에스키모2 (Eskimo2) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The intro sets the mood, giving a cold, chilling vibe, like stepping into an icy storm.

[Verse 1]
The artist talks about his journey, saying he’s made it on his own despite others not understanding his struggles. He compares his life to climbing Everest without help, pushing through harsh conditions. Even when stumbling, he keeps going and plants his flag at the top, just like legendary climber Um Hong-gil. Hard times made him stronger, and now his youth shines like ice—tough, bright, and unbreakable.

[Verse 2]
This verse reflects on a difficult winter, both literally and figuratively. The artist used to be a student scribbling in books, but now, suddenly, people talk about him as if they know him well. He feels overwhelmed but realizes there’s no time to complain. Instead, he must keep pushing forward, enduring the cold and waiting for spring—the symbol of better days ahead.

[Chorus]
No matter how cold it gets or how tough the storms are, they have survived. They’ve fought through the harshest conditions and won. The chorus repeats “Ski, ski, yeah, Eskimo,” symbolizing resilience—like Eskimos surviving in extreme cold. It’s a reminder to endure hardships and push through life’s struggles without giving up.

[Verse 3]
This verse reflects on youth, describing it as cold and fleeting. With time, the artist realizes how many regrets and pains come with it. Instead of holding onto the pain, he empties himself and moves forward. He points out the irony of surviving the cold by exposing himself to it more, like wearing light clothes in winter or warming up in a hot bath. Everyone has their own way of handling struggles, but in the end, the beauty comes after enduring the tough times.

[Verse 4]
The artist feels like waves keep crashing into him, wearing him down over time. He compares himself to someone drowning in alcohol, losing himself. Life’s struggles feel like an endless cycle, but even in the darkest moments, there’s a strange comfort. The beauty of ice and snow disappears when touched, just like fleeting happiness. Still, he acknowledges that after winter, flowers bloom again, meaning hope remains even through the toughest struggles.

[Chorus]
The final chorus reinforces the message of perseverance. No matter how hard life gets, no matter how freezing the world feels, they’ve made it through before, and they’ll do it again. Like an Eskimo surviving the cold, they keep moving forward, enduring until better days come.
