VAYONN “Watta Day” Lyrics

Hangul

애써 외면한 나쁜 기억들을
마주할 거야
도망 다니면서 내 마음 앓고
상처받는 건 지겨워
What a good day
What a vibey day
맑은 구름에 몸을 던져

시간엔 발이 달렸나 봐
1분이 1초 같아, ah, ah

What a day, we gonna rise
바람이 부는 반대로 달려볼까
I ain’t got no drama
Ain’t got no mess (Ayy)
Don’t feel no pressure
It’s time to fly
What a day, we gonna rise
바람 반대로 달려도 빠르잖아
Now I’m feeling alive
I feel the freedom
느낌 so good
What a day

Put my shoes on
오늘은 완벽
잠시 멈춰 사진 찍어볼까
아무 각도로 찍어도
잘 나와 오늘따라
I shoot like a star (I shoot like a star)
귀엔 rock and roll
마침 듣고 싶던 노래가 나와 (Rock and roll)

오늘따라 쿨한 내 outfit
거울을 봐야 해, 해, 해

What a day, we gonna rise
바람이 부는 반대로 달려볼까
I ain’t got no drama
Ain’t got no mess (Ayy)
Don’t feel no pressure
It’s time to fly
What a day, we gonna rise
바람 반대로 달려도 빠르잖아
Now I’m feeling alive
I feel the freedom
느낌 so good
What a day

Na, na-na-na-na, na-na
(Riding my day, yeah)
Na, na-na-na-na, na-na

What a day, we gonna rise
(Na na na na na na na)
바람 반대로 달려도 빠르잖아
Now I’m feeling alive
I feel the freedom
(Na na na na na na na)
느낌 so good
What a day

Translation

Those bad memories I tried so hard to ignore—
I am finally going to face them head-on
Running away constantly, leaving my heart to ache
And getting hurt over and over—I am totally sick and tired of it
What a good day
What a vibey day
I throw my entire body into the clear clouds

Time must have grown a pair of legs
One whole minute feels like a single second, ah, ah

What a day, we gonna rise
Shall we try running straight against the blowing wind?
I ain’t got no drama
Ain’t got no mess (Ayy)
Don’t feel no pressure
It’s time to fly
What a day, we gonna rise
Even if we run against the wind, we’re still moving so fast
Now I’m feeling alive
I feel the freedom
This feeling is so good
What a day

Put my shoes on
Today is absolute perfection
Should we pause for a split-second and snap a photo?
No matter what random angle I take it from,
It turns out incredibly well today of all days
I shoot like a star (I shoot like a star)
Rock and roll blasting in my ears—
The exact song I wanted to hear just happens to play (Rock and roll)

My outfit is looking exceptionally cool today
I absolutely have to check myself out in the mirror, mirror, mirror

What a day, we gonna rise
Shall we try running straight against the blowing wind?
I ain’t got no drama
Ain’t got no mess (Ayy)
Don’t feel no pressure
It’s time to fly
What a day, we gonna rise
Even if we run against the wind, we’re still moving so fast
Now I’m feeling alive
I feel the freedom
This feeling is so good
What a day

Na, na-na-na-na, na-na
(Riding my day, yeah)
Na, na-na-na-na, na-na

What a day, we gonna rise
(Na na na na na na na)
Even if we run against the wind, we’re still moving so fast
Now I’m feeling alive
I feel the freedom
(Na na na na na na na)
This feeling is so good
What a day
