## Korean

Ay-Yo! Look
Things will never be the same, like

Are you ready? (Woo!)
닥쳐오는 파란 그 패러다임 (Ha!)
경고 속에 (Yeah!)
영원했던 존재들의 반전
It's up to you, what you wanna do?

(Whoa) How we do that? How we do that?
Clock is ticking, how we do that?
우린 지속되어야 해
너의 무대 영화보다
거친 시나리오 속에 (Oh)
The show must go on
본능대로 소리치고 놀아대고 (Oh, oh)
Catching every eye
뭘 자꾸 결론 내려고 하나
느껴 no doubt

그냥 불러 봐 "Ay-Yo!"
우리처럼 놀아 여기가 Valhalla
싫은 사람, lay low
즐기는 놈인데
누가 내게 맞서 와?
Ay-Yo! 나는 끝내 걸어가
그 발자국 뒤에
재조차 남지 않게
Ballin' big time and I say "Ay-Yo!"

Ay-Yo!

파격의 걸음
그것은 a tide of rage, yeah
갈구한 신념 깨어진 doctrine
Perfect stranger, 양 떼를 부르니
Sick of the games, you're craving for a change up
보이지 않는 그 가치들의 무게
잘 봐 나만의 플랜

Are you ready? (Hoo!)
불확실한 내일의 태양에 (Ha!)
아스라이 (Yeah!)
스쳐가 사라진 유성에
그 순간도 네가 있으니

(Whoa) 쉽지 않을 거라나
말들이 많아
갈수록 이거 재미나
우린 지속되어야 해 (마치 twilight)
신화 속의 존재 그들처럼 (Oh)
The show must go on
무너져도 누군가는 일어나고 (Oh, oh)
상처 없이도
내일은 다를 거라
그 누가 감히 말해
그냥 불러 봐

그냥 불러 봐 "Ay-Yo!"
우리처럼 놀아 여기가 Valhalla
싫은 사람, lay low
즐기는 놈인데
누가 내게 맞서 와?
Ay-Yo! 나는 끝내 걸어가 (나는 끝내 걸어가)
그 발자국 뒤에
재조차 남지 않게
Ballin' big time and I say "Ay-Yo!"

Ay-Yo!

Hey, I see you
너의 맘 속에 걱정들 전부
다 내려 놔
My attention's on you, babe
Tell me, babe
We can go all night long
All night long (Ayy)

쉬이 모두 덮어 버릴
시퍼런 밤이 오니
넌 절대 눈을 감되
잠들지 않기 (Woo!)
손에 뭘 쥐었냐고
어디로 가냐고 (Yeah)
따라와 봐 훔쳐봐
난 통과해 웜홀
새벽은 오니 (Yeah)
갈망을 멈추지 마
고민 없이

그냥 불러 봐 "Ay-Yo!" (Ay-Yo!)
우리처럼 놀아 여기가 Valhalla
싫은 사람 (Come on!), lay low (Lay low)
즐기는 놈인데
누가 내게 맞서 와?
Ay-Yo! 나는 끝내 걸어가
그 발자국 뒤에
재조차 남지 않게
Ballin' big time and I say "Ay-Yo!"

## English Translation

Ay-Yo! Look
Things will never be the same, like

Are you ready? (Woo!)
The storm of paradigm comes crashing (Ha!)
In the warning (Yeah!)
A sudden twist for immortal beings
It's up to you, what you wanna do?

(Whoa) How we do that? How we do that?
Clock is ticking, how we do that?
We gotta last
In the scenario that's bigger than the stage (Oh)
The show must go on
Rumble by your instincts (Oh, oh)
Catching every eye
What you keep tryin' to reason out?
Feel it, no doubt

Just say it out loud, "Ay-Yo!"
Do it like us, this is Valhalla
Haters, lay low
I be enjoying
So who gon' beat me?
Ay-Yo! In the end, I make my way
Leaving behind nothing, not even ashes
Ballin' big time and I say "Ay-Yo!"

Ay-Yo!

Each step on impact is a tide of rage, yeah
Thirsting for faith, shattered doctrine
Perfect stranger, calling on the sheep
Sick of the games, you're craving for a change up
The weight of invisible values
Just watch, I got the plan

Are you ready? (Hoo!)
In the sun of an uncertain tomorrow (Ha!)
A shooting star (Yeah!)
Shimmers and blinks out
But even in that moment, I have you

(Whoa) Not gonna be easy, that's what they say
But it just gets more fun
We gotta last (Like twilight)
Just like the heroes in the myths (Oh)
The show must go on
From rubble, someone still rises (Oh, oh)
If you remain unscarred
Will your tomorrow change?
Who dares speak?

Just say it out loud, "Ay-Yo!"
Do it like us, this is Valhalla
Haters, lay low
I be enjoying
So who gon' beat me?
Ay-Yo! In the end, I make my way (In the end, I make my way)
Leaving behind nothing, not even ashes
Ballin' big time and I say "Ay-Yo!"

Ay-Yo!

Hey, I see you
Put down all the worries in your mind
My attention's on you, babe
Tell me, babe
We can go all night long
All night long (Ayy)

The plain blue night is coming
Covering up everything
Close your eyes
But don't ever fall asleep (Woo!)
"What you got in your hand? Where you goin'?" They ask (Yeah)
Come try me
I pass through the wormhole
Dawn will break (Yeah)
Don't kill your desire, don't overthink it

Just say it out loud, "Ay-Yo!" (Ay-Yo!)
Do it like us, this is Valhalla
Haters (Come on!), lay low (Lay low)
I be enjoying
So who gon' beat me?
Ay-Yo! In the end, I make my way
Leaving behind nothing, not even ashes
Ballin' big time and I say "Ay-Yo!"
