BTS & Zara Larsson - A Brand New Day (English Translation) Lyrics
Fear and dread
Will I be able to overcome them?
[Verse 1: V]
As if hypnotized
Pulled me and led me through
As if in a trance
I became able to listen to the voice inside of me
[Pre-Chorus: V & Zara Larsson]
Though untouchable, the future's fragments are clearly seen
A brand new world, dreams’ sentences embrace me (part of me)
[Chorus: V & J-Hope]
On the day, I found myself
(A brand new day)
Go up the stairs of light
The moment we've dreamt of
(We know the world)
Show myself to the world
[Post-Chorus: Zara Larsson]
Oh I can be there, yeah
I'll be there, be there for you, oh
I know you got them big dreams too
You can show me yours if you want to
They’re beautiful
We can look at them for hours
And surrender to their power, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Zara Larsson]
I see new worlds, these visions
They burn inside of me (inside of me, oh yeah)
Just out of touch
But still close enough to be part of me (part of me)
[Chorus: Zara Larsson & J-Hope]
I'll be there when the day comes
(A brand new day)
Head up in the sunlight, baby
I'll be there when the day comes
When the day comes, I'll be there for you, baby
(We know the world)
Show the world just who I can be
[Bridge: J-Hope]
Oh yeah, though I was fearful, I didn't lower my head
Though I was dreadful, I just ran ahead
Because I believed in myself even at crossroads of persecution
Going my way, choices that are like mine (I heard)
Voice getting louder, the sound of breathing from happiness
I suddenly realized, I would make my dream come true, haha
I'll be there when the day comes
(Oh, I'll be there)
(Oh, I'll be there)
(A brand new day)
Head up in the sunlight, baby (baby)
I’ll be there when the day comes (when the day comes)
Oh, I’ll be there
(We know the world)
Show the world just who I can be (yeah)
[Outro: J-Hope & Zara Larsson]
Fear and dread
Will I be able to overcome them?
Fear and dread (oh, I'll be there, oh, I’ll be there)
Will I be able to overcome them? (oh)
