First, shout out to colorcodedlyrics for having translated versions of all of my favorite k-pop songs. It’s my go-to website when looking for translations, and it’s way easier and more accurate than copy-pasting words into google translate. Second, shout out to BTS for being incredible and inspiring, and congrats on making one of the greatest songs EVER! Without further ado, here we go. Fair warning, I got rid of the repeated parts to save space. Alright, 가자!
I’m opening my eyes under the sky that’s so blue that it’s cold. The out-pouring sunlight makes me feel dizzy My breath is quickening, my heart is racing. I can feel it so easily that I’m alive
You know those days when you wake up and look out the window, thinking, “Maybe being alive isn’t so bad after all.”? When the sky is just the right shade of blue and the sun is just the right amount of sun, the air feels just right, and you feel like maybe you can do this after all…. Those days are my favorite.
It’s alright, even if it’s not us Even if sadness erases me Even if there are clouds Even if I’m in an endless dream Even if I’m endlessly crumpled Even if my wings are torn Even if some day, I’m not me anymore
Unfortunately, those days don’t seem to happen often enough. Sometimes it’s too rainy or too cloudy, sometimes I can’t believe I ever felt fine to begin with, and sometimes life seems to leave me behind in the dust. There is always going to be something wrong. There will always be that one thing that stops it from being perfect.
It’s alright, only I am my own salvation I won’t ever die in this walk How you doin? I'm fine My sky is clear All pain, say goodbye
I think I’ve reached the point where being fine is okay. Being fine is fantastic! Also, being fine is way easier than being happy. One time someone asked me how I was, and I almost responded with, “Well, I’m not dead, so there’s that.” The other day I was talking to my friend on the phone, and she asked me how I was. And I thought for a second and said, “you know what? I am doing really well”. Because I’ve made it to the point where I’m ready to be okay.
My cold heart Has forgotten how to call you But I’m not lonely, I’m fine, I’m fine The darkness of the night Shakes awake my sleeping dreams But I’m not afraid, I’m fine, I’m fine
Not only am I ready to be okay, but I think I finally want to be okay also. I’m tired of being miserable and scared all the time. I was afraid that my life would never go anywhere, scared that I’d die alone, and scared of not knowing. I sometimes think about my life and worry that it will never amount to anything. But it doesn’t scare me like it used to because now I feel like maybe I can do something about it.
I’m feeling just fine, fine, fine I’ll let go of your hand now I know I’m all mine, mine, mine Cause I’m just fine I’m feeling just fine, fine, fine I don’t wanna be sad anymore I could see the sun shine, shine, shine Cause I’m just fine, just fine
I really don’t want to be sad anymore. I’ve been miserable for long enough. I’ve hidden from my problems long enough. I love when I go outside, and the sun is shining because it always makes me think of this part and reminds me that I don’t have to be sad if I don’t want to. Even if nothing else is shining, at least the sun is.
I’m just fine, all of my pain I can overcome without you I’m just fine, don’t worry I can smile now Because everyone knows your voice (and now my favorite part) I’m so fine, you so fine All of the sadness and scars Became an old memory now So let’s smile and let go, we so fine I'm so fine, you so fine Our future will only have happiness So put away your fear Enjoy it, you worked hard, we so fine
You know what; I have worked hard! I’ve overcome so much crap it’s unreal! I legit should get a medal (totally kidding about the medal, participation awards are dumb). I just need to enjoy life more instead of worrying about it. Even if my life doesn’t have a fantastic future, how bad can it be as long as I’m enjoying it?
[insert pre chorus and first chorus here] Can you see it too? The dim moonlight? Can you hear it too? That faint echo? I’m feeling just fine, fine, fine I’ll shout it out by myself Casting a spell on this repeating nightmare I’m feeling just fine, fine, fine I’ll keep telling myself Even if I fall down again I’m fine [repeat second chorus with 2 added “I’m fine”’s] I’m fine
I’m sure there will be more bad days to come, but there will be good days too, and no matter what, I’ll be just fine. Because when the bad days come, I’ll use them to prepare for the good days. When the good days come, I’ll enjoy them as much as possible, and if I can keep doing that, I think I’ll be just fine.
I hope you guys enjoyed my first music Monday. I hope it can give you the same hope and encouragement it has given me. Until next time…
