aespa “Live My Life” Lyrics

Hangul

Bye 따분한
고지식한 그런 사고방식
Say (Say) 솔직한 (솔직한) 마음만
너를 속이진 마

You and me
다른 꿈을 그릴 뿐이지
But you (You) and me (Me)
Keep believing

I live my life
이제 난 틀에 맞춰진 규칙 깨버려
뻔한 네 사고방식
I live my life
이제부터가 시작이야 내가 선택한
삶의 주인공은 나

기대해 live my life (My life, my life, my life, my life)
새롭게 live my life (My life, my life, my life, my life)
Oh, 힘차게 live my life (My life, my life, my life, my life)
외쳐봐 live my life (My life, my life, my life, my life)

Keep 빛나는 eyes (나는 eyes)
Better idea (Yeah)
자신 있는 표정 lightly (Lightly)
움직이는 변화 (변화)
Make it a new thing
그래 또 다른
시작이야

You and me (Me)
다른 꿈을 그릴 뿐이지
But you (You) and me (Me)
Keep believing

I live my life
이제 난 틀에 맞춰진 규칙 깨버려
뻔한 네 사고방식
I live my life
이제부터가 시작이야 내가 선택한
삶의 주인공은 나

기대해 live my life (때론 힘들어도)
새롭게 live my life (나에게 찾아오는 소중한 light)
Oh, 힘차게 live my life (Don’t give up 자신을 믿어)
외쳐봐 live my life (소중한 your life)

시간은 멈출 수 없잖아 life’s too short (Life)
No more, I don’t care (No)
구속하지 말아줘
인생에 정답이란 없어 you know best
You just live your life (Ooh)
나답게 난 살 거야

I live my life (Ooh)
이제 난 두렵지 않아
주저하지 마 (Oh)
Life is like a miracle
I live my life (Ooh)
이제부터가 진짜야
내가 행복할 (행복할)
삶의 주인공은 나 (Oh)

기대해 live my life (My life, my life, my life, my life)
새롭게 live my life (My life, my life, my life, my life)
Oh, 힘차게 live my life (Yeah; My life, my life, my life, my life)
외쳐봐 live my life (My life, my life, my life, my life)
