ENHYPEN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We go! Go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Wake up 이제 눈을 떠
가짜 축복 속에서
I wanna be, wanna be on my way, I bet
네 룰 따윈 집어치워
I wanna be, wanna I, way, I bet
꺼진 줄 알았어, 내 맘속 타던 여름이
달콤한 입술로 날 길들인 이 property
몸에 걸친 luxury, blue pill 같이 나의 눈 가리네 yeah
Tell me, do I get blessed or do I get cursed?
I just want to know
유산같이 건네진 승리, 조명 뒤에 감춰진 비밀
마리오네트의 사각 안에서 춤을 추던 나였어
Don't wanna stay 이제 깨달은 진실이
나를 불러, 멀리서 나를 불러 (let's go)
Just stop, don't tell me what to do
훈장 같은 저주
이 저주 속에 I'll be okay, no pain, no pain, yeah
저 빛 너머의 liar, 우린 현실로 fade in
이 거짓들 사이, 현생 속으로 다이빙
And I walk like a lion 내 역사를 난 making
몰라 정답 따윈, 내 방식대로 가지
Goes on and on
Wake up 이제 눈을 떠
가짜 축복 속에서
I wanna be, wanna be on my way, I bet
날 가두는 경계선
네 룰 따윈 집어치워
I wanna be, wanna I, way, I bet
I don't want, I don't want
영점 짜리 그 정답
이제 난 잊지 않아
날개를 꺾어놓은 그 lie
Don't wanna miss 아직 숨 쉬는 나다움이
나를 불러, 멀리서 나를 불러 (let's go)

The song Blessed-Cursed by the K-pop group ENHYPEN is about navigating the complicated and often conflicting world of fame and success. The lyrics describe the tension between the pressure to conform to the expectations of the industry and the desire to be true to oneself. The title itself suggests this duality - being blessed with success, but cursed by its demands.
The first verse sets the scene, with the singer waking up in a world of "fake blessings" and feeling trapped by the boundaries imposed by others. The chorus questions whether the success that they have achieved is a blessing or a curse - a theme that is echoed throughout the song. The second verse continues with the struggle for authenticity and the feeling of being controlled like a marionette. However, the singer ultimately decides to reject the pressure to conform and choose their own path.
The bridge highlights the idea that success is often accompanied by lies and illusions, but the singer is determined to stay true to themselves, even if it means going against the grain. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the chorus repeating, as if to affirm the decision to break free from the false blessings and self-imposed limitations, and to follow their own way.
