[어거스트디 "Interlude: Set me free" 가사]

[Chorus]
Set me free, yeah, 내 마음대로 안될 걸 다 알면서, 음
Set me free, yeah, 그게 내 맘이 아니란 걸 알면서, oh, no, no, no

[Verse]
Set me free 난 자유롭게 허공에 떠있네
Set me free 요즘 기분이 왜인지 꿀꿀해
내 하루는 바닥에서 기고
또 하루는 창공에서 나네
왜 왜

[Chorus]
Set me free, yeah, 내 마음대로 안될 걸 다 알면서, 음
Set me free, yeah, 그게 내 맘이 아니란 걸 알면서, oh, no, no, no

[Outro]
Set me free, yeah
Set me free, yeah
Set me free, yeah
Set me free, yeah
Set me free

About

Song Bio

This track, which Yoongi supplies with his rare vocals, covers the urge to escape the monotony of some days. Given the context of a pandemic-induced self-quarantine, it’s not a stretch to imagine “set me free” is both a figurative and literal cry.

This follows a theme of feeling ensnared that is explored through some of the mixtape, including (not particularly subtly) in some of the promotional material:

This track also mimics the structure of the interlude from his previous mixtape, “Interlude ; Dream, Reality”, with a repeating line and dreamy, spaced-out instrumentals.

What did Agust D say about "Interlude: Set me free"?
Genius Answer

In the Mixtape Interview,when he was asked ‘did you try a new genre [on the mixtape]?’ he replied:

It is the “Interlude.” I sing throughout the entire track, but it’s different from the vocal styles I’ve tried. It’s completely a new style that I’ve never tried. The recording was fun. I did all the recording myself this time and I could try new things so it was fun.

During the VLive about D-2, Yoongi shared:

At first I was thinking to put it as a instrumental. I was waiting for the confirmation for “어땠을까 (Dear my friend)” and I just came up with this. There’s a moment when you get a great sound at one shot.

He also said that the song was finished in May 2020, as he always mark the dates.
