You & I
N.C.C.U. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

망했다 그동안 꽤 잘 참았는데
왜 갑자기 내 앞에 나타나 버린 거야 (why?)
끊긴 회로에 불이 피고 있어 (hey)
곧 폭발함 이젠 나도 몰라 yeah

나 얼마 전에 헤어졌어
꽤 유명한 집돌이고
전화도 잘 안 받고 싶어
그래서 친구 하나 없어
큰맘 먹고 나가 볼까 했어 별 기대 없이
마치 무슨 짠 듯이 짜여진 테이블처럼
내 앞에 니가 있었던 거야

그렇게 꾹꾹, 꾹 난 말을 아끼며
혹시라도 마주칠까 봐서 눈만 동동 굴리며
닮은 게 많지만 확신하지는 않을래
그 순간 포개진 두 손
왠지 ninety-nine problems, go get it

망했다 그동안 꽤 잘 참았는데
왜 갑자기 내 앞에 나타나 버린 거야 (why?)
끊긴 회로에 불이 피고 있어 (hey)
곧 폭발함 이젠 나도 몰라 (oh-na-na-na)

폭망, 폭망 널 좋아하게 됐어
폭망, 폭망 널 좋아하게 됐어

어떻게 우리 둘 사이 낭만이 있을까?
그럼 안 되는 거잖아, 나쁜 놈이잖아
온전히 집중할 시간이 필요했잖아
그냥 핑계였던 거야, 나쁜 놈 잊어라

그렇게 꾹꾹, 꾹 난 말을 아끼며
혹시라도 마주칠까 봐서 눈만 동동 굴리며
닮은 게 많지만 확신하지는 않을래
그 순간 포개진 두 손
왠지 ninety-nine problems, go get it

망했다 그동안 꽤 잘 참았는데
왜 갑자기 내 앞에 나타나 버린 거야 (why?)
끊긴 회로에 불이 피고 있어 (hey)
곧 폭발함 이젠 나도 몰라 (oh-na-na-na)

폭망, 폭망 널 좋아하게 됐어
폭망, 폭망 널 좋아하게 됐어

있는 힘껏 날 욕해, 난 벌 받을 거야
기분은 날아갈 듯이 좋아질 거야
똑같은 놈 만나서 너도 똑같이 당해 봐
내 기분을 망치지 말아 줘
Don't mess up (Don't mess up)
Huh-ooh

망했다 그동안 꽤 잘 참았는데
왜 갑자기 내 앞에 나타나 버린 거야 (why?)
끊긴 회로에 불이 피고 있어 (hey)
곧 폭발함 이젠 나도 몰라 yeah (oh-na-na-na)





폭망, 폭망 널 좋아하게 됐어
폭망, 폭망 널 좋아하게 됐어

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to N.C.C.U.'s song "You & I" depict the singer's desperation to hold onto their relationship. The verses suggest that the singer is aware of their tendency to self-sabotage, warning their partner that they will "fuck it up" but assuring them that it is unintentional. The chorus repeats the plea for the partner to stay, emphasizing the singer's need for them. The metaphor of a rollercoaster is used to describe the emotional ups and downs of the relationship.


The line "Im tryna build you / Buttercup" may be interpreted in two ways. One interpretation is that the singer is trying to build their partner up and support them ("Buttercup" being a term of endearment). Another interpretation is that the singer is trying to build up their own ego, using their partner's affection to boost their own sense of self-worth (i.e. "Buttercup" being a reference to the childhood game where children hold a flower under someone's chin to determine if they like butter). This ambiguity adds depth to the song's portrayal of a complex and imperfect relationship.


Overall, "You & I" is a heartfelt plea for love and stability, highlighting the struggles and uncertainty that can come with it. The lyrics are relatable to anyone who has experienced the highs and lows of a romantic relationship.

Aaron Mills of Cameo was the bass player for this band.

@elquebi

This cut is very reminiscent of Ohio Players "Heaven Must be Like This" off of Skin Tight album. I remember buying this album way back in the day based solely on seeing Donald Byrd's name on the sleeve, and having been a big fan of the Blackbyrds - City Life, Unfinished Business and Action
