Not over
Gaho Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

처음부터 운명이란 건 없었어
우리에게 주어진 시간은
그 언젠가부터 내 삶은 무너졌어
또 언젠가부터 내가 가진 하나 둘 씩
뺏으면 뺏기는 대로 날 위한 거라며
가르쳐줄래 늦지 않았다고
어떻게 다시 일어서야

내가 날 지켜 낼 수 있는지
대답해줄래 어디로 가야 할지
조각난 나의 시간들을
다시 되돌려 놓을 수 있는지를
모든 게 그런 줄로만 알았어
무엇 하나 바꿀 수 없다고
그 누구였을까 내 앞을 막아선 게
또 누구였을까 다 알고도 숨겼던 게
그리고 지금에 나는 원했던 나일까

가르쳐줄래 늦지 않았다고
어떻게 다시 일어서야
내가 날 지켜 낼 수 있는지
대답해줄래 어디로 가야 할지
조각난 나의 시간들을
다시 되돌려 놓을 수 있는지를 다 끝난걸까

가르쳐줄래 늦지 않았다고
어디서부터 시작해야
내가 날 이겨 낼 수 있는지
대답해줄래 어디로 가야 할지
나 아닌 나로 여기까지

살아왔었던 처음 그 자리로
아직 끝난 게 아니라면

Overall Meaning

The song Not Over by Gaho speaks about the challenges and hardships of life and learning to overcome them. The song begins by addressing the belief in fate as non-existent. It suggests that the time given to us is what we make of it, and that at times, life can crumble before us. The lyrics in the first verse indicate how the singer has lost some of the things they once had and is being taught to accept it all as something meant to happen for them. They are being told that it's not too late to stand up and try again. The chorus asks a series of questions that are haunting and self-reflective, asking if the singer is capable of staying true to themselves and finding direction despite feeling lost.

In the second verse, the song continues to express a feeling of hopelessness and being trapped. It mentions how the singer thought there was nothing they could do to change their current situation and how someone or something blocked their way. However, they admit that they knew who or what it was that stood in their way, but they didn't want to acknowledge it. The final chorus then asks for guidance in how to restart and where to go to gain back lost time. It poses questions about going back to the beginning and whether it's too late to make new beginnings. The song overall speaks about a personal journey of self-discovery and overcoming obstacles that may feel insurmountable at times.
