CRAVITY “AWAKE” Lyrics

Hangul

Awake alone
내 시선이 멈춰 선 곳
Your eyes were closed
위태롭게 또 걷고 있어

No matter where we are
No matter what it takes
새벽은 찾아와

We are still on the ground
떠오른 태양이
Breathing into the light

Now I’m reaching for the fire
이 열기는 Higher
이제는 Pick up my pieces
눈이 먼다 해도 All in

뜨겁게 번진 Wild lightning
끊임없는 Rising
이젠 날 멈추지 못해
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Eyes on it I want it
I’m wide awake
Eyes on it I want it
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

조용히 움직여
Swallow the end then I
(Low hiss hiss hiss)
되감아 Can’t see no finish line in my design

Bite me 송곳니로 깊숙이 날 물어
Fight me 매일 나를 새롭게 만들어
Keep the blood drippin’ ever slightly
Cold blooded we be looking quite enticing

No matter where we are
No matter what it takes
새벽은 찾아와

견뎌낸 심장이
다시 또 깨어나
Nothing can stop us now

Now I’m reaching for the fire
이 열기는 Higher
이제는 Pick up my pieces
눈이 먼다 해도 All in

뜨겁게 번진 Wild lightning
끊임없는 Rising
이젠 날 멈추지 못해
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Eyes on it I want it
Eyes on it I want it
Eyes on it I want it
(Eyes on it I want it)

This is the greatest awakening
Eyes on it I want it, everything
I get what I want, it’s in front of me
Round and around I can go for eternity

Now I’m reaching for the fire
이 열기는 Higher
Look at me I’m going crazy
새로 태어난 Emotion

뜨겁게 번진 Wild lightning
끊임없는 Rising
이젠 날 멈추지 못해
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Eyes on it I want it
I’m wide awake
Eyes on it I want it
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Romanized

Translation

Awake alone
Where my eyes stopped, staring
Your eyes were closed
Walking on the edge again

No matter where we are
No matter what it takes
Dawn arrives

We are still on the ground
The rising sun is
Breathing into the light

Now I’m reaching for the fire
This heat is getting Higher
Now Pick up my pieces
Even if I go blind, I’m All in

Spreading heat, Wild lightning
Endlessly Rising
Can’t stop me now
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Eyes on it I want it
I’m wide awake
Eyes on it I want it
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Move quietly
Swallow the end then I
(Low hiss hiss hiss)
Rewind, Can’t see no finish line in my design

Bite me deep with your fangs
Fight me, make me new every day
Keep the blood drippin’ ever slightly
Cold blooded we be looking quite enticing

No matter where we are
No matter what it takes
Dawn arrives

The heart that endured
Awakens once again
Nothing can stop us now

Now I’m reaching for the fire
This heat is getting Higher
Now Pick up my pieces
Even if I go blind, I’m All in

Spreading heat, Wild lightning
Endlessly Rising
Can’t stop me now
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Eyes on it I want it
Eyes on it I want it
Eyes on it I want it
(Eyes on it I want it)

This is the greatest awakening
Eyes on it I want it, everything
I get what I want, it’s in front of me
Round and around I can go for eternity

Now I’m reaching for the fire
This heat is getting Higher
Look at me I’m going crazy
A newly formed Emotion

Spreading heat, Wild lightning
Endlessly Rising
Can’t stop me now
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

Eyes on it I want it
I’m wide awake
Eyes on it I want it
Burn it up burn it up burn it up

CRAVITY “AWAKE” Meaning

“AWAKE” serves as the central track of CRAVITY’s mini-album ReDefine, delivering a powerful message about transformation and new beginnings. The lyrics revolve around the idea that what feels like an ending can actually be the start of something new, emphasizing growth that only comes after facing confusion, pain, or inner conflict.

At its core, the song captures the moment of self-realization after turmoil. Rather than avoiding darkness, “AWAKE” suggests that going through uncertainty is necessary to discover a clearer, more authentic version of oneself. This turning point from being lost to becoming aware defines the emotional journey of the track.

CRAVITY “AWAKE” Lyrics

The dark synth-pop sound reinforces this narrative, with shifting atmospheres in each section reflecting emotional instability and eventual clarity. The addictive beat and chorus create a sense of momentum, symbolizing the process of breaking through and moving forward.

As part of the ReDefine album, “AWAKE” also represents CRAVITY’s broader message of constant evolution. The group highlights their willingness to change, grow, and redefine their identity without being confined to a fixed image. Themes of fear, longing, and growth come together to show a more honest and dynamic version of themselves.

Ultimately, “AWAKE” is about awakening not just from confusion, but into a stronger sense of self—proving that every ending holds the potential for a new beginning.
