Fly to My Room

“Fly to My Room” is the 2nd track of Be, the BTS album released in November 2020. It was produced and written by Cosmo’s Midnight, Joe Femi Griffith, RM, SUGA, j-hope.

This is one of two sub-unit tracks, and is composed of vocalists Jimin and V, and rappers SUGA and j-hope.

A line-by-line translation and explanation follows the clean version. English lyrics are italicised and the stanzas are left as they are in the original. One addition for this album: because so many of the lyrics clearly represent the member that voices them, I’ve made a note of the artist when they sing or rap alone.

Clean Translation

Jimin
🚀  Shall we depart? let me fly to my 
Lower our gazes and to wherever it is, zoom
V
with me now, let me fly to my 
Get me outta my blues
And now I’m feelin’ brand new

 Jimin 
Everyday
It’s stifling, I’m going crazy 
Feel like it’s still day one
Someone please rewind that clock 
This year’s been stolen from me 
I’m still in bed 
I feel nauseous 
It’s killin’ me slowly nah
V
Anyway
I want to leave, any way 
But well, there’s no way to do so 
This room is all I’ve got 
Well then, 
I’ll change this place  
into my world 
Yeah

🚀 

V
Everywhere
Has this place always been like this? 
My surroundings suddenly feel unfamiliar 
I end up lost in old memories 
Even the old desk 
and the changed sunlight 
feel special 
I’m little less lonely nah

Jimin
Better way
I just found a better way
Sometimes we get to know
Broken is beautiful
My body’s light, 
I fly, far away
This thing so surreal
Yeah

🚀

SUGA
This room’s too small, 
yeah, to hold all my dreams 
I land on my bed 
It’s safest here 
It seems joy, sadness, and all other emotions 
are simply accepted here 
Even if this room sometimes becomes a trash can of emotions, 
it takes me into its arms 
j-hope
and welcomes me in 
The toys of my room feel like people 
It’s bustling as if I’ve come out to the city
due to the sound of the TV 
Thoughts can change other thoughts 
Here’s travel that only I can enjoy 
Delivery food is three stars  
Try filling yourself with positivity, I’m full

Line-by-line Translation

🚀 떠나볼까 let me fly to my
Shall we depart? let me fly to my 

시선을 낮추고 어디든 막 zoom
Lower our gazes and to wherever it is, zoom 

지금 나와 let me fly to my
with me now, let me fly to my 

Get me outta my blues

And now I’m feelin’ brand new 🚀 

Everyday

답답해 미치겠어
It’s stifling, I’m going crazy 

Feel like it’s still day one

누가 저 시계를 좀 돌려줘
Someone please rewind that clock
 
올해 다 뺏겼어
This year’s been stolen from me 

아직 난 침대 속
I’m still in bed 

거북해 속이
I feel nauseous 

It’s killin’ me slowly nah

Anyway

떠나고파 any way
I want to leave, any way 

뭐 방법이 없어
But well, there’s no way to do so 

이 방이 내 전부
This room is all I’ve got 

그럼 뭐 (1) 여길 (2)
내 세상으로 (3)
바꿔보지 뭐 (4) 
Well then, (1)
I’ll change (4) this place (2) 
into my world (3) 

Yeah

🚀 

Everywhere

여기가 이랬나 싶어
Has this place always been like this? 

갑자기 낯선 이 풍경
My surroundings suddenly feel unfamiliar 

괜히 추억에 잠겨
I end up lost in old memories 

오래된 책상도
Even the old desk 

달라진 햇빛도
and the changed sunlight 

특별해 보이네
feel special 

I’m little less lonely nah

Better way

I just found a better way

Sometimes we get to know

Broken is beautiful

가벼워 몸이
My body’s light, 

날아가 멀리
I fly, far away

This thing so surreal

Yeah

🚀

이 방은 너무 작지
This room’s too small, 

그래 나의 꿈을 담기에
yeah, to hold all my dreams 

침대 그 위로 착지
I land on my bed 

여기가 제일 안전해
It’s safest here 

어쩜 기쁨도 슬픔도 어떤 감정도
It seems joy, sadness, and all other emotions 

여긴 그저 받아주네
are simply accepted here 

때론 이 방이 감정의 쓰레기통이 돼도
Even if this room sometimes becomes a trash can of emotions, 

날 안아주네
it takes me into its arms 

또 나를 반겨주네
and welcomes me in 

사람들 같은 내방 toy들
The toys of my room feel like people 

마치 시내를 나온 듯이 북적여
It’s bustling as if I’ve come out to the city

TV 소리는
due to the sound of the TV 

생각은 생각이 바꾸면 돼
Thoughts can change other thoughts 

여긴 나만 즐길 수 있는 travel
Here’s travel that only I can enjoy 

배달음식은 ⭐⭐⭐
Delivery food is three stars  

낙관적으로 채워봐, I’m full
Try filling yourself with positivity, I’m full
