Praying Details

Praying Lyrics

[Verse 1]
눈 감으면
어김없이 덮쳐오지
선명하게, mmm
긴 허공 위로
끝없이 추락하며 부서져버린
내 모습이, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
커다란 파도에 삼켜지듯
어둠 속에 내 맘이 꺼져갈 때
늘 나를 깨우는 건 (Ooh)
그 손길 같아 아마도

[Chorus]
Oh, yeah, oh-woah
굳어진 손 끝에
붉어진 두 볼에
I’m feeling the air
움츠러든 맘에
숨어있던 날개
펼쳐내
바람결에 흩어지는 숨
춤을 추듯 자유로운 move
Fly again, 저 태양을 향해
비로소 시작될 new way

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
New way

[Verse 2]
늘 위태롭던
벼랑 그 끝에서
날 환히 비추는 light, yeah (비추 light)
Yeah, I know it was you (It was you)

[Pre-Chorus]
다정히 토닥여
어루만진 온기에
더 이상 두렵지 않은 밤
가려진 눈을 떠 마주한 세상

[Chorus]
Oh, yeah, oh-woah
굳어진 손 끝에
붉어진 두 볼에
I’m feeling the air
움츠러든 맘에
숨어있던 날개
펼쳐내
바람위로 떠오르는 숨
춤을 추듯 자유로운 move
Fly again, 아주 눈부시게
비로소 시작될 my way

[Outro]
I’m feeling the air
I’m feeling the air (Fly again)
I’m feeling the air (Oh, fly again)
I’m feeling you, babe

Praying Meaning

[Verse 1]
SEULGI introduces the song with a deeply introspective moment, describing a recurring sense of being overwhelmed by something inescapable. The imagery of “긴 허공 위로 끝없이 추락하며 부서져버린 내 모습” (endlessly falling through the void and shattering) conveys a feeling of helplessness and emotional turmoil. She finds herself trapped in a cycle of pain, struggling against forces that seem too strong to resist.

[Pre-Chorus]
As SEULGI faces emotional darkness, she likens it to being swallowed by an immense wave. Just as she feels herself fading, something awakens her—a presence or force that feels like a comforting touch. This moment signifies the turning point where hope begins to emerge, hinting at the idea that even in despair, there is a guiding light that urges her to keep going.

[Chorus]
The chorus is an explosion of renewal and liberation. SEULGI describes a physical and emotional awakening, where she feels “움츠러든 맘에 숨어있던 날개 펼쳐내” (unfolding the hidden wings of her timid heart). The wind, dance-like movements, and flying imagery symbolize breaking free from constraints and embracing freedom. The phrase “비로소 시작될 new way” (finally, a new way begins) reinforces the theme of transformation, as she steps into a brighter, more confident version of herself.

[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus subtly extends the theme of new beginnings with the repetition of “New way.” This moment serves as a breath of fresh air, allowing the listener to absorb the feeling of release and empowerment before diving deeper into SEULGI’s journey.

[Verse 2]
SEULGI recalls standing on the edge of uncertainty, feeling vulnerable and unstable. However, instead of remaining lost, she finds light—”날 환히 비추는 light” (a light that brightly illuminates me). The realization that she is not alone fuels her strength, marking a moment of clarity where she acknowledges the force guiding her forward.

[Pre-Chorus]
This section mirrors the earlier pre-chorus but now carries a deeper sense of comfort and reassurance. SEULGI describes being gently embraced by warmth, a stark contrast to the overwhelming darkness she previously faced. The phrase “더 이상 두렵지 않은 밤” (a night that is no longer fearful) indicates that she has conquered her fears and is ready to embrace the world with open eyes.

[Chorus]
The second chorus expands upon the previous one, reinforcing the uplifting message of self-liberation. SEULGI once again unfolds her wings, but this time, the movement is even more radiant—”아주 눈부시게” (so brilliantly). The shift from “new way” to “my way” highlights a personal evolution; she is no longer just stepping into a new path, but fully embracing it as her own.

[Outro]
The outro serves as a final moment of reflection and triumph. SEULGI repeats “I’m feeling the air”, symbolizing how she has fully embraced freedom and transformation. The closing line, “I’m feeling you, babe,” can be interpreted as a reference to the guiding force that led her out of the darkness, whether it be an internal realization, a supportive presence, or faith. This marks the completion of her journey from struggle to strength, closing the song with a sense of peace and empowerment.
