Am I Wrong Lyrics

Am I Wrong

[Keb Mo:]

Am I wrong, fallin' in love with you

Tell me am I wrong

While your other man was out there

Cheatin' and lyin', steppin' all over you

[Rap Monster, J-Hope, Suga:]

The world's goin' crazy

How about you how bout ya

Korea was going through political turmoil at the time with the Choi Soon-Sil Scandal and the presidential impeachment at that time.

You think it is okay

I don't think it's that okay

Have ears but don't listen

Have eyes but don't see

BTS are getting political here. They are discussing the nature of politicians and how they don't listen or see what the people need. Instead, they are make laws for their own selfish needs.

Fish live in all our hearts

Its name is selfish, selfish

We're all dogs, pigs, become dogs because we're angry

Stork VS crow-tit warring errday

In this verse, some listeners interpret that Suga is satirising a South Korean official for his statement in which he referred to people as "dogs" and "pigs". The Education Ministry official also further demanded a caste system. However, Suga's never affirmed this rumour.

Similar to "Silver Spoon" and "Cypher Pt. 4", BTS refers to the Korean proverb "If a crow-tit walks like a stork, it will tear its legs." In the Korean society, the older generation is referred as the stork as they are seen as more experienced whilst the younger generation is stereotyped as the crow-tit because of their stubbornness and lack of experience.

Crazy world yeah

Makes us crazy yeah

That's right we're all crazy

All right now give a shout

MAYDAY MAYDAY

'Mayday' is used as a distress call, this could be a reference to the Sewol Ferry Incident, which killed over 300 people, most being Secondary School children. The government of South Korea was heavily criticised as the emergency response provided was weak.

[V, Jungkook:]

It seems like the entire world has gone crazy

Seems like the end

Oh why Oh why

Oh why Oh why

Oh why why why why

OH MY GOD

[Jungkook, Jimin, Keb Mo:]

Am I Wrong

Did I say something wrong?

Did I lie?

Going crazy (Gone crazy gone crazy)

Crazy (gone crazy gone crazy)

Am I Wrong

Am I Wrong

Where am I going

The world's going crazy

[Rap Monster:]

Are you ready for this

Are you ready for this

Are you ready for this

No, I'm not

[J-Hope, Together:]

That's right kid you gone crazy

The fact that you're not crazy in a crazy world is crazy

The earth and sky and all around (HELL YEAH)

Online offline

This line talks about how attached to the internet society has become. We are aware of things because of the internet. We talk to people through the internet. Many rely on the internet for their jobs, daily life, news, communication and many others.

(HELL YEAH)

[Rap Monster:]

If what you see on the news is nothing to you

If that comment is nothing to you

If that hatred is nothing to you

You're not normal, you're abnormal

[Jin, Jungkook:]

It seems like the entire world has gone crazy

Seems like the end

Oh why Oh why

Oh why Oh why

Oh why why why why

OH MY GOD

[Jungkook, Jimin, Keb Mo, Together:]

Going crazy (gone crazy gone crazy)

Where am I going

The world's going crazy

Though I walk this crazy world's path

I still want to live longer

I want to find it, my faith

[Jungkook, Jimin, Keb Mo:]
