Lauren Babic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can call me artist (Artist)
You can call me idol (Idol)
아님 어떤 다른 (다른) 뭐라 해도 I don't care
(I don't care)

I'm proud of it (Proud of it)
난 자유롭네 (자유롭네)
No more irony (Irony)
나는 항상 나였기에

손가락질 해, 나는 전혀 신경 쓰지 않네
나를 욕하는 너의 그 이유가 뭐든 간에
I know what I am (I know what I am)
I know what I want (I know what I want)
I never gon' change (I never gon' change)
I never gon' trade
(Trade off)

뭘 어쩌고 저쩌고 떠들어대셔
Talkin', talkin', talkin'
I do what I do, 그니까 넌 너나 잘하셔
You can't stop me lovin' myself

Hoo, hoo
얼쑤 좋다
You can't stop me lovin' myself
Damn, hoo, hoo
지화자 좋다
You can't stop me lovin' myself

Oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh ooh oh oh oh
Oh oh ooh oh
덩기덕 쿵더러러 얼쑤

Oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh ooh oh oh oh
Oh oh ooh oh
덩기덕 쿵더러러 얼쑤

Face off 마치 오우삼, ay
Top star with that spotlight, ay
때론 슈퍼히어로가 돼
돌려대 너의 Anpanman

Wow 24시간이 적지
헷갈림, 내겐 사치
Wow I do my thang (I do my thang)
I love myself

I love myself (I love myself), I love my fans
My dance and my what
내 속안엔 (내 속안엔) 몇 십 몇 백명의 내가 있어
오늘 또 다른 날 맞이해
어차피 전부 다 나이기에
고민보다는 걍 달리네
Runnin' man, runnin' man, runnin' man, wah

뭘 어쩌고 저쩌고 떠들어대셔
Talkin', talkin', talkin'
I do what I do, 그니까 넌 너나 잘하셔
You can't stop me lovin' myself

Hoo, hoo
얼쑤 좋다
You can't stop me lovin' myself
Hoo, hoo
지화자 좋다
You can't stop me lovin' myself

Oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh ooh oh oh oh
Oh oh ooh oh
덩기덕 쿵더러러 얼쑤

Oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh ooh oh oh oh
Oh oh ooh oh
덩기덕 쿵더러러 얼쑤

I'm so fine wherever I go
가끔 멀리 돌아가도 (oh)
It's okay, I'm in love with my-my myself
It's okay, 난 이 순간 행복해

Hoo, hoo
얼쑤 좋다
You can't stop me lovin' myself
Hoo, hoo
지화자 좋다
You can't stop me lovin' myself

Oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh ooh oh oh oh
Oh oh ooh oh
덩기덕 쿵더러러 얼쑤

Oh oh ooh oh

Oh oh ooh oh
덩기덕 쿵더러러 얼쑤

Not only did Tyson smash it on the drums, he helped me to properly pronounce every single Korean lyric of this song. How'd we do? If you like what you hear, you can listen on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, Google Play + more. Thank you for watching! ❤️❤️
