A fast read before the full lyric

The 2009 debut single 'Fire' is a manifesto of arrival, built on Korean and English commands to burn the old rules.

The lyric isn't just about being free; it's about what you have to leave behind to get there.

The way the 'Eh, eh, eh' chants frame the verses, acting less like a hook and more like a crowd already cheering them on.

Editor's note

2NE1's CL declares a new world order

The 2009 debut single 'Fire' is a manifesto of arrival, built on Korean and English commands to burn the old rules.

You better get yours, 'cause I'm gettin' mine

The Korean line '다른 세상으로 지금기만 한 고민은 이제 등을 지고' translates roughly to 'the worries that only knew this world now carry the past on their backs.' It's that specific image, carrying the old world like a weight you're about to shrug off, that grounds the rebellion. The lyric isn't just about being free; it's about what you have to leave behind to get there.

It's a street-level transaction, not a boast. The line makes success sound less like a victory and more like a basic rule everyone should already know.

The way the 'Eh, eh, eh' chants frame the verses, acting less like a hook and more like a crowd already cheering them on.

I go by the name CL of 2NE1

It′s been a long time comin' but we here now

And we ′bout to set the roof on fire, baby (uh-oh)

You better get yours, 'cause I'm gettin′ mine

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh (2NE1)

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh (you better ring the alarm)

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh (we′re 2NE1)

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (hey, hey, hey, hey)

Come in, come in, come in 다른 세상으로

지겹기만 한 고민은 이제 등을 지고

La-la-la-la, 가식없는 나의 콧노래로

Ha-ha-ha-ha, 다신 널 비웃지 못하도록

Now let's 춤을, 춤을, 춤을 춰요, want to get down

보다 큰 꿈을, 꿈을, 꿈을 꿔 세상은

내 맘대로 다 할 수 있기에 큰 자유를 위해

Tonight, tonight, oh

내 눈빛은 빛나는 별들로

내 심장 속을 태우는 저 불빛도

영원하진 않겠지, but 잃을건 없지

Oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh), oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

나 미-미-미-미-미-미-미-치고 싶어

더 빨리 뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰고 싶어

저 높은 빌딩위로, 저 푸른 하늘위로

크게 소-리-리-리-리-리-리-리-치고 싶어

You got the fire, 나의 가슴을 쿵쿵쿵

You got to drop it like it′s hot, 지금 멈추려 하지마 (ooh)

The fire 내 머리속을 붐붐붐

I got to drop it like it's hot, 멈추려 하지마 (hey)

Get up, get up, get up 몇번 넘어져도

믿었던 세상이 날 또다시 배신해도

나-나-나-난 절대 울지않아 바보처럼

엄머-머-머 내숭떨지말아 남들처럼

내가 저 끝까지 데려갈게 follow, follow me

숨이 차 오를만큼 달려주는 나의 가슴이

왠지 나 싫지만은 않아 재밌죠

겁내지 말아, let it go

보다 더 나은 내일로 (let′s go)

내 눈빛은 빛나는 별들로

내 심장 속을 태우는 저 불빛도

영원하진 않겠지, but 잃을건 없지

Oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh), oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah (oh)

나 미-미-미-미-미-미-미-치고 싶어

더 빨리 뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰고 싶어

저 높은 빌딩위로, 저 푸른 하늘위로

크게 소-리-리-리-리-리-리-리-치고 싶어 (switch it up)

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh (2NE1)

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh (you better ring the alarm)

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh (we're 2NE1)

Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh

머리가 찰랑, 찰랑, 찰랑, 찰랑 대도록

엉덩일 살랑, 살랑, 살랑, 살랑 흔들어

머리가 찰랑, 찰랑, 찰랑, 찰랑 대도록

엉덩일 살랑, 살랑, 살랑, 살랑 흔들어, uh

나 미-미-미-미-미-미-미-치고 싶어 (oh-oh)

더 빨리 뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰-뛰고 싶어

저 높은 빌딩위로, 저 푸른 하늘위로

크게 소-리-리-리-리-리-리-리-치고 싶어

언제나 오늘처럼만 자유롭고 싶은거
