Intro: 화양연화 [Intro: The Most Beautiful Moment in Life] [hwayang-yeonhwa] [English translation]

[Intro: Heavy breathing]

[Verse: Suga]

The rim looks farther away today

Sighs are building on top of the court

The boy is afraid of reality

But his heart is at peace only when he throws the ball

Throwing the ball by himself

What I’m shooting at the rim

Are my countless thoughts and worries

I pretend to know the world but my body is still not ready

Shoot, the court is my playground

With my movements, a small ball bounces next to my feet

The results are as low as the floor

But I just shout out loud to the world that everything’s gonna be alright

But the world gives me fear, then just stop

Thoughts fill my head and instead of the ball, I throw my future

Because of the other’s standard of success

My worries spread like cancer again, God damn it

Along with the thrown ball, laughter starts to spread

My breath rises to my chin, my dreams squirm about

The dribbles get faster, my heart gets happier

This moment feels like it’ll last forever but the sun is setting

When the night comes again, reality gets destroyed

When I snap out of it, I’m just a scared idiot again

I keep getting scared at the looming sense of reality

Others are running ahead but why am I still here?

Breathe or dream

Row the oars along with your heartbeat

If you are trapped in the other’s thin judgements

Then the sun will set on your life like a court

What am i doin’ with my life

This moment won’t ever come again

I’m asking myself again, am I happy right now?

The answer is already there, I’m happy
