기억나지도 않는 어릴 적 일기처럼 이젠 잊혀져버린 의미 없는 상상
다 큰 내 생각이 거친 말들을 이해하고 꿈이란 미련에 나는 기대 쉬는가
많은 사람들 속에 나는 무뎌졌어 잘난 이들의 습관에 파묻혀 갔던
I am not I am 숨죽이던 날들에 소리쳐
너는 가르치겠지 어릴적 일기처럼헛된 망상이라고 다그치고 있어
다 큰 내 생각이 거친 말들을 이해하고꿈이란 희망에 나는 기대 쉬는가
많은 사람들 속에 나는 무뎌졌어 잘난 이들의 습관에 파묻혀 갔던
I am not I am 숨죽이던 날들에 소리쳐
What can I say Who could I be What should I say You could be anyone
잘난 니 생각이 내 사고를 지배하고 꿈이란 사치도 이젠 무너지는가
많은 사람들 속에 나는 무뎌졌어 잘난 이들의 습관에 파묻혀 갔던
I am not I am 숨죽이던 날들에 소리쳐
조금 더 부딪혀 미친 이 땅위엔 쓰러지지마
닿을 수 없는 건 닿을 수 없는 건 없어
The lyrics to Younha's song "No Limit" speak of a small dream that the singer once had, which now seems like a distant memory. They have grown up and become jaded by the harsh words of others and the habits of those who think they are superior. The singer tries to hold onto their dream and hopes for a better future, but wonders if they are being foolish for doing so. They feel lost in the crowd and struggle to find their own identity.
The lyrics also touch upon the idea of following someone else, mistaking their path for one of salvation. The singer looks up to this person as someone who can guide them, but realizes that it may all be a figment of their imagination. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I am not I am," emphasizing the singer's struggle to find their own sense of self in a world that constantly tries to change them.
Overall, the lyrics of "No Limit" are a reflection on the challenges of growing up and finding one's identity in a world full of societal pressures and expectations.
