ABOUT/MEANING: 'Coma' closes the album in a state of total immersion. It begins hazy - noise, ambition, and outside chaos blurring together - before gradually sharpening into something more focused and deliberate. The "coma" isn't darkness or shutdown; it's the opposite - a deep creative state where everything external falls away and only the music remains. He loses himself in it, only to emerge sharper and more in control than before. For Yeonjun, ending here feels right. The album begins with presence and self-assertion, and closes with him back on stage, fully in his element, completely untouchable.
LYRICS - ENGLISH TRANSLATION (translation credits: @translatingTXT)
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
X's and O's and all them No's
So many posers in this scene
Just ignore them, block it out
That noisy noise, I'm in deep sleep
Why you mad? Man, why you pressed?
My GGUM you chewed up
EXPLANATION/SELF REFERENCE: The word for chew in Korean also means 'to belittle someone/something', or 'to deliberately pick at or publicly criticize someone else's words or actions. So this line also means: "My GGUM [Yeonjun's first solo mixtape] that you were belittling." In Korean, “to chew” (씹다) has a double meaning - it literally means to chew something, but it’s also slang for belittling, bad-mouthing, or harshly criticizing someone. The line is a self-reference to his first solo track, GGUM (꿈), which plays on the Korean word for dream - so Yeonjun is saying “My GGUM (my dream / my solo song) that you chewed up or criticized.” The line acknowledges those who harshly criticized GGUM, with many hoping he'd gone a different route for his first solo track. By bringing it into Coma, Yeonjun reclaims that energy - showing that even when others tried to undermine his dream, he stayed true to himself, fully embracing the message of the album: creating and moving through the world on his own terms.
Spit it out, back in the new game
Before I wake up, I gotta say
Hits like coma
No one can call out
Full of chaos
Even amidst that, I don't stop
Beat, I'm on that
With that tight stuff
Till the coda
EXPLANATION: In music, a coda is the ending section of a piece. Here, Yeonjun uses it metaphorically: he’s saying you’re stuck in his zone until the piece ends - until the very end of time - and that he will keep going uninterrupted. It’s both a warning to others to follow his rhythm authentically and a declaration to himself that he will stay fully in control, no matter what.
This shit like coma
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
(This shit like coma)
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
(This shit like coma)
Weightless, my vocal tone
Up and above that noisy noise
Exhaling in the dark
Follow the light, step up
Knock, wake that sleepy brain up
Followed by a headache
Still I go, no medic
Cut that, I'm on it (Feel that)
Hits like coma
No one can call out
Full of chaos
Even amidst that, I don't stop
Beat, I'm on that
With that tight stuff
Till the coda
This shit like coma, coma, coma, coma...
This shit like coma
Again, on the stage I hop in
Burn that vibe poppin
Again I proved it, who can stop me?
Can you feel it, yeah this shit like coma
Again on the stage
Burn that vibe poppin'
Fed this scene a new topic
Eyes on me, all them
On the stage, I hop in
Burn that vibe poppin'
Fed this scene a new topic
Eyes on me, yeah this shit like coma
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
You're in my zone, come and follow
Pupils wide and floatin'
