Lyrics

Born Inside the Storm (태풍 속에서 태어난)
Produced by Rynelle Alara Chen
Lyrics, Music & Arrangement by Rynelle Alara Chen

When thunder cracked, I learned to stay,
Beneath the roof where tempers fray.
My sisters hid behind my arm,
The kitchen light, our small alarm.
비가 울리던 그 밤처럼.
[Biga ullideon geu bamcheoreom.]
[Like that night when rain would cry.]
I held their hands and closed our eardrums.

The kettle sang like it knew fear,
I’d pour the milk and draw them near.
Two bowls of warmth, our quiet game,
Pretending not to hear her name.
창문 밖엔 소리쳤던 바람,
[Changmun bakken soricheotdeon baram]
[The wind outside was screaming loud,]
We whispered dreams, we didn't alarm.

Each crack of glass became a sign,
Each bruise a ghost I made divine.
Hold your breath, the storm won’t last.
We’ll make the light outrun the past.
Born....
Born inside the storm, I shine.
Thunder beats this heart of mine.
Every tear becomes my flame,
I rise again and call my name.
태풍 속에서 태어났어.
[Taepung sogeseo taeeonasseo.]
[Born within the raging storm.]
Still I stand, born inside the storm.

A gambler’s dice, a working ghost,
Two shadows fought the ones they’d lost.
I packed the meals, I learned the script,
To clean the tears before they dripped.
그녀의 잠긴 문 앞에서,
[Geunyeoui jamgin mun apeseo,]
[In front of her locked door I’d stand,]
And prayed she’d hold my trembling bones.
The fire grew where silence slept,
My voice a vow I never kept.
별빛이 우리를 감싸줄 때,
[Byeolbichi urireul gamssajul ttae,]
[When starlight wraps its arms around,]
The storm inside makes a sacred home.
Every crack became a chord,
Every scar, a quiet sword.
I built a life from shattered tone,
To learn that storms can be my home.

Born inside the storm, I shine,
Thunder beats this heart of mine.
Every tear became my flame,
Now love itself will say my name.
우린 태풍 속에서 태어났어!
[Urin taepung sogeseo taeeonasseo!]
[We were born inside the storm!]
And now we rise, born inside the storm!

The sky forgives, the thunder sleeps,
But I still hum the song she keeps.
비가 걷히면, 난 웃을게.
[Biga geochimyeon, nan useulge.]
[When the rain clears, I’ll smile again.]
I was born inside the storm.
