G-Dragon “Untitled, 2014” Lyrics
Hangul
아무런 말 없이
그저 널 바라볼 수만 있다면
그렇게라도 할 수 있다면
너무나도 행복할 텐데
우리 사랑했던 날들
이제는 추억으로
한 편의 아름다운 영화로 남겠죠
언젠가 다시 돌아온다면
그때 날 떠나지만 말아 줘
아무 말도 하지 말고
그냥 날 꼭 안아 줘
시간이 지나도
여전히 널 기다리고 있을게
더 이상 널 원망하지 않아
그냥 내 곁으로 돌아와 줘
지금이라도 널 볼 수 있다면
내 모든 걸 다 잃어도 좋아
나에게 돌아와 줘
언젠가 다시 돌아온다면
그때 날 떠나지만 말아 줘
아무 말도 하지 말고
그냥 날 꼭 안아 줘

Translation
If only I could just
Look at you without saying anything
If only I could do that
I would be so happy
The days we loved each other
Now remain as memories
As a beautiful scene from a movie
If you ever come back someday
Please don’t leave me again
Don’t say anything
Just hold me tight
Even if time passes
I will still be waiting for you
I won’t resent you anymore
Just come back to my side
Even if I could see you now
I wouldn’t mind losing everything
Just come back to me
If you ever come back someday
Please don’t leave me again
Don’t say anything
Just hold me tight
G-Dragon “Untitled, 2014” Meaning
G-Dragon’s song “Untitled, 2014” reflects deep regret and longing for lost love. The lyrics express his sorrow for having hurt the person he loved, and his yearning to see her again, even if it means sacrificing everything. He cannot accept that their love is over and believes that they are meant to be together, convinced that no love will ever compare to what they shared. Despite his longing for reconciliation, he recognizes the slim chance of it happening and wishes for another life where they can meet again and love each other.
The raw emotion G-Dragon conveys in the song is echoed in the music video, which was shot in the shortest time due to his remarkable acting. The lack of special effects or grand settings in the video highlights his facial expressions and the vulnerability he presents, making the viewer feel the sadness, regret, and despair he is experiencing. This marks a departure from his usual style of rapping, as he sings with deep emotion, showcasing a more authentic and heartfelt side of himself.
