Path/Road

Watch >> https://youtu.be/7kC79mA2kMw

With all the awards, success and worldwide recognition bangtan got this year, looking back at their debut days is totally worth.
I mentioned this before, I wasn't an army when they first debuted.
Still I can't help but feel proud with their growth.
From someone who doubt their own selves thinking if would they able make it...if they had the choices to change their path, would they changed it?
The lyrics is one of my favourite along with tomorrow and lost.

Here's the lyrics taken from btsdiary blog (cr.)

It started with Eminem, Garion, Epik High
I exceed imitation I write my own rap then carve them in
Now that I see, I’ve somehow gotten to Hongdae
All of my life savings at the time all (?) the teacher
But We Dunno We Dunno We Dunno
The future allowed no time to breathe and tied me up while I was dreaming
The trap of an abandoned reality
Oh the trap of one’s youth
My fiery heart lost to my cold head
While I had blind faith that my choice was the right one, 
something that I can’t identify as an angel or Satan says
“Wouldn’t you like to rap properly"
Yes No There is no time to hesitate
I, who didn’t want to make an even bigger idiot out of myself,
came to this place and 3 years have since passed
Some say art is long, life is short
But now for me art is life, life is sports
Just do it on
 Countless measures of time has passed and it’s 2013
I remained as trainee for 3 years
Before I knew it, I’ve changed from a high school student to an oversized child
Grey hairs of greed and ambition increase and the many friends I had split off one by one
Lonely without family, I greet my third spring in Seoul alone
I thought my worries will ease with the debut in front of my nose;
I closed my eyes to the present that could not be altered
Reality was different, even when my peers tried to keep me
I walked the lightless tunnels on my own
I thought I was alone but I’ve learned that we are seven.  
No longer barefoot, wearing shoes called Bangtan
We go on forward another step, newer than the last.
Towards the fourth spring we’ll greet in Seoul
 It’s the year 2010, my steps head to Seoul.
I, who started out just loving dance is soon to stand on stage
Until then I combat the many pains and scars and prepare myself
I nurture my notion to bend rather than to break and run for 3 years and ignite the stars in my heart
Now see me anew I carve ‘Bangtan’ into a blank page that means the whole world.
I walk towards my brighter future I put on a smile for the further days.
Would I have changed? 
If I had chosen a different path, if I had stopped and looked back 
What will I get to see? 
At the end of this road, where you would be standing


I used to study engineering for four years
and now I am a teacher for two years
Still there's voice inside me, do you really want to be a teacher for the rest of your life?
I met my high school teacher and he asked me the same and I replied yes I love to teach then he said,
"you never try to be other than teacher, how do u know if u would be happy doing other things or not"

Would I have changed if I had chosen a different path?
What will I get to see if I stopped and looked back?
Where I would be standing at the end of this road called life?

Of course I want a better life to live in, but I dream of having a greater life hereafter 
I have one bigger mission than just a career...


What is your path?

  1. I am studying engineering too. But the pressure is sometimes so unbearable, specially during end semester exams that I want to run away. I joined this area mainly because my parents thought it would be good, I am still not sure if this was the right path for me. I could have chosen something else but their are hardships everywhere specially when a person like me is not sure of my passion. I will go on maybe in future I find a better option, it's never late right? I would like to believe that ^-^. My mother is a teacher, they say teaching is the best way to give out to the world, I personally have a lot of respect for them as I owe them so much for helping me be what I am.
