Yun (with Erykah Badu) | RM

Spotify | Lyric Video

Korean Title: 윤 (with Erykah Badu) by RM

Album: Indigo (2022)

Lyrics:

[Intro]

평생 진리에 살다가야한다 이거야 플라톤의 인문학에서는 인간의 본질인데, 진��미* According to Plato, it’s the essence of humans; to seek cognitive truth, ethical goodness, and aesthetic beauty

진실하다는 ‘진’자 하고, 착할 ‘선’자하고 아름다울 ‘미’하고인데 It's Jin for sincerity, Seon for being nice, and Mi for being beautiful

[He’s basically breaking down the phrase & explaining what each individual character means]

내 생각에는 진 하나만 가지면 다 해결되는 것 같아 But I think that if you just have Jin (sincerity / truth), everything you want will come to fruition

[Verse 1]

Fuck the trendsetter

I'mma turn back the time

Back the time, far to when I was nine

좋은 것과 아닌 것밖에 없던 그때 When there was nothing except good things and bad things,

차라리 그때가 더 인간이었던 듯해 It’s like I was more human back then

이쪽저쪽에서 받았던 손가락질들이 The pointed fingers that I received from this side and that side

이젠 가야 할 곳이라며 저 산을 가리키지 Now say ‘that mountain is the place you have to go’

That's where you belong

Oh, you gon’ be alone if

뭣도 아닌 그 진심들을 고집하면은 If you insist on the truth that is nothing much

팀 빠진 넌 사실 뭣도 아니야 너는 You’re actually nothing much without the team, you

고속도로서 오솔길로 가려 해 너는 From the highway, you’re trying to go (end up) on a trail

그냥 내 말 좀 들어 그러다 다 잃어 Just listen to me or else you'll lose everything

늘 그랬듯 you go with the flow, you get better As always, you go with the flow, you get better

Fuck that shit, 에뜨랑제의 lifestyle Fuck that shit, a foreigner’s* lifestyle

늘 나의 자리는 경계선의 pipeline My place is always a pipeline of boundaries

여전히 난 허락되지 않는 꿈을 꿔 As ever, I dream dreams I'm not allowed to have

아무도 보지 않는 춤을 춰 Do a dance no one can see

[Pre-Chorus]

You keep the silence

'Fore you do somethin', now

You be a human

Till the death of you, now

[Chorus]

I wanna be a human

'Fore I do some art

It's a cruel world

But there's gon’ be my part

'Cause true beauty is a true sadness

Now you could feel my madness

I wanna be a human

'Fore I do some art

It's a cruel world

But there's gon’ be my part

'Cause true beauty is a true sadness

Now you could feel my madness

[Verse 2]

그는 말했지 늘, 먼저 사람이 돼라 He always said, ‘become a human first’

예술 할 생각 말고 놀아 느껴 희로애락 Instead of thinking about doing art, feel joy, sorrow, anger, and pleasure

What is it with the techniques?

What is it with the skills?

What is it with all the words?

In your lyrics that you can't feel?

나 당신이 말한 진리가 뭔지 몰라 다만 Although I don’t know what truth you talked about,

그저 찾아가는 길 위 나의 속도와 방향 On the path to find it, this is just my speed and way

You're dead

But to me you the fuckin' contemporary

여전히 이곳에 살아서 흘러 permanently Living here as always, flowing permanently

이 모든 경계의 위에 선 자들에게 To those standing above all these boundaries,

반드시 보내야만 했던 나의 밤을 건네 I hand over the night that I had to spend (experience) no matter what

반짝이는 불꽃은 언젠가 땅으로 Sparkling flames will someday go to the ground

카이사르의 것은 카이사르로 Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's*

시커멓게 탄 심장 Heart blackened as coal

재를 뿌린 그 위에 시를 쓰네 Over the scattered ashes, I write a poem

사선을 오갔던 생과 To the life that went across and back over (the line of) life and death, and

당신이 마침내 이 땅에 남긴 것들에게 To the things you ultimately left on this earth,

나 역시 그저 좀 더 나은 어른이길 I also just wish to be a slightly better adult

[Pre-Chorus]

You keep the silence

'Fore you do somethin', now

You be a human

Till the death of you, now

[Chorus]

I wanna be a human

'Fore I do some art

It's a cruel world

But there's gon’ be my part

'Cause true beauty is a true sadness

Now you could feel my madness

I wanna be a human

'Fore I do some art

It's a cruel world

But there's gon’ be my part

'Cause true beauty is a true sadness

Now you could feel my madness?

[Outro]

내가 죽기까지 못하는 거야 I won’t be able to do it even until my death

그렇게 하고싶은데 안되는거야 I want to do it so bad but it doesn’t work

그러려면 욕심도 다 버리고 To do that, you have to throw out all your greed, and

모든 욕심을 다 버려��해 You have to fully throw all your greed out

천진무구한 세계로 들어가야지 You have to enter into a state of innocence

그러니까 그건 나는 그렇게 하고 싶은데 안되는거야 So that’s what I want to do so much but it doesn’t work

근데 죽을 때까지 그렇게 해보려고 노력은 해야지 But until I die, I have to continue trying to do that

그게 인간의 목적인 것 같아 I think that’s the purpose of human beings

Translation Notes: [1] 진선미 is derived from Chinese characters 眞善美 which describe ‘cognitive truth, ethical goodness, and aesthetic beauty’ as universally valid values ​​and human ideals. [2] Translated as ‘foreigner’, 에뜨랑제 is actually the french word ‘étranger’. [3] ‘Render unto Caesar’

This is a reminder to please refrain from using my translations without credit & to keep in mind that i sometimes edit them so it's better to refer to my blog posts anyways <3

Exhibition of RM's favourite artist Yun Hyong-Keun opening soon

I'm planning a trip to Hastings this summer to see the Yun Hyong-Keun exhibition. Heard so much about him from RM last year, it's definitely worth a trip to the coast to see the paintings first hand.
