​j-hope - Daydream (백일몽) (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
My character's like half and half, who knows?
A public figure's striving life, who knows?
Abstaining from large cravings, who knows?
Always out of breath for daydreaming, who knows?
Wanna cry in peace, I know
Wanna party like crazy, I know
Wanna be fluttered with love, I know
Yeh, I know, I know, I know, 'cause me
Y'all must've been caught like fish
In a net called ‘desire’ with thirst in life
Common psychological escape
Even I can't swim out of it
Not, a reality refusal
Discontent, misfitting, ain't none of that
Love ma' rule
For once, I want a different picture in my life
That I want to draw, a canvas dream (Sleep)

[Pre-Chorus]
Beyond that boundary line over there
Let's feel it
Like the hole Alice fell into
Like the road that leads to Hogwarts
It'll be a world of mirages
And it’ll be all mine
It'll be exactly how I imagined
But it won't last forever (Shit)
[Chorus]
Wishing on a sky, wishing on a scar
If there's the sun, I'd want to dream
Wishing on a sky, wishing on a scar
If there's the moonlight, I wouldn't want to wake up
My Daydream, daydream, oh
Daydream, daydream, oh
(Last) Daydream, daydream, ooh
Daydream, daydream
Daydream, daydream, ay yeah

[Verse 2]
So what? I get drunk until I go crazy
So what? I go out, don't think about work
Let's just feel the youth
Young, wild, and free, wild and free
Let me give it a try
No eggshell walking, errday
I do what I want with my feelings, errday
A love-expert sniping the heart when you fall in it, errday
Work out on my desire without a formula, errday
Ignore my character, errday
Wanna cry with no shame, errday
Dream list, the first priority
With no concerns on money (Deep sleep)
[Pre-Chorus]
Beyond that boundary line over there
Let's feel it
Like the hole Alice fell into
Like the road that leads to Hogwarts
It'll be a world of mirages
And it'll be all mine
It'll be exactly how I imagined
But it won't last forever (Shit)

[Chorus]
Wishing on a sky, wishing on a scar
If there's the sun, I'd want to dream
Wishing on a sky, wishing on a scar
If there's the moonlight, I wouldn't want to wake up
My Daydream, daydream, oh
Daydream, daydream, oh
(Last) Daydream, daydream, ooh
Daydream, daydream
Daydream, daydream, ay yeah

[Verse 3]
If you ask me back why I dream
I'll sound like bragging
I'll put it down for a minute
To match my mechanism, stay
I'll say that I'm getting some rest
What's this? What's this?
Diving in the daydream, all the swimming is for me
Like this, like this
All my footsteps and my fantasy
[Bridge]
If I want something (Oh, oh, oh)
If I want something now (Ooh)
If I want something (Something, yeah)
If I want something now

[Chorus]
That's a daydream (Daydream, daydream)
They dream, they dream (No, no, no, no, no)
That's a daydream (No, no, yeah)
Daydream, daydream (Daydream)
Daydream, daydream (Daydream, yeah)

[Outro]
Wake up
