Worry (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
Yo

[Verse 1]
This verse paints a dark picture of the artist’s difficult family and neighborhood life. It starts with a shocking and painful situation involving his older brother and mother, showing how deep the family’s troubles run. The setting is a tight-knit housing complex where even the clinic receptionist is someone the artist knows personally, which makes the pain feel very close. The mention of the father waiting for medical treatment adds another layer of struggle and hardship. There’s also a reference to a scary event near Takao Station, reminding us that the place holds painful memories and dangers. The artist reflects on how long he’s been involved in hip-hop but feels like his songs still carry the weight of all the struggles he’s seen and lived. His feet aren’t marked by poverty, but his hands hurt from expressing his pain through music. He describes moving through the city like in a shooting game, alert and ready, always responding to what life throws at him with sharp words, but those responses feel empty sometimes, like repeating phrases that don’t really change anything. The memory of a dark figure from the past, Asahara, haunts him as a reminder of pain and loss.

[Chorus]
Here, the artist talks about moving forward without getting stuck in the past. He remembers the roads and small paths he took, which felt alive and magical under the setting sun, moments that seemed like a dream he wished would never end. Despite the beauty, life around him kept going in the same tough way. He knows that the challenges he faces are coming because of his past actions, and now he’s stopped waiting passively. Instead, he’s ready to face whatever is ahead, accepting that hardship is part of his journey.

[Verse 2]
This verse tells a story about meeting a guy named Wally, who seems mysterious and dangerous. The artist is waiting for him late at night, but Wally is late. Everyone warns not to get involved with Wally because he’s known as a thief and someone who causes trouble. Despite the warnings, the artist secretly met him and hasn’t told anyone. He tries to believe Wally isn’t harmful to him, but his friends think he’s being foolish. They keep telling him not to lend Wally money, but he does anyway, hoping to get it back. Wally doesn’t drink or smoke, which seems unusual, and even buys the artist meals, making him trust Wally more. But by the time the artist realizes something is wrong, Wally has disappeared, leaving him feeling betrayed and late to understand what happened. His usual way of “lying in wait,” or being prepared, now feels like a story he tells himself about what went wrong. The artist is frustrated and wants Wally found fast.

[Chorus]
Again, the artist reflects on the past without dwelling on it, remembering the paths he took and the moments that felt like dreams under the sunset. He wishes those good times could last but knows the city keeps moving on no matter what. He’s aware that he’s moving toward tough times because of his past and has stopped waiting for things to get better on their own. Now, he’s ready to face the difficulties head-on, accepting his journey as it is.
