UDAGAWA GENERATION Lyrics Meaning

[Refrain]
The repeated “Yeah Yeah Yeah” creates an energetic, rebellious vibe, emphasizing a free-spirited and youthful attitude. It sets the mood for the song, highlighting a sense of excitement and determination to live life on their own terms.

[Verse 1]
The lyrics express frustration and confusion about being told they don’t belong. The cityscape, with its towering buildings and hidden moon, represents feeling lost and trapped in an unfamiliar environment, searching for direction.

[Verse 2]
This part conveys a strong desire to live without restrictions, even if it leads to pain or mistakes. They want to be seen as mature, but deep down, they just want to enjoy life without constantly being judged.

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s an acknowledgment that youth allows for reckless behavior, but they’re careful not to cross major boundaries. They enjoy the thrill of walking the fine line between right and wrong, uncertain about where life will take them.

[Chorus]
The phrase “Unknown Unknown” reflects the uncertainty of the future. They reject the idea of following someone else’s predetermined path and instead want to live freely, enjoying life without worrying about what’s next. They find joy in staying the same and don’t see the point in conforming.

[Refrain]

[Verse 4]
They reject being labeled as part of “Gen Z” or any other marketing-driven category. Instead, they assert their individuality, refusing to be defined by stereotypes.

[Pre-Chorus]
This verse highlights how their once-favorite places no longer feel welcoming. The city has changed, pushing them out, and they feel frustrated by being treated as outsiders.

[Chorus]
They express the feeling of not belonging anywhere. If they’re constantly shut out, they’d rather stay in their own space, avoiding unrealistic dreams about the future.

[Bridge]
There’s a conflict between societal expectations and their own beliefs. They see both the good and bad around them, leading to a struggle with what is considered right and wrong. They question their purpose and wonder what they truly want in life.

[Chorus]
Reflects their hope that, even in an unfamiliar place, they will eventually find something meaningful. They long for a sense of belonging in a city they once admired from afar.
