Stray Kids “RUN IT” Lyrics
Hangul
Ain’t no limit, never running out
Everywhere we go, another win, another day
Yeah, we shining with the lights out
Even in the dark, we find a way to make a way
All my life, I’ve been fighting this and fighting that
시련 속에서도 계속
Oh, this time I ain’t looking back, I won’t collapse
Head high right now we go, oh, oh, oh
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
It’s another day, coming on the way
Build another city, run it day and night
Live another day, yeah, we on the way
All around the world, we’ll run it day and night
(Ooh-ooh)
Run it day and night
(Ooh-ooh)
Run it day and night
Gotta be me, yeah, 멈춤 없이 올려 내 speed
수많은 화살에 떠 miss, unstoppable beast
이 영광에 취하지 않아 더 많은 걸 원해, 성취해내 더 높은 dream
하나씩 올리고 편하게 lean, 내가 하는 건 오직 하나 win, win, you’re gonna see
좌절보다 이겨 내는 게 easy
Ooh, 고난과 역경이 trained me, feel me?
전부 다 챙겨 그 많은 포부 전부 쟁취
Again and again, 여태까지 그래왔던 것처럼 we’re gonna make it
All my life, I’ve been fighting this and fighting that
시련 속에서도 계속
Oh, this time I ain’t looking back, I won’t collapse
Head high right now we go, oh, oh, oh
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
It’s another day, coming on the way
Build another city, run it day and night
Live another day, yeah, we on the way
All around the world
Oh, I’ll never give up, I’m just gonna stand up
I’m putting my hands up, 저 하늘 향해서
We’re rising, no fade-out, across the world, spread out
If you feel it, hands up, 저 하늘 향해서 (Come on)
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
Woah

Dreams on repeat, building up my throne (Run it everywhere)
From Seoul to the world, now they know (All around the world)
My zone, we’re never alone
이 순간이 proof we made it (Woah)
Long nights waited never faded (Run it everywhere)
All that pain, yeah, I paid it (All around the world)

그들의 심장 박동 소리 (Run it everywhere)
That’s our motivation, 멈출 수 없지 (All around the world)
Until we’re chasing victory

Translation
Ain’t no limit, never running out
Everywhere we go, another win, another day
Yeah, we shining with the lights out
Even in the dark, we find a way to make a way
All my life, I’ve been fighting this and fighting that
Even in the center of trials, I keep pushing forward
Oh, this time I ain’t looking back, I won’t collapse
Head high right now we go, oh, oh, oh
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
It’s another day, coming on the way
Build another city, run it day and night
Live another day, yeah, we on the way
All around the world, we’ll run it day and night
(Ooh-ooh)
Run it day and night
(Ooh-ooh)
Run it day and night
Gotta be me, yeah, without a single pause, I crank up my speed
Countless arrows shot at me all end up as a miss, I’m an unstoppable beast
I won’t let myself get drunk on this temporary glory; I want more, achieving an even higher dream
Building it up block by block, then I can comfortably lean back; the only thing I do is win, win, you’re gonna see
Overcoming the obstacles is honestly much more easy than despairing
Ooh, the hardships and adversity are exactly what trained me, feel me?
I’m taking everything—claiming and conquering every single massive ambition
Again and again, just like we’ve always done up until now, we’re gonna make it
All my life, I’ve been fighting this and fighting that
Even in the center of trials, I keep pushing forward
Oh, this time I ain’t looking back, I won’t collapse
Head high right now we go, oh, oh, oh
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
It’s another day, coming on the way
Build another city, run it day and night
Live another day, yeah, we on the way
All around the world
Oh, I’ll never give up, I’m just gonna stand up
I’m putting my hands up, pointing straight toward that sky
We’re rising, no fade-out, across the world, spread out
If you feel it, hands up, pointing straight toward that sky (Come on)
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
Woah
Run it everywhere all around the world
Starting out in a tiny, cramped room, sound leaking through my phones (Woah)
Dreams on repeat, building up my throne (Run it everywhere)
From Seoul to the world, now they know (All around the world)
My zone, we’re never alone
This exact moment is the proof we made it (Woah)
Long nights waited never faded (Run it everywhere)
All that pain, yeah, I paid it (All around the world)
The tears of blood I once shed, I saved it and turned it into power
As we match our footsteps, growing faster and so much stronger (Woah)
Listen to the collective thumping sound of their heartbeats (Run it everywhere)
That’s our motivation, there’s absolutely no stopping us (All around the world)
Until we’re chasing victory
Our story will be left behind as definitive history (Woah)
The melody we used to just hum carelessly is now a massive symphony (Run it everywhere)
I can hear the voices calling out to us from all over (All around the world)
We are diving headfirst into an even wider, grander world
