Black
G-Dragon (feat. SKY FERREIRA) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

내 심장의 색깔은 black
시커멓게 타버려 just like that
틈만 나면 유리를 깨부수고
피가 난 손을 보고 난 왜 이럴까 왜

네 미소는 빛나는 gold
하지만 말투는 feel so cold
갈수록 날 너무 닮아가
가끔씩은 karma가 뒤쫓는 것 같아

사랑의 본명은 분명히 증오
희망은 실망과 절망의 부모
어느새 내 얼굴에 드리워진 그림자가
너란 빛에서 생긴 걸 몰랐을까

너와 내 사이에 시간은 멈춘 지 오래
언제나 고통의 원인은 오해
하기야 나도 날 모르는데
네가 날 알아주길 바라는 것 그 자체가 오해

If you ask me what happiness is
When this life is done, maybe when this love is gone
If you ask me what happiness is
You're smile out under the sun, but I'm always on the run

우울한 내 세상의 색깔은 black
처음과 끝은 변해 흑과 백
사람이란 간사해 가끔 헛된 망상에 들어
정말 난 왜 이럴까 왜

그 입술은 새빨간 red
거짓말처럼 새빨갛게
갈수록 둘만의 언어가 서로 가진 color가 안 맞는 것 같아 (yeah)
사랑의 본명은 분명히 증오
희망은 실망과 절망의 부모
어느새 내 얼굴에 드리워진 그림자가
너란 빛에서 생긴 걸 몰랐을까

너를 만나고 남은 건 끝 없는 고뇌
날마다 시련과 시험의 연속 고개
이젠 이별을 노래해 네게 고해
이건 내 마지막 고해

If you ask me what happiness is
When this life is done, maybe when this love is gone
If you ask me what happiness is
You're smile out under the sun, but I'm always on the run

Someday
When it all goes black (uh)
I might want it all back
But I know I can't go back to you (yeah)
Someday
When it all goes black (when it all goes black )
I might want it all back (I might want it all back)
But I know I can't go back to you

돌아갈게 내가 왔던 그 길로 black
너와 내가 뜨거웠던 그 여름은 it's been too long
돌아갈게 내가 왔던 그 길로 black
너와 내가 뜨거웠던 그 여름은 it's been too long

Fade away (fade away) fade away (fade away)
Fade away (fade away) fade away (fade away)




Fade away (fade away) fade away (fade away)
Fade away (fade away) fade away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to G-Dragon feat. BOM's song BLACK are about the colors black and gold symbolizing the duality and contrasting emotions of a relationship. The song suggests that sometimes love can bring intense pain and suffering, where happiness and sorrow are often intertwined. The first verse uses the color black to represent the singer's broken heart, as indicated by the line "내 심장의 색깔은 black" and how it metaphorically burns up and shatters "just like that". The second verse then contrasts this with gold, symbolizing the object of the singer's love and the light that shines from them. In contrast, their attitude is described as feeling "so cold".


The chorus goes on to ask the question "If you ask me what happiness is?" implying that the singer is grappling with the nature of happiness and how it relates to the contrasting colors of their life, while struggling to understand the person they love. They are acutely aware of how love can be a double-edged sword that can inspire intense joy and equally intense sorrow. The song speaks to the human experience of love and the colors that shape our lives.

I don't want to believe that they are dating because, clearly, GD is just very fond of Jennie since her trainee days because he saw the potential in her. (But if it's true, I'll be very happy. Because I know GD help and support her a lot)

I still remember when Jennie was still a trainee, GD was her mentor. He help Jennie through those dark times. And when the collaboration happened, he posted a picture with Jennie in his IG acc and deleted hate comments about her.

When Jennie finally made a debut, GD treat her dinner outside to congratulate her (only her)

When there is a picture, photoshoots of Jennie- he will like it using his private account or even his real account.

When SOLO happened, GD liked every pictures that is related to Jennie's solo.

When the collaboration of Gentle monster and Jennie happened, he liked also the pictures and articles about it.

GD has been enlisted to military that is why we don't know any news about him. But when he came back, Jennie went live in her IG and we saw GD with them along with other YG fam.

I am not pushing them together, I just want people to see how GD helps and supports Jennie even before she became THE IT girl. I love them both!
