Epik High (Mithra’s Word) Feat. Han Hee Jung – Breathe

Dreams are sweet like spring flowers after winter
At the end of the heart’s turmoil without anyone knowing, smiles go around
You have to quit if you go outside the society’s eyes
Your sleeves get dirty because of your parent’s demands
The experience that society really wants
It’s a secret garden that you can’t find in books
Feeling your own body, breathing with your skin
Having bruised hands and feet
If it’s your kid, it’s a beautiful attempt
You want to raise him/her to grow bigger
With heavy pressure, you push him/her to an academy
They’ll turn out good somehow
You can just add onto it with tutoring
But why are they losing the light in their eyes?
It’s because you keep blocking what they want to see
Because someone else keeps planning my youth
I’m running out of breath, tired from the competition
There are no more spots for the children to stand on
No one is listening to me

* It doesn’t get harder as it goes
Even if the world turns against you
Even if you go back on the long road alone
Don’t ever let go, don’t ever turn back
This is a solitary fight, don’t give up yet (x2)

The daily lifestyle is a prison that keeps repeating
There are so many subjects, you can’t even breathe
Because of someone else’s greed, this boring acceleration continues
Poison spreads throughout the body, becoming paralyzed when you sit at your desk
It’s no fun – answers seep through like water seeping through a net
Not being able to do it is a sin – they punish you so you can keep going so you wither up
Your rejection to all of this stack up like the Himalayas
Calling it success but when it comes to show, they trip, trample and fight against each other
The mindset of swearing – there is nothing that the children can learn
You just need to open your ears for them
Even if it doesn’t seem like it, just put your hand on their shoulder
When they are breaking down, become wings on their back
Just the one word saying “have strength” is all they need
No one is listening to you

* Repeat

No one is listening to you
It doesn’t get harder as it goes

Breathe in breathe out
Breathe in breathe out
Easy So easy (x4)

Hoping to be a bridge between k-pop music & k-pop fans who don't understand the Korean language.
