Concept
Subverting the innocent, refreshing imagery of a sea breeze, OCEAN BREEZE represents the icy, suffocating depths of an endless nocturnal ocean. The group channels dark atmospheric hip-hop and raw emo-rap to express the silent desperation, unhealed trauma, and emotional drowning faced by modern youth. Under the surface, beauty and tragedy collide in freezing waters.
Lyrics — "Undertow (Sum-eul Chamgo)"
[Verse 1: Rion, Taevin]
Chagaun gong-gi, broken ceiling in my room
Sumi mak-hyeowa, I'm sinking to the tomb
Heunjeokdo eopshi beoryeojin gieokdeul
Caught in the crossfire of cold bitter tears
Neon geunyang baramboda chagaweotji
I tried to breathe, but you pulled me beneath
Balbeodung chyeobwado deeper I go
Geomeun badatsoge nan hollo namgyeojyeo
[Pre-Chorus: Kael, Jinwoo]
Geoul sogui nae moseubeun eodumil ppun
Can anybody hear my fading sound?
Son naemireodo apeun chueongman
It pulls me down, it pulls me down
[Chorus: Haneul, Kael]
I'm caught in the undertow, geoteuron useodo
I'm falling, falling, falling, sumeul chamgo
Nunmuri heureuneun bameun kkeuchi eopseo
Fade into the blue, no way to break through
Nal guwonhae jwo, or let me drown slow
Caught in the undertow...
[Verse 2: Taevin, Rion]
Tik-tak jinaganeun sigan, heart flatlining
Geojinmal gatatdeon haengbok, no silver lining
Gaseume baekin your thorns, rip it out
Bimyeongdo mot jireugo swallow the doubt
Screaming underwater, bubbles turn to ice
Paid every toll, sacrificed the price
Neon tteonagago padoman chineunde
Why am I the only one left in the wreckage?
[Chorus: Haneul, Jinwoo]
I'm caught in the undertow, geoteuron useodo
I'm falling, falling, falling, sumeul chamgo
Nunmuri heureuneun bameun kkeuchi eopseo
Fade into the blue, no way to break through
Nal guwonhae jwo, or let me drown slow
Caught in the undertow...
[Bridge: Kael, Haneul, Rion]
Bicheul ireobeorin simhaeui kkeute (in the abyss)
Naui majimak sumgyeolmajeo gajyeoga (take it all)
Just washed away... like shattered glass
Can we rewind the past?
Dorikil su eopseo, it's over now.
[Final Chorus: All, Haneul, Rion]
I'm lost in the undertow, jebal nal nohajwo
I'm falling, falling, falling, sumi meojeo
Nunmuri mandeun bada han-gaunde
Fade into the dark, tore us apart
Kkeutnaee daheun gip-eun chim-muk sok
Goodbye, from the undertow.
