성냥한개비 (A Match)Jessi (제시)

Hangeul/English

[Chorus: Jessi]
모두가 잠든 늦은 새벽에
난 또, 잠들지 못해 I’m still awake
I’m sick of all the lonely nights
I need a match to shine the light
불씨가 필요해 I’m lookin' for a spark

[Verse 1]
Is everyday like this guess
I gotta go get wit it
I'm thinking to myself
Oh life could so silly
Is it you if it's me
Then only God can judge me (who you)

[Verse 2]
I'm tryna go a little bit higher
Nobody gon put out my fire
No way nobody gon stop me
난 내 방식대로 가 내 갈 길

[Verse 3]
I stand I fall, I tried it all
낯선 길속을 난 헤매
A lonely road but i should go
널 마주 할 수 있게eh

[Verse 4: Double K]
시작은 초라했지 가진 거라곤
내 손에 있는 성냥한개비란
그 안에 담긴 내 비전과 내 소망
But record labels turn me down
데모테입은 됐고 다음
쪼그만 성냥보단 화려한 불꽃이 돼서 와
That’s what they say
그들의 눈에 비친 내 그림은
하찮은 존재 후 불면
꺼질 듯한 가냘픈 불씨 뿐
못 봤지 그걸 어디에 어떻게 내가 쓸지는
생각 못했니 불꽃은
한번 튀면 어떻게 되는지
Gone 반면 내 열정은 기름 한 트럭
난 트랙에 부어 불을 거기에 붙여
그때부터 점점 더 번져 커져왔던 내 구역
이젠 돌이킬 수 없어 like scarface의 흉터
다 애를 써 날 끄려고 찬물을 끼얹어
But 꺼진 적 없고 앞으로도 꺼질 일 없어
See what’s up

[Chorus: Jessi]
모두가 잠든 늦은 새벽에
난 또, 잠들지 못해 I’m still awake
I’m sick of all the lonely nights
I need a match to shine the light
불씨가 필요해 I’m looking for a spark

Lights on

Lights on lights on light em on oh, oh, oh

[Double K]
I promise u I make u proud
이 춤이 다 끝나면
끝까지 누가 남어 있을진
다 두고 보면 알어 98년 mic을 잡어
내 첫 rhyme을 곡에 담었던 그 순간부터
단 한 번도 없어 갈아탄 적
청춘 다 줬스
Gave everything that I got
이 dedication에 대해 뭘 알아?
What u know bout
얼마나 알아? Don’t lie 몰라 넌
When shit hit da fan
I’ve seen u switch lane
등 돌려 배신하고 발 빼 Yeah

나도 인간 때론 힘들고 지쳐
뜻대로 안 될 때는 걍 다 때려치고 싶어
But I don’t get caught up
In this moment 이 과정을 믿어
I know what I wanna become

다시 불을 지펴
시끄러 짖어대는 개들에겐 울타리 쳐
인생 엿 같은 것들 난 예술로 승화시켜
날 버려 사막에 그럼 난 줄게 두바이를
Assassinate my character
난 부활해 like Jesus

Lights on

English Translation

[Chorus: Jessi]
At the break of dawn when everyone's asleep
I can't sleep again, I'm still awake
I’m sick of all the lonely nights
I need a match to shine the light
I need a fire, I'm lookin' for a spark

[Verse 1]
Is every day like this?
Guess I gotta' go get wit' it
I'm thinking to myself
Oh life can be so silly
Is it you? If it's me
Then only God can judge me (who you)

[Verse 2]
I'm tryna go a little bit higher
Nobody gon' put out my fire
No way, nobody gon' stop me
I'm gonna go and go my own way

[Verse 3]
I stand, I fall
I tried it all
I wandered through a strange valley
A lonely road
But I should go
I have to face you

[Verse 4: Double K]
The beginning was rough
With a matchstick in my hand
I had a vision and put my faith in it
But record labels turn me down
I made a demo tape and
It was amazing, like a firework
Made from just a spark
That's what they say
My story in their eyes
Just a tiny spark, that's meaningless
And disappears when you blow on it
I haven't seen it anywhere
I didn't think about what happens when
You splash water on a flame
Gone, while my enthusiasm is like an oil truck
Spill oil on the track and set it on fire
From then on, the flame gets bigger more and more
I can't go back now
Like Scarface, scarred
I tried to end myself, like pouring water
On a flame to put it out
But it never goes out and never goes away
See what's up

[Chorus: Jessi]
At the break of dawn when everyone's asleep
I can't sleep again, I'm still awake
I’m sick of all the lonely nights
I need a match to shine the light
I need a fire, I'm lookin' for a spark

Lights on, I'm leavin' em' on
Lights on, let it burn
Lights on, I'm leavin' em' on
Lights on, lights on
Light em' on oh, oh, oh

[Verse 5: Double K]
I promise you I'll make you proud
When this dance is done
Who will stand until the end?
I know I gave my all when I grabbed the mic in 98
From the moment I put my first rhyme in a song
I haven't changed one bit
I did it all
Gave everything that I got
What do you know about dedication?
What do you know about?
How much do you know?
Don't lie, you know nothing
When shit hit the fan
I've seen you switch lane
Turn around and betray me, yeah

[Verse 6: Double K]
It's hard, and I get tired of it too
I want to slap myself when I can't do something
But I don’t get caught up
At this moment I believe in the process
I know what I wanna become

[Verse 7: Double K]
It won't backfire
Like a dog behind bars
Barking loudly to get out
Life's a shitty thing
But I put work into my craft
Put me down in the desert
I'll show you Dubai
Assassinate my character
I'm resurrected, like Jesus

[Jessi]
Lights on, I'm leavin' em' on
Lights on, let it burn
Lights on, I'm leavin' em' on
Lights on, lights on
Light em' on oh, oh, oh

Eh, eh, eh, is it not
Is it not over yet (x3)
Eh, eh, eh, tell me
Tell me is it not over yet

Turn the light on, turn the light on
Put em' up (x4) yeah
Turn the light on, turn the light on
Burn it up (x4), eh eh
Turn the light on, turn the light on
Put em' up, put em' up
Now everybody put em' up
Turn the light on, turn the light on
One more time
Now everybody

Lights on, I'm leavin' em' on
Lights on, let it burn
Lights on, I'm leavin' em' on
Lights on, lights on
Light em' on oh, oh, oh

[Chorus: Jessi]
At the break of dawn when everyone's asleep
I can't sleep again, I'm still awake
I’m sick of all the lonely nights
I need a match to shine the light
I need a fire, I'm lookin' for a spark
