GET LIT by Stray Kids Lyrics Meaning – Unpacking the Youthful Rebellion and Celebratory Antics
Lyrics
Hey, hey, whoa
Hey, hey, hey, yeah
That’s okay (okay) 바로 중독 (yeah)
아직 덜 빠진 애들 행동들이 굼떠 (ooh)
철없게 (철없게) we’re gonna pour it up (ha)
아 물론 건전하게 탄산으로 퍼부어
더 악 질러 소음공해 전까지 놀아 (wow)
저기 저 멍청이는 멍때리다 knock down (let’s go)
We’re gonna rock it now, so play like a gangsta
You can’t stop us 백날 쫓아 봐야 안 된다 yeah
할일 없이 멍때리네
미친 것처럼 벽 보고 헛소리 oh, yeah, yeah
거참 소름 돋게
또 할 거라고 생기지 일거리 산더미 oh, yeah
I don’t wanna do it, I don’t wanna do it
그냥 다 내려놓고 마냥 미친 듯이 놀래
넥타이 끈 푼 우린 멋쟁이들
내일이 오건 말건 걍 다 죽어보자
Oh, yeah
We’re not gonna die young, oh, yeah
부려 사치 today, I’m so cocky
오늘 우린 부르주아 어깨 펴고 다녀
당당히 사람들 앞에서 춤사위도
발 구르자 폼생폼사여
간밤에 부던 바람은 춤바람인고
Swerve, swerve, hey
Swerve, swerve, whoa
Swerve, swerve, hey, shh
오늘 컨셉 중요치 않아 술렁이네 발걸음부터 rambo
Du-du, walk it like I talk it, never limbo
풀린 눈이 지금 기분 증명하는 symbol
기분은 오르락내리락 없이 저 위에서 ping pong
할일 없이 멍때리네
미친 것처럼 벽 보고 헛소리 oh, yeah, yeah
거참 소름 돋게
또 할 거라고 생기지 일거리 산더미 oh, yeah
I don’t wanna do it, I don’t wanna do it
그냥 다 내려놓고 마냥 미친 듯이 놀래
넥타이 끈 푼 우린 멋쟁이들
내일이 오건 말건 걍 다 죽어보자
Oh, yeah
We’re not gonna die young, oh, yeah
부려 사치 today, I’m so cocky
오늘 우린 부르주아 어깨 펴고 다녀
당당히 사람들 앞에서 춤사위도
발 구르자 폼생폼사여
간밤에 부던 바람은 춤바람인고
오늘이 지나면
내일의 해가 뜨고 또 시작이야
죽었던 표정 풀어
오늘만큼은 shall we dance all night? yeah
터져 버린 스피커
폰에서 음악 틀고 놀아 그냥 feel로 (yeah, yeah)
부숴 버려 킹콩처럼
꼭대기로 올라 소리 질러 ha
Let’s go
Hey
Hoo, yeah
Hey
Yes, here we go
오늘 우린 부르주아 어깨 펴고 다녀
당당히 사람들 앞에서 춤사위도
발 구르자 폼생폼사여 (hold up)
간밤에 부던 바람은 춤바람인고 (휭)
In an era where the meticulous strands of pop culture blend seamlessly into the tapestry of youth expression, ‘GET LIT’ by Stray Kids emerges not just as a song, but as a statement. With its unapologetic lyrics and raucous beats, the track becomes an anthem for those ready to shatter the mundane and evoke the spirit of elated defiance.
Stray Kids, known for their boundary-pushing music and raw energy, encapsulates a mood that resonates with their generation’s desire to break free from the constrictions of societal expectations. ‘GET LIT,’ a firecracker in their extensive discography, bursts with messages about living in the moment and the carefree indulgence in life’s fleeting pleasures.
Ignite the Flame of Youthful Indulgence
As Stray Kids command listeners to revel in the present with a lively ‘We’re not gonna die young,’ they stoke the embers of a youthful appetite for extravagance and self-confidence. The verse ‘부려 사치 today, I’m so cocky’ mirrors today’s youth’s inclination to splurge on experiences — a slap in the face to the age-old adage of saving for a rainy day. It isn’t just about living; it’s about doing so audaciously and with no holds barred.
Duality plagues the life of the contemporary adolescent, caught in a purgatory between responsibility and liberation. ‘GET LIT’ takes this dichotomy and flips it into a colossal celebration. It’s an incitement to dance until the world blurs, an urge to break from the everyday, a call to arms for those stuck in the limbo of life’s expectations.
An Ode to the Reckless
With the infectious chorus line, ‘오늘만큼은 shall we dance all night,’ Stray Kids transforms the night into a canvas for reckless abandon. The song is not only a siren call beckoning to the dance floor, but also a deeper reflection of the contemporary youth’s escapism — an invitation to embrace the dance, unravel constraints, and ultimately, to celebrate the transient.
This refrain encapsulates a sentiment echoed across generations, yet unique in its brazen call to action. Stray Kids doesn’t suggest; they command participation in this metaphorical uprising against the ordinary – against a backdrop of a world where the pressure to perform and conform is omnipresent.
Cultural Symbols and Swagger
With motifs like ‘Du-du, walk it like I talk it, never limbo,’ the lyrics pull in various pop culture references and assertive language that resonate with the swagger youth aspires to embody. These lines evoke a certain energy, an enticing representation of the self-assured attitude that Stray Kids both possess and preach to their listeners.
‘GET LIT’ channels Stray Kids’ own brash charisma and the cultural lexicon they’re a part of. Significantly, they adapt their music to their international audience, melding Korean with English phrases to widen the reach of their anthemic message, and ensuring the invitation to ‘GET LIT’ transcends all linguistic barriers.
Decoding the Hidden Rebellion
Beneath the surface-level exuberance and beats that rattle the spine, there lies a pulse of dissent. ‘GET LIT’ cleverly embeds resistance against complacency and banality within its lyrics. It’s this hidden rebellion, stitched into the text, that fuels the song’s resounding impact.
The carefully crafted juxtaposition of words like ‘살다 보니 실컷’ against images of mundane lethargy highlights a critique on passive living. The track urges listeners to push against the lull of the everyday and embody the free-spirited revolt they’re capable of. Stray Kids aren’t just making music – they’re making statements.
Lines that Resonate with Rebellious Hearts
‘내일이 오건 말건 걍 다 죽어보자’ — perhaps one of the most memorable lines, epitomizes the spirit of ‘GET LIT.’ It presents a carefree dismissal of future consequences and urges full immersion in the joys of now, embodying the pursuit of a thrill that hallmarks the youth’s fight against the humdrum.
Each verse is a celebration of life, a nod to the here and now and a thumbing of the nose at the unrelenting passage of time. Stray Kids manages to encapsulate within their lyrics, a battle cry that echoes in the hearts of the young and the young at heart – a call to live loudly, boldly, and utterly unchained.
