IRL (English Translation) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah I’ve been up Sleepless nights
A little clumsy with fear
But a dream-like excitement keep on dreaming, oh yeah
I keep running through the same time
But I don’t know got me round and around
The closer I get
The clearer it gets

[Refrain]
Endlessly looking for you Babe
Show me a brighter light Every day
Everything comes true Déjà vu, it’s true

[Pre-Chorus]
Drive over the waves Shaking tide
Take me among the stars
I’m not afraid, go up higher
Will you look at me

[Chorus]
Yeah If I, I can see it in my eyes
Fill up the dazzling light I dreamed of every day
You and I
In real life
Oh If I When I wake up from a long dream
Don’t disappear Stay by my side like now
Hold me tight
In real life

[Verse 2]
Actually, when I’m a little anxious
And hold my breath several times
I keep Pinch both cheeks
Was it just a dream? I’m afraid it’ll disappear
I’ll bite my fingernails again

[Verse 3]
But I never stop believing
Even if I fall down on my way
I hold my breath and run towards you everyday
My dreams that are quickly spreading and filling up
Make the stopped time move again – eh

[Refrain]
I endlessly look for you Babe
Show me a brighter light Every day
Everything comes true Déjà vu, It’s true

[Pre-Chorus]
Drive over the waves Shaking tide
Take me among the stars
I’m not afraid, I’ll go up higher
Will you look at me

[Chorus]
Yeah If I, I can see it in my eyes
Filling up the dazzling light that I dreamed of every day
You and I
In real life
Oh If I When I wake up from a long dream
Don’t disappear, stay by my side like now
Hold me tight
In real life

[Bridge]
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
Want you to hold me
Night night, sleepless night
Might might, I just might

[Outro]
Ride above the clouds
Yeah I’m flying high
That’s how I feel
The sleepless night deepens
Ride
Yeah I’m flying high
That’s how I feel
The sleepless night is coming

The artist is caught between vulnerability and hope, where anticipation fuels the emotional journey.

[Refrain]
This section emphasizes relentless pursuit. ifeye continues to reach out toward someone or something meaningful, drawn in by a recurring, almost predestined feeling—described as déjà vu. The request for light to be shone every day points to a desire for consistency, truth, and emotional illumination in a world full of uncertainty.

There’s a request for emotional acknowledgment—“will you look at me?”—that shows a deep desire to be seen and understood in the climb toward something greater.

[Chorus]
The chorus brings the dream into the present, asserting belief in a shared reality—“in real life.” ifeye expresses awe at the brightness of what they’ve always imagined and pleads for that dream not to vanish. The phrase “hold me tight” speaks to the need for reassurance and grounding love, highlighting a vulnerability that hopes for permanence.

The repetition of “in real life” underscores that this isn’t just a fantasy anymore—it’s a heartfelt wish to live the dream out loud and side by side.

[Bridge]
This bridge softens into a more intimate moment. The fragmented lines reflect quiet vulnerability, with ifeye gently asking to be held during another sleepless night. There’s an internal push-pull between emotional fragility and potential—“I just might”—hinting at the cusp of emotional clarity.
