Entrance
Where am I?
What is this big door that I've just entered?
Ge-get it!
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Stray Kids, ah!
Watch out, watch out (ay, ay, ay)
Watch out, watch out (da, da, da)
There's no turning back
MIROH
Across the mountain across the mountain
Across the river across the river
Across the mountain range across the river and the ocean
Across all of it and the next
It's not hard, in this rough jungle
It was me who ran into it, I'm okay
We goin' higher in the next city
Looking down the buildings, Fly all day
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher Higher I'm going up over there
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going to fly higher
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going up over there
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going to fly higher
Yo There's no way because it's my first time
Yo I was daring because it's my first time
Yo That it was my first time became a weapon
It's my first time, my first time, all of them
Poison, trap, toadstool you can set them up
I'll survive in the end, whatever it takes
I know your traps, you set them up and I stomp on them tougher
There's only one answer, you just have to open it
(Stray Kids, woo)
It's not hard, in this rough jungle
It was me who ran into it, I'm okay
We goin' higher in the next city
Looking down the buildings, Fly all day
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher Higher I'm going up over there
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going to fly higher
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going up over there
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going to fly higher
It's not hard, in this rough jungle
It was me who ran into it, I'm okay
We goin' higher in the next city
Looking down the buildings, Fly all day
Lots of thorny vines, need to push down my cuts
But there's no time to rest
I'm alright, I'm holding on and I keep on going
I just need to look ahead and run
Run through the maze like a beast
I'm avoiding all the familiar paths
Though inexperienced, it's a new challenge
Imma Bear Grylls anything that blocks my dream I'm going to eat it up
I run, it's the adventure for my dream
(Stray Kids, woo)
It's not hard, in this rough jungle
It was me who ran into it, I'm okay
We goin' higher in the next city
Looking down the buildings, Fly all day
It's not hard, in this rough jungle
It was me who ran into it, I'm okay
We goin' higher in the next city
Looking down the buildings, Fly all day
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher Higher I'm going up over there
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going to fly higher
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going up over there
Woah-oh-oh woah-oh-oh woah-oh Higher I'm going to fly higher

Roll the dice hunnid times

Roll the dice I roll them all
Victory Song All the time
I know even with my ears closed
I can hear the Victory Song, winner's ease, smile on the face
Who's like me No one is
Get the (oops) out of here
So fragrant flower path
Intoxicated by the fragrance of the flowers
Fly to somewhere higher
My existence itself is a foul
I will never stop
Roll them all I'll go all out

Roll them all

Rush high up Fly high
Who would dare to stop me
Anaconda eating the king of the jungle Tiger
Run fast to the goal I fly higher
What do you mean you don't know what to do amateur
What do you mean you don't know what to do
Everything is ridiculous
Even if it's not, it's all or nothing
Even if compass points to something
Quickly I got it I can reach anywhere
That's how I can be satisfied
I will never stop
Roll them all I'll go all out
I jump in a fight I can win anyway
Roll them all
I never draw back
I'm full of confidence with my spirit and bravado Roll them all
Winner's shout Oh

You can just trust me and go, go higher one by one
Winner's shout Oh
Listen to this Victory Song
Undefeated
Listen to this Victory Song
Undefeated
Listen to this Victory Song
잠깐의 고요 Maze of Memories
Time rushes forward
Like it's my dream
Day and night
For a moment, I ride my thirst
And throw my memories out
This is like a drama without a script
An ending I couldn't have imagined
The dust that used to cover my heart
Now presses down on my dreams
Throwback
Swallowing up the black nights
Now I take it
The red light of the sun
Then, in the cold dawn
I look at the lonely moon
Covering my face in deep thought
Like painting with black
It burns in my mind, filling it up
Questions keep blaming me
Running for answers
That I can no longer see
Running on my mind
But inside, I feel more frustrated
This is a struggle for my tomorrow
Right now, it feels like I'm looking at
The future of yesterday Yeah
Borrowing smiles from others
And letting out a sigh
Right now, it's like today's me is watching me
A brief silence sweeps by
As my steps slow down
The wind pushes me on
Turn up
With this wandering
Give me a moment of sleeping time
In my life, adding wrong answers like they're right
Show me the right answer
Everything I see right now
It's all lies
Even if I turn back, I'm stuck in the same time
Under the blue sky
Our song burns red
Our song burns red
The rough sandstorm blocking the way
A whale hunting for prey flies in
But I can't feed it
That's just how I am
If rocks are thrown at me from everywhere
I cut them all with a knife
Make them into dust
And then create a mountain
From the dust
I give it all back
The rage boiling up inside a kettle
I raise it up, trapped in that rage
I wish that rage was a flower
Instead of a sea of fire, I want a flower field
On the road, devils are making noise
My mind wanders in the air filled with complexity
A bird flying high snatches my mind
I ride on the bird's back and take flight
Imma look back
Imma look back to the future in fact
Let me examine the progress
The demons that tried
to suffocate the road to success
Imma look forward into the sea
Oblivious sea I call history
Thunderous waves that rage
Destroying the maze of memories
I wanna see
And so should I give up
But really can I give up
We live in a time and space
a world full of blinds
It makes me wanna give up
But then again no I shouldn't give up
I feel it inside don't wanna give up
We live in a time and space
a world full of blinds
Now I've had enough
Calling out for help
on this carousel
Life is like a dare or an open fair
I just wanna tell tell the citadel
Dream
Empire campfire
Unpile old files set fire
Rise higher go wild and chase my
Dream
That's why I
Never give up
Never give up
Listen to me, I'm a bit different
Never give up
Never give up
Never give up
Looking at tomorrow, run a little more
Never give up
Boxer
Ah... Okay
Hi I’m a teenager who can fly anywhere
But that doesn’t mean I’m a juvenile delinquent Everyone Attention
I don’t touch the ones weaker than me
Sort out all the strong ones and beat them all
Change from a gentle lamb to a beast for the goal (meow)
I spit out my passion my 100%
The goal to fill my stomach is on the opposite side of the Earth
Burn my surrender See my bravado everyday
I’m rising up like a spaceship towards the sky
My future is so bright Even the sun shines on my path
Oh I’ll keep fighting
Oh you can’t stop me
One, two, bring it on one by one

