Ayo SUGA 요즘 날 떠다니는 단어

Ayo SUGA nowadays this word floats around me

“Respect” 근데 요샌 뜻이 좀 헷갈려

Respect but these days I'm confused of its meaning

그걸 한대 누굴 자꾸 뭐만 하면

They say it's said when someone keeps doing something

나도 잘은 몰라 brotha 낸들 알어

I'm not really sure either, brotha, do ya know?

분명히 사랑보다 상위

It's obviously superior than love

상위 어쩜 그 중 최상위

Probably a concept that exists at the most superior rank

에 존재하고 있는 개념이

Out of all the superiors

존경이란 거 아냐 huh?

Isn't that called respect, huh?

“Re-spect” 말 그대로 보고 자꾸 보는 거

Re-spect means as it sounds, to literally look again and again

자꾸 보다보면은 단점이 보여

Look again and again and you'll see faults

But 그럼에도 자꾸 보고 싶단 건

But you still want to keep looking, despite of that

필요하지 그 누구를 향한 완벽한 신념

You'll need that perfect belief towards someone

해서 난 도무지 쉽게 말 못 해

So I can't get myself to easily say

아득하거든 그 무게와 두께

The weight and thickness of it is vague

언젠가 당당히 말할 수 있게 되기를

I hope someday I can confidently say it

진심을 다해서 내게도 네게도

And mean it when I do, to you and to me, huh

부디 존경을 쉽게 말하지 마 yeah

Please don't say respect easily, yeah

아직 나도 잘 모르겠으니까 yeah

Because even I am not sure, yeah

나도 가끔 내가 무서우니까

Sometimes I'm scared of myself

약한 내가 간파당하면 어쩌지

What if the weak me is found out

(Respect) 쉽게들 말하네

(Respect) Everybody says it so easily

(Respect) 뭔지 모르는데

(Respect) Though you don't know what it is

(Respect) 다시 들여다보길

(Respect) Please take a look again

(Respect) One time

(Respect) One time

(Respect) Two times

(Respect) Two times

(Respect) 쉽겐 말 안 할래

(Respect) I won't say it easily

(Respect) 아직 잘 몰라도

(Respect) Even if I don't know well now

(Respect) 언젠가 말할게

(Respect) One day I'll say it

(Respect) One time

(Respect) One time

(Respect) Oh yeah

(Respect) Oh yeah

Respect이 뭔데

What is respect? (What, hyung?)

몰라서 묻는 거야 임마

I don't know, that's why I'm asking, you rascal (Oh, I see)

Respect이 뭐길래

What even is respect?

다들 respect을 말하는지

Why is everyone saying it

솔직히 이해가 안 되네

Honestly I can't understand

누구를 존경한다는 게

Admiring someone

그렇게 쉬운 거였니

Was it something really that easy?

아직도 이해가 안 되네

I still can't understand it

솔까 존경은 필요 없지

To be honest, there's no need for admiration

존중조차도 없는데

When there's not even respect

뒤에선 호박씨 까는 거

Everyone except you knows people

너 빼곤 다 아는데 글쎄

Talk shit behind your back

나는 솔직히 너를 respect

I honestly respect you

너도 나를 respect 할 거라는 생각은 1도 없으니 스킵해

You have no intention to respect me so just skip it

Respect 나는 너를 respect

Respect, I respect you

웃으면서 욕하는 저 친구에게 박수

Applause to that pal who speak ill while smiling

(Respect Respect)

(Respect respect)

너의 삶에 모든 영광과 번영이 깃들길

Hope all the glory and prosperity seep into your life

(Respect Respect)

(Respect respect)

너의 앞길엔 영원한 축복이 함께하길

Hope the road in front of you is eternally blessed

(Respect Respect)

(Respect respect)

돈 명예 전진 전진

Money, honor, forward, forward

(Respect Respect)

(Respect respect)

그래 널 존경해 yeah

Yes, I respect you, yeah

(Respect) 쉽게들 말하네

(Respect) Everybody says it so easily

(Respect) 뭔지 모르는데

(Respect) Though you don't know what it is

(Respect) 다시 들여다보길

(Respect) Please take a look again

(Respect) One time

(Respect) One time

(Respect) Two times

(Respect) Two times

(Respect) 쉽겐 말 안 할래

(Respect) I won't say it easily

(Respect) 아직 잘 몰라도

(Respect) Even if I don't know well now

(Respect) One say I'll say it

(Respect) One time

(Respect) One time

(Respect) Oh yeah

(Respect) Oh yeah
