You can call me artist (Artist)

[Refrain 1: SUGA, RM]
なんだっていい 誰かの後ろ指なんて
気にしないから その理由がなんだって
I know what I am (I know what I am)
I know what I want (I know what I want)
I never gon' change (I never gon' change)
I never gon' trade
(Trade off, uh uh)

[Pre-Chorus: V, RM, Jimin]
Oh, why you all 何を騒いでるの?

[Verse 2: j-hope, SUGA]
Face off just like ジョン・ウー, ay
Top star with that spotlight, ay
時にスーパーヒーローになって
回す君のAnpanman
時間 足りない
迷う暇すらない
I do my thang (I do my thang)
I love myself (I love myself)
[Refrain 2: Jung Kook, V]
I love myself (I love myself), I love my fans
Love my dance and my what
俺の中に 色んな自分が何人もいる
今日も違う自分がいて
自分をさらけ出していく
悩まないぜ先へ
Runnin' man
Runnin' man
Runnin' man (Prra)

[Pre-Chorus: Jin, SUGA, Jung Kook, Jimin]

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

On the Japanese version of BTS' lead single, “IDOL,” the band praises their own selves, like the original song. By combining traditional Korean musical elements, including janggu with modern hip-hop groove, the group blends modern and traditional Korean music instruments into one rather than pure pop music, creating a refreshing and surprising beat.
