kim namjoon didnât battle intense self loathe and anxiety growing up, give up so much for his music career and leave his bright future in education behind, for you to just ignore him and leave him out.
min yoongi didnât go through clinical depression and social anxiety disorder, neglect his studies for music and get no support from anyone but still do music, for you to call him useless and lazy.
jung hoseok didnât wake up early in the morning to skip school and go to dance practices to distract himself from his mental conflicts and work so hard to get recruited, for you to call him a sidekick.
kim seokjin didnât leave an entire field of his potential acting career to give music a chance, work his brains out to practice singing because he was recruited when he had no background of music, for you to call him talentless or âonly a visualâ.
park jimin didnât grow up comparing himself to others, work hard to maintain his grades at school and work harder to practice contemporary dancing, starve himself to be an idol and skip breaks to practice singing and dancing for you to call him âoverratedâ.
kim taehyung did not come to seoul wearing a fancy jacket his mom gave him so âthe city boys wouldnât judge himâ because he came from a poor family, sit near trashcans as he watched the rest practice and vlog because he wasnât revealed as a member, for you to say heâs âjust weirdâ and isnât talented.
jeon jungkook did not leave his family, friends, education and his entire childhood behind and come to seoul at the age of 13 to pursue music when he wasnât even sure he could, grow up thinking he had to wear masks in front of people and battle social anxiety, for you to paint him in a bad light and call him rude when he really isnât whatsoever, and call him overrated.
bts did not go through so fucking much, come from a small entertainment company where they trained and put everything on the line despite being told it was useless and they were nothing, look for people that would attend their concerts, give their everything to the army, make so many contributions towards, not only the music industry but also towards humanity and the youth of our generation, spread love and stand strong and handle all situations maturely and professionally despite all the unnecessary hate, criticism, death threats they had gotten, work their asses off, starve themselves and sacrifice their sleep to practice and maintain their personal lives and give back to their family, society and friends for you to say they are âjust a group of good looking boys with a fandom of a bunch of crazy teenage girlsâ and for you to call them overhyped.
when reality is that they are one of the few artists who actually write about things people wouldnât talk about but should talk about, produce and write their own music, help millions with their own lives and issues, spread so much love and encourage so much positivity that is needed in todayâs world, teach life lessons no educational institution ever could, lessons that are engrained into our brain and soul, ones weâll never forget, and have a fandom â a family, full of people of all ages and races and cultures and everyone leading a different life with a different story, that love and support these seven boys despite all odds and continue to spread the love furthermore.
When my mother had me, she dreamed about golden rain. Whenever the rain goes, things turn into gold. I could not do anything. I met you (bts) in the golden time. I find myself starting to shine. At first, I was gold. I looked around after a while. Everything around me turned to gold. I donât want to lose this priceless light.
Taehyung Title: Itâs no big deal
Seokjin. Donât be sad when you make a mistake while dancing. Itâs no big deal. You just donât have to make the same mistake. Cheer up. Cheer up. Namjoon. Donât panic after blowing a kiss. Itâs no big deal Your blowing kiss makes a lot of ARMYâs hearts flutter Pound Pound Yoongi. You want to be a stone in your next life. Donât worry Itâs no big deal. I will bring you to a lot of beautiful places. Stone stone. Hosoek. You give us a scary look when we make a mistake on stage. Donât do that. Itâs no big deal. A slip of a wise man. Everybody makes mistakes. Understand it with a warm smile. Bbooing bbooing Jimin. Bceause of a diet and singing out of tune, or making a mistake on stage. Donât be stressed out. Itâs no big deal. No matter what you do on stage it wonât change the fact that youâre the coolest performer Iâve ever seen. Gasp gasp. Jungkook. Stop exercising to tease us more. Itâs no big deal. The more you act cute, the cuter you look. You are not cute anymore. Coochie choochie coo. Itâs no big dealÂ
JIMIN Title: To be together
To be together is very hard. To meet a stranger, To meet different people, I come to think if I make a mistake or what is wrong with that person. To be together is so hard. But without them (bts), I feel empty. When Iâm happy, sad or want to be comforted, They came to my mind to my surprise. Those who were with me Are with me now as âusâ which I feel so grateful for. We became to share small things. I hope they stay healthy. Again today, we are together as night sets in. I think that is what being together is like.Â
RM Title: I (Giyeok)
I remember. Taehyungâs half buzz cut. Jungkookâs bambi eyes and stone wash skinny jeans. Hoseokâs gray padded jacket. Yoongiâs blue sweatpants. When Seokjin wasnât into dad jokes. Jiminâs chubby body. I remember. Our Han River. Our bikes. Our Gxxx V necks. Our Gxxx chino shorts. Our showcase. Our bulgogi.Our chairs in the waiting room. And our blood, sweat, and tears. All those memories are in the corner of the drawer in my head. All those memories are like âGiyeokâ, the 1st Korean alphabet consonant. My precious first. So again today I âgiyeokâ memories.Â
JHOPE Title: Seed (Mr)
Mr. Namjoon Mr. Seokjin Mr. Yoongi Mr. Jimin Mr. Taehyung Mr. Jungkook and Mr. Hosoek These seeds became beautiful flowers. They bring beauty to someone. They bring joy to someone. They bring the scent of memories to someone Mr. Namjoon Mr. Seokjin Mr. Yoongi Mr. Jimin Mr. Taehyung Mr. Jungkook and Mr. Hosoek Bloom like a rose Flutter like a cherry blossom~ Fall like a morning glory~ Like a morning glory~ Just like that beautiful moment~ Letâs stick together I love you
SUGA Title: What a relief
Itâs already been 5 years since we debuted. Just the boys with many dreams. We had nothing but we have many things now. We were only dreaming, but we became a dream of someone. Life is full of choices and regrets. Iâm scared and so are we. We dreamed about flying high up in the sky. But itâs too high and cold. Itâs hard to catch our breath. The brighter the light on us, The darker the shadow. What a relief that we have 7 members. What a relief that we have each other.Â
SEOKJIN Title: Run BTS
We worked around the clock. Run BTS! and BTS alike. Everything in the world gets tired. I want to hope that this is not the moment. I wanted to go with the flow. But I realize Iâm a man who lives fiercely. We have become a family We were always happy and achieved anything we want together. But we canât go against nature. Looking at myself growing older, I look back on our dance. Iâm so tired. Mr, Seongdeuk. So many dance moves are too difficult. I trust you. Namjoon, letâs go for it.Â
To me this song is about how it feels to have anxiety and self doubts, which I relate to quite a bit đ it’s short but it’s still one of my favorite songs from Steven Universe đ
