The lyrics focus on the journey of overcoming despair and the profound awakening that occurs when someone reaches out to help during a time of deep exhaustion. The recurring motif of a “calling,” usually linked to a simple vocal shout or external communication, is here reinterpreted as a symbol of salvation and a powerful internal drive reignited by a supportive presence. The narrator’s past experiences are described as stifled, dusty, and voiceless, but being pulled up by a trusted hand transforms that extinguished heart into a burning, unstoppable force. The repeated chorus highlights the intense, visceral realization of this rebirth, transforming the act of being saved into an energetic celebration of being “alive again.” Instead of viewing a period of burnout as the absolute end, the song portrays it as a temporary pause before a blazing resurrection, underscoring the triumph of finding one’s lost voice and realizing that “it’s not finished yet.”

English Version
Broken down and tired
I lost my light lost my song
In my darkest hour
I hear your voice, leading me on
RISE UP
Rise up like the morning
Forget every lie I’m told
I will lift my eyes, remember I am yours
CALLING
Beauty from the dust
Back into your love
I’m alive again
CALLING
Light out of the dark
Life into my heart
It’s not finished yet
I hear you I hear you calling
Standing on these ashes
I know your hand
pulled me up
RISE UP
Rise up like the morning
Forget every lie I’m told
I will lift my eyes, remember I am yours
I hear you CALLING
Beauty from the dust
Back into your love
I’m alive again

Hangul
쳐다보지 말아 난 지쳤어
I lost my song
먼지 속에 쌓인
날 일으켜 세운 네 손
Rise up
고갤 든 태양처럼
전보다 더 뜨겁게
막을 수 없게 끝없이 타올라
CALLING
보여 저 길 위로 네 곁에 선 내가
I’m alive again
CALLING
숨죽인 삶 뒤에
살아 있는 내가
It’s not finished yet
I hear you I hear you calling
꺼졌던 내 마음이 살아나 터져 나와
Rise up
고갤 든 태양처럼
전보다 더 뜨겁게
막을 수 없게 끝없이 타올라
I hear you CALLING
보여 저 길 위로
네 곁에 선 내가
I’m alive again
CALLING
숨죽인 삶 뒤에
살아있는 내가
It’s not finished yet
I hear you I hear you calling