Fly high like an eagle and take them all

I can see my victims in my eyes
Fly high like an eagle and take them all

Klaxon Bbarabarabara Bam

Chronosaurus
I’ve run without a break but why
It’s still dark around me why
That time will solve everything
Is just a fear for me
Time can’t solve this
I’ll get caught if I just wait I should do something
I don’t have other solutions
Would time in this place be gold or beast?
Would it be me or my dream that’s caught while playing tag?
Day and night every day I
Am afraid I think I’ll get caught
I just dash out even if I get out of breath I run constantly
Why does time run to me so fast?
I just dash out Even if I fall I keep running
I can just run so time can’t even see me
Woah woah woah yeah yeah
Tick tock tick tock Gettin' closer
Woah woah woah yeah yeah
Tick tock tick tock Run fast
Watch out, watch out I should open my eyes
Countdown, countdown Now what?
I feel like I’m stuck in a sandglass
Watch out, watch out I should open my eyes
Countdown, countdown Now what?
It’s just over if I stop
I just dash out even if I get out of breath I run constantly
Why does time run to me so fast?
I just dash out even if I fall I keep running
I can just run so time can’t even see me
Ooh like a tunnel with no light
Yeah ooh There’s no end I’m scared
Ooh like a tunnel with no light
Yeah ooh There’s no end I’m scared
Day and night every day I
Am afraid I think I’ll get caught
I just dash out even if I get out of breath I run constantly
Why does time run to me so fast?
I just dash out even if I fall I keep running
I can just run so time can’t even see me
Woah woah woah yeah yeah
Tick tock tick tock Gettin' closer
Woah woah woah yeah yeah
Tick tock tick tock Run fast
Woah woah woah yeah yeah
Tick tock tick tock Gettin' closer
Woah woah woah yeah yeah
Tick tock tick tock Run fast
19
It's too fast
I've waited for this moment How about you?
Are you afraid? Or are you excited?
Actually it hurts to let you go
Whenever my days went by slowly, I prayed for going fast
But how I feel now is the opposite
I wish this moment would stop for a while
Time, don't stay here go somewhere else
1, 2, 3 and back to the 13
I became a singer I wanted to be then
It's still unbelievable but I'm happy
My dream had a lot of luck so I'm satisfied
But before I started to dream
I expected this moment
I want to pause
I'm not prepared yet
Over there it's waiting for me
My 20s is waiting for me
Why does it feel
So fast like this? My day
If I just count three now
I wish everything would disappear like a dream
And only I would go back to then
Back, back, back, back, back, back
To further back
To the time when I was whining, whining, whining, whining, whining
Whining every day
For fear of being apart after now
For fear of not being able to see me now again
I just wanna go
Back, back, back, back, back, back
Back to the time
Now I talk like a grown-up
I walked proudly even if I was a little clumsy
Like a middle schooler pretending to be a grown-up
I'm still immature and not used to everything
The familiar No Students After 10 sign
Is nothing to do with me now
Mom and dad still treat me as a child
But strangely I'm still used to this
Pay attention Act your age Why do you keep whining?
I'll take off the teenager name tag soon
I think that's enough It's natural
Don't keep feeling uncomfortable Yes Everyone was the same
I wanted to be 20 every time
I experienced the same process as others
Why am I the only one who's so nervous?
Or did others or mom, dad and brother spend this time with the same feeling?
Why does it feel
So fast like this? My day
If I just count three now
I wish everything would disappear like a dream
And only I would go back to then
Back, back, back, back, back, back
To further back
To the time when I was whining, whining, whining, whining, whining
Whining every day
For fear of being apart after now
For fear of not being able to see me now again
I just wanna go
Back, back, back, back, back, back
Back to the time
Such an awkward place
Became my home
Such a large Seoul
Looks small to me
I took off having a dream then
Now I'm preparing for landing looking out the window
I took off having a dream then
Now I'm preparing for landing looking out the window
Such an awkward Such a large
Such an awkward Such a large
ABOUT THE ALBUM
“This EP has honest songs about navigating life, like electro-hip-hop banger Boxer, the rap/rock hybrid of Maze of Memories and R&B throbber 19, uplifting anthems in the EDM-inspired Victory Song and rousing title track, and some brilliant deeper meanings; Chronosaurus combines Chronos, the Greek god of time, and Kronosaurus, a humongous crocodile-like dinosaur, to represent time as a monster. — J.B. ”

Lyrics: Stray Kids
Music: Bang Chan, KAIROS, samUIL
This is an intense and cryptic song that provokes contemplation. It plunges the listener into a perplexing journey of self-discovery, leaving them questioning their current state and contemplating the significance of embarking on a new phase of life.
The song begins with the line “Où suis-je?” that translates to “Where am I?“. This question hints at a sense of disorientation and confusion. The uncertainty of the protagonist’s location symbolizes a loss of direction or purpose. It serves as the first step towards embarking on a transformative journey.
