GRIT Lyrics (English Translation) – BE:FIRST

GRIT (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
Having strong willpower and determination.

[Verse 1]
The artist looks back on earlier times when success felt far away. Even after gaining fame and money, it doesn’t feel as valuable as it seemed. Being underrated never bothered him—he’s already made peace with it. He’s part of the entertainment world but has earned his spot by grinding hard from the bottom.

[Verse 2]
He talks about being in really tough situations, maybe feeling isolated or stuck, like in a remote place untouched by the outside world. He references looking across the sea from Mt. Fuji and moving through huge cities, possibly symbolizing a journey through challenges and big moments in life or career.

[Pre-Chorus]
He’s been through a lot of hard times, and he’s missed many chances. Now he’s unsure about what path to take or what to go after next, but the hunger to achieve more is still strong.

[Chorus]
He holds something rare and special in his hands, but he’s unsure if it’s truly worth all the pain. The success he’s reached may look glorious, but it’s come with sacrifice—like it’s been paid for in blood. Even with the doubts, what keeps him going is the grit inside him.

[Post-Chorus]
He’s proudly repeating that he’s got grit—inner strength and drive that keeps him going no matter what.

[Verse 3]
He’s frustrated with fake critics who act like they know everything. He feels like he’s already on a different level—off the ground and aiming for something huge, like flying through space. The group is so powerful now, even things that seem unstoppable feel like they’re being pulled in by their energy.

[Bridge]
He doesn’t fit into the usual idea of success. He and his team come from a different background but still manage to stand out and win. They’re like everyday heroes, strong and grounded, doing things their own way.

[Pre-Chorus]
He repeats how he’s faced many hard times and let good chances slip by. Still, he’s eager to chase something meaningful and important.

[Chorus]
He’s holding something no one else has, but deep down he’s unsure if it’s truly success or just something that cost him too much. The pressure and pain are real, yet grit is what keeps him moving forward.

[Post-Chorus]
Once again, he emphasizes that grit is what defines him—he’s not giving up.

[Outro]
The ending keeps repeating the same message: grit is his power, his drive, and what keeps him standing through everything.
