭐?
꿈의 이름이 달라도 괜찮아
다음달에 노트북 사는 거
아니면 그냥 먹고 자는 거
암것도 안 하는데 돈이 많은 거
꿈이 뭐 거창한 거라고
그냥 아무나 되라고
We deserve a life
뭐가 크건 작건 그냥 너는 너잖어
하지만 진짜 세상은
약속과는 달라
우린 달려야 해 밟아야 해
신호탄을 쏘면
너, 목적지도 없어
아무 풍경도 없어
숨이 턱까지 넘칠 때
You need to, you need to
멈춰서도 괜찮아
아무 이유도 모르는 채 달릴 필요 없어
꿈이 없어도 괜찮아
잠시 행복을 느낄 내 순간들이 있다면
멈춰서도 괜찮아
이젠 목적도 모르는 채 달리지 않아
꿈이 없어도 괜찮아
네가 내뱉는 모든 호흡은 이미 낙원에
I don't have a dream
꿈을 꾸는 게 때론 무섭네 그냥 이렇게
살아가는 게 살아남는 게 이게 나에겐 작은 꿈인데
꿈을 꾸는 게 꿈을 쥐는 게 숨을 쉬는 게 때론 버겁네
누군 이렇게 누군 저렇게 산다면서 세상은 내게 욕을 퍼붓네
Ah yeah 세상은 욕할 자격이 없네
Yeah 꿈을 꾸는 법이 무엇인지
Yeah 가르쳐 준 적도 없기에
꾸며 낸 꿈이기에 눈물의 잠꼬대
악몽에서 깨워내 널 위해
이젠 매일 웃어보자고 저 낙원에서
멈춰서도 괜찮아
이젠 목적도 모르는 채 달리지 않아
꿈이 없어도 괜찮아
네가 내뱉는 모든 호흡은 이미 낙원에
Stop runnin' for nothin' my friend
Now 어리석은 경주를 끝내
Stop runnin' for nothin' my friend
네가 내뱉는 모든 호흡은 이미 낙원에
Stop runnin' for nothin' my friend
다 꾸는 꿈 따윈 없어도 돼
Stop runnin' for nothin' my friend
너를 이루는 모든 언어는 이미 낙원에
"Paradise" by BTS is an empowering song about chasing your dreams and finding happiness in the present moment. The first verse talks about life being a marathon, and the journey being long and slow. At the end of that journey, the lyrics mention a paradise filled with dreams. However, the real world is different from what people promise, and one has to run and step on the gas when the signal shoots up. Although there is no specific destination, people still need to run and breathe until they reach their goal.

우린 달려야 해 밟아야 해 신호탄을 쏘면
We must keep running and stepping forward, and if need be, shoot signals to get others' attention and keep moving.
너, 목적지도 없어 아무 풍경도 없어
If you do not have a particular destination, it is okay because the journey will be scenic nonetheless.
숨이 턱까지 넘칠 때 You need to, you need to 멈춰서도 괜찮아
When feeling too overwhelmed, it's okay to stop and take a break for a moment.
아무 이유도 모르는 채 달릴 필요 없어
You don't have to have reasons for doing things, just taking things slowly can be enough.
꿈이 없어도 괜찮아 잠시 행복을 느낄 네 순간들이 있다면
It's okay if you don't have a dream because you can still be happy by experiencing fleeting moments of joy.

우린 꿈을 남한테서 꿔 (빚처럼) 위대해져야 한다 배워 (빛처럼)
We must dream together (like a debt) and learn to become greater (like a light).
너의 dream 사실은 짐 미래만이 꿈이라면
Your dream could be a burden if it is only meant for the future.
내가 어젯밤 침대서 꾼 건 뭐? 꿈의 이름이 달라도 괜찮아
Even if the name of your dream changes, it's okay because dreams can be unclear and uncertain.
다음달에 노트북 사는 거 아니면 그냥 먹고 자는 거
Whether the dream is to buy a laptop next month, or just being able to eat and sleep, both are important.
암것도 안 하는데 돈이 많은 거 꿈이 뭐 거창한 거라고
Dreaming of having a lot of money when not doing anything remarkable or grand is pointless.
그냥 아무나 되라고 We deserve a life
There's no need to conform or compare your dreams with others, everyone deserves to dream as they wish and live life.
뭐가 크건 작건 그냥 너는 너잖어
You are you, regardless of the size of your dreams.
잠시 행복을 느낄 내 순간들이 있다면
If there are moments when you can feel happy, even if only brief, it's enough.
I don't have a dream
It's okay if you don't have a dream right now or if you haven't found it yet.
꿈을 꾸는 게 때론 무섭네 그냥 이렇게 살아가는 게 살아남는 게 이게 나에겐 작은 꿈인데
Sometimes, dreaming can be scary, and it's okay to live life as it is and still survive that way. This simple way of living is an equally great dream.
꿈을 꾸는 게 꿈을 쥐는 게 숨을 쉬는 게 때론 버겁네
Dreaming and holding onto a dream can be difficult, and at times, it can be hard to breathe.
누군 이렇게 누군 저렇게 산다면서 세상은 내게 욕을 퍼붓네 Ah yeah 세상은 욕할 자격이 없네
When people express how they live and insult the way you live, they are not worthy of criticizing how you live because everyone's lives are different.
Yeah 꿈을 꾸는 법이 무엇인지 Yeah 가르쳐 준 적도 없기에
There's no correct method in dreaming, and no one has ever taught how to dream.
꾸며 낸 꿈이기에 눈물의 잠꼬대
These dreams that are crafted become a source of babbling tears.
악몽에서 깨워내 널 위해 이젠 매일 웃어보자고 저 낙원에서
Wake up from the nightmare and start living a dreamy life that lets you smile every day from paradise.
Stop runnin' for nothin' my friend
Stop running without purpose, my friend.
Now 어리석은 경주를 끝내 다 꾸는 꿈 따윈 없어도 돼
It's time to stop racing foolishly, and you don't need to have a dream to live life.
너를 이루는 모든 언어는 이미 낙원에
All the languages that make you are already in paradise.

