ARTMS “Born Stunner” Lyrics

Hangul

I said, “Okay, okay, okay, okay” (Born stunner)
I said, “Okay, okay, okay, okay” (Born stunner)
I said, “Okay, okay, okay, okay” (Born stunner)
I said, “Okay, okay, okay, okay” (Yeah, yeah, yuh)

Born in the glitch (Uh), new type of breed
터지는 flash? Nah, we don’t care (Don’t care)
“Let there be light,” we shape the light
눈빛의 차이 구원의 lie

Oh
Can’t nobody catch me like the glitch in the dark, ah
Oh
Born to be a freak, I’m glowin’ up, up, yeah, no doubt

Call me stunner, 날 빛나는 stupid rumor
I walk it like I talk it, watch me shake, shake, shake it off
Call me stunner, I call it a rude demeanor
Watch me step into the club like I’m your trauma, trauma

Yeah, so give me the mark on your skin
It better be lit or you’re cut, cut, cut
If you wanna get in the line, 1-800-different
Look, the number you just dialed, 좀 달라 나란 gal
Yeah, make you bounce like pow, pow, pow, pow
In this simulation, 빛을 달려 그저 높이 grid 속에 trippin’
Runnin’ the show, if you know, you know
타올라 더 파동에 더, you gon’ admit it

Oh
Can’t nobody catch me like the glitch in the dark, ah
Oh
Born to be a freak, I’m glowin’ up, up, yeah, no doubt

Call me stunner, 날 빛나는 stupid rumor
I walk it like I talk it, watch me shake, shake, shake it off
Call me stunner, I call it a rude demeanor
Watch me step into the club like I’m your trauma, trauma

Okay, okay, okay, okay, call me born stunner, uh
