Meaning

Examples
A startup needs to launch a revolutionary idea in a highly competitive market.
Run! Faster than the fire,
달려! 불꽃보다 빠르게,
Flash! Brighter, higher!
섬광! 더 밝게, 더 높게!
Can you hear the thunder’s drum?
천둥의 북소리가 들리니?
We’re the storm that’s yet to come!
우리는 다가올 폭풍 그 자체야!
Pulse in my veins, no time to slow,
혈관 속의 맥박, 늦출 시간은 없어,
breaking the limits, I overflow.
한계를 부수며 넘쳐흐르지.
Neon in motion, stars collide,
움직이는 네온, 별들이 충돌하고,
this is the place where speed won’t hide.
속도가 숨지 못하는 바로 이곳.
Every breath’s a shot of flame,
숨결마다 불꽃이 쏘아 올려지고,
every beat’s a deadly game.
비트마다 치명적인 게임이 펼쳐져.
Shadows chase but fade behind,
그림자가 뒤쫓지만 멀어져 가네,
I’m the flash they’ll never find!
난 그들이 절대 찾지 못할 섬광이니까!
Higher, louder, feel it rise,
더 높게, 더 크게, 고조되는 전율을 느껴,
heartbeat syncs with lightning skies.
심장 박동은 번개 치는 하늘과 맞물려.
No rewind, no delay—
되감기도, 지체도 없어—
burn the night, fade away!
밤을 불사르고 흔적 없이 사라져!
Lightning run!
번개처럼 달려!
Faster, stronger, never done!
더 빠르게, 더 강하게, 끝이란 없어!
Lightning run!
번개처럼 달려!
We are fire on the sun!
우리는 태양 위의 불꽃이야!
Flash! Dash! Burn the sky!
번쩍! 돌진! 하늘을 불태워!
Chase the light, we never die!
빛을 쫓아, 우린 절대 죽지 않아!
Woo-oh, woo-oh—
우오-오, 우오-오—
we are thunder amplified!
우리는 증폭된 천둥소리야!
Eyes like sparks, I blur the scene,
불꽃 같은 눈동자, 풍경은 흐릿해지고,
living inside a laser dream.
레이저 꿈속에서 살아가.
Every note’s a neon blade,
음표 하나하나가 네온 칼날이 되어,
cutting time, I’m unafraid.
시간을 베어 넘겨, 난 두렵지 않아.
Run with me through zero-G,
무중력 속을 나와 함께 달려,
sound and speed collide in me.
소리와 속도가 내 안에서 충돌해.
Gravity can’t hold this flight—
중력도 이 비행을 막을 순 없어—
we’re the storm, we own the night!
우리는 폭풍, 이 밤의 주인이야!
No control, no return,
통제도, 후퇴도 없어,
every note is how I burn!
모든 음표는 내가 타오르는 방식!
Breathing’s gone, but I’m alive—
숨은 가쁘지만 난 살아있어—
this is where I come to thrive!
여기가 바로 내가 번성할 곳이야!