@earlgreymilktae
a couple of minutes ago, my dad walked into my room and said “you’re always in your bed just texting. my god, do something!” and then he left and I just sat up on my bed and stared at the door, and then I laid back down and cried. I’m only 13, but I am so scared of having to grow up and face bigger responsibilities and I have no idea what career I want to pursue. I like to be prepared, but having no clue what my future will be like scares me so, so much.
my dad doesn’t ask me how my day went. he just tells me to get the top scores and shows me videos of talented singers or articles about kids my age doing cool things. it just makes me feel more lost and insecure about my own life.
I really look up to BTS. they talk about real things, and as I cried I couldn’t help but think about this song’s message.
“i don’t have a dream. sometimes, dreaming is scary... breathing, sometimes these things are hard. that guy did that, that girl did that, the world tells me as it bashes me. yeah, the world has no right to bash you... it’s alright to stop. don’t run without knowing where you’re going anymore.”
these lyrics really spoke to me and they soothed me so much. thank you BTS for encouraging me to get through another day 💜 your music means so much to me
Update: Since posting this comment, I’ve received a lot of replies and it’s comforting to know I’m not alone in feeling this way, so thank you. But also, I’ve had a conference @ school and my mom told me that my dad does ask her how I’m doing, and she also told my dad about the other things I brought up. Additionally, I think I‘ll become a psychiatrist in the future. Not sure yet but at least I have an idea lol
Update 2: I recently got onto my highschool’s competitive dance team, and I’m really excited about it but my dad told me, “Dance is a waste of time, why not just study more so you can become a doctor?” and honestly I’m so over it. Don’t let others decide your future if it’s not what you want. Just do what makes you happy (as long as it’s not hurting you or anyone else, ofc)!
@amalmangi1945
i can relate so much to that im 13 as well but ive learnt ot just get through it with my day and let the future come to me instead of going to it
people say im youmg to be worrying about this and although it may sound a bit wrong you cant live your whole childhood waiting to be a grown up running away from it or just worrying about it you have to be prepared and you have to face it
you think a flower dies when its almost winter? no it goes through all that burden nd then becomes a beautifull blooming flower in spring its not easy but it doesnt mean u should worry about it to or become depressed about it
the present if a gift the future will be a gitft and the past was a gift
use your past gifts to get ready for ur future gifts
live wisely and heppily if it costs ur happiness iys too much belive me if its your dream its enough it is your time dont waste it if its depression face it like how the flowers face winter and when you reach the light you will find the meaning of life and ur not alone on that
it hard to give up for me because im curious about what my future would look like and if i give up i wil have no future if i do it bad my furutre will be bad so i always try to make sure the end reult will be positive
one last thing
forget what hurt you
but never forget what it taught you
the light will shine brightest when you think its gone darker which will encourage you
@callmeDJANGO8
Indian/Asian Armys can relate a lot to this song because we are always pressurized by our parents, teachers, friends, society to study harder and harder!
Education in India is hella competitive. Like if you score a 99, there will be thousand more students who scored a 99!
This song comforts me! Its tells me 'you don't have to JUST STUDY HARD to achieve your success' .... 'just relax and see where your life takes you and be happy'
'do what YOU wanna do'
'Just LIVE IN THE MOMENT'
Edit: Okay I need to clear things up for some people in the replies. I KNOW INDIA IS IN ASIA! I'm not american for god's sake, I never scored anything below 90 in geography ever. There are two reasons why I wrote India & Asia separately :-
1) Some people (Americans mostly) think that Asians are either Chinese, Japanese or Korean
2) I wanted to make things clear that I'm Indian,
And education in India particularly is a lot competitive because population density in India is 450+ people per Km², while in China its 150+, & in USA its 35 people per Km². That means if there's a solitary college nearby, more than 100 students will compete to get into that in India. While only 10 will compete for that in the US. Same is the case for JOBS. We have a saying in my country that "you can find engineers in every house in India" (out of which 50% of them are unemployed) and its a fact, not an exaggeration. And thats because "THEY WERE RUNNING FOR NOTHING!"
And to end my ted talk I just want to say that, YOU GOTTA WORK HARD in life, no doubt about that! But make sure you do WHAT YOU WANT or WHAT YOU ARE GOOD AT rather than following others or listening to people's opinion. Just like the BTS members did. Most of their parents were againt their will to become a singer/dancer/idol but since they were determined to it & worked hard for it, THEY SUCCEEDED ✅
So the conclusion is....
STOP RUNNING FOR NOTHING MY FRIEND 💜 (don't let others decide your future/career)
