9 Days Lyrics – RIIZE

[Verse 1: Wonbin, Eunseok]
잠들지 못한 새벽
불 꺼진 차 안에 잠시 몸을 기대
내 일주일은 매번
이틀쯤은 더 길게 가는 듯해

[Pre-Chorus: Sungchan, Anton, Sohee]
I try, 어제보다 오늘
빠르게 달려가 계속 day by day
난 숨차도 I’m doing my best
후회는 안 남게
때론 발이 무겁지만
계속 나아가야 해 we alright
[Chorus: All, Wonbin]
I’ve been out here nine whole days
매일 반복돼 무대 위의 난
I’ve been going nine whole days
매일 반복해 내 꿈은 too far
이 감정들은 truth
나 계속 움직이는 이유
I’ve been going nine whole days
이겨내야 해 거울 앞의 날

[Verse 2: Shotaro, Sungchan, Eunseok]
무대와 lesson 또 recording, yeah
눈뜨면 또다시 되풀이, yeah
어색했던 모든 게 조금씩, yeah
일상이 돼가
좀 이제는 알 것 같다가도 낯설어 여전히
Why can’t it be easy?
쉽게만 보였던 모든 건 어려워
끝없는 연습과 노력
난 날 하루도 멈출 수 없어

[Pre-Chorus: Anton, Shotaro, Wonbin]
I try, 더욱 올라가는
기대와 한계를 넘어 day by day
난 끝까지 I’m doing my best
늘 내게 약속해
때론 잠시 넘어져도
나를 믿고 계속 달려 나가

[Chorus: All, Sohee]
I’ve been out here nine whole days
매일 반복돼 무대 위의 난
I’ve been going nine whole days
매일 반복해 내 꿈은 too far
이 감정들은 truth
나 계속 움직이는 이유
I’ve been going nine whole days
이겨내야 해 거울 앞의 날

[Refrain: Wonbin, Sohee]
I should’ve known (I should’ve known)
I should’ve known (I should’ve known)
I should’ve known (I should’ve known)
끝이란 없어 매 순간

[Outro: Anton]
또 다른 나를 향해 나아가
