About This Track

'Inner Child' is a meditation on the weight of childhood struggle and the possibility of healing through connection. V addresses his younger self with tenderness, recalling hardship and the relentless pursuit of distant light. The song moves between acknowledgement of past pain and a gentle insistence on change, its repeated refrain a quiet promise rather than a declaration. The track finds V offering reassurance to that younger version, suggesting that present stability can reach backwards through time. He speaks of wanting to embrace the thorns alongside the roses, to witness and accept the full shape of what was endured. There's a reaching quality to the bridge, where he extends his hand across the distance between then and now, asking if it might be held, offering his own inner world as a kind of constellation to navigate by.

"Inner Child" is a track by V (뷔), from the album MAP OF THE SOUL : 7, released 21st February 2020. It's filed under K-Pop. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Inner Child

[방탄소년단 - Inner Child 가사]

[Verse 1: V]

그때 우리 참 많이 힘들었지

너무나 먼 저 하늘의 별

올려보면서

그때의 넌 은하수를 믿지 않아

하지만 난 봐버렸는 걸 은색 galaxy

아팠을 거야 너무 힘들었을 거야

끝없는 빛을 쫓아 난 달렸거든

[Chorus: V]

아릿해와 그 여름날의 공기

너무 차갑던 잿빛 거리의 소리

숨을 마시고 네 문을 두드리네

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

[Verse 2: V]

이제 우리 많이 웃었음 해

괜찮을 거야 오늘의 내가 괜찮으니까

어제의 너 이젠 다 보여

움트던 장미 속 많은 가시 안아주고 싶어

미소진 꼬마 마냥 해맑게 웃던 아이

그런 널 보면 자꾸 웃음이 나와

[Chorus: V]

아릿해와 그 여름날의 공기

너무 차갑던 잿빛 거리의 소리

숨을 마시고 네 문을 두드리네

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

[Bridge: V]

Tonight 네게 내 손을 맞닿으면

그 손을 잡아줄 수 있니?

내가 너가 될 테니

넌 나의 은하수들을 보면 돼

저 별들을 맞으면 돼

나의 세상을 네게 줄게

너의 눈을 비춘 빛들은 지금의 나니까

You’re my boy, my boy

My boy, my boy, my boy

[Outro: V]

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change

We gon' change
