Hangul
Hey (heh)
All right
You’re ready
Eh
I look and scroll to the bottom
They need some dopamine (I’m out)
Gossip turned inside out
With everyone’s fingertips, pour the tea (I’m out)
Lose your balance
The path is becoming confusing
The whispers spin like a carousel
But I don’t dance, I cast that spell (I’m live)
I don’t blink, there’s no doubt about it
More and more wild
Do you hear that buzz? I’m live
This is your zap
We’re coming
Zap, zap, zap, zap
Take away yesterday and go back to today
I’m on that zap, zap
ZZZ-Zap
Zap, zap, zap, zap
I push it, I do it, I let it go
I’m on that zap
Memory that I wanted to forget
Floating
Shadow falls on my head
I’m not afraid
I bounce them like a technician, yes, I work at the limit
An imitation that not even Copycat can imitate
Repeating again and again
ZAP, I’m the damn gimmick
Kick him back to back
That nag hovering around me
You can mute everything
Oh, I came here to kill
We’re coming
Zap, zap, zap, zap
Take away yesterday and go back to today
I’m on that zap, zp
ZZZ-Zap
Zap, zap, zap, zap
I push it, I do it, I let it go
I’m on that zap
Ayy, here we come, zapping
I always knew the answer was me
Ayy, here we come, zapping
They told a lie, Billlie wasn’t there
The world is stunned, little by little it becomes silent
Show you the real me, I feel good
This is not a limit, no matter what they say
I’m in control, you just echo
(We’re coming zap) Take away yesterday and come back to today
(Zap) I’m on that zap
We’re coming, zap (Oh)
Zap, zap, zap, zap
Take away yesterday and come back to today (Back to today)
I’m on that zap, zap (Oh, woah, oh, yeah)
ZZZ-Zap
Zap, zap, zap, zap (Ooh)
I push it, do it, let it go (Oh, woah)
I’m on that zap

Everybody pours tea with their fingertips (I’m out)
Lose your balance
The path (chimney) is becoming blurry
The whispers spin like a carousel
But I don’t dance, I cast that spell (I’m live)
I don’t blink, there’s no doubt about it

I’m on that zap
The memories (memory) that I wanted to forget
Come float
The shadow (sombra) falling on my head
I’m not afraid
I bounce them like a technician, yes, I work at the limit
An imitation that not even an imitator can follow
Repeating it again, no matter how many times
ZAP, I’m the damn gimmick
Kick him back to back
That annoyance that revolves around me
You can turn off the sound
Oh, I came here to kill
We’re coming
Zap, zap, zap, zap
Exclude yesterday, return to today
I’m on that zap, zap
ZZZ-Zap
Zap, zap, zap, zap
I push it, I do it, I let it go
I’m on that zap
Ayy, here we come, zapping
I knew all along, that the answer was “me”
Ayy, here we come, zapping
They told a lie, Billlie wasn’t there
This dizzying world is getting a little quiet
Show you the real me, a feeling that is like me
This is not a limit (no lie), no matter what others say
I’m in control, you just echo
(We’re coming zap) Exclude yesterday, go back to today
(Zap) I’m on that zap
We’re coming, zap (Oh)
Zap, zap, zap, zap
Exclude yesterday, go back to today (go back to today)
I’m on that zap, zap (Oh, woah, oh, yeah)
ZZZ-Zap
Zap, zap, zap, zap (Ooh)
I push it, do it, let it go (Oh, woah)
I’m on that zap
Do you feel it?
“ZAP” is a striking and impactful title track that captures the moment of a sudden mental and emotional turning point. The word itself, like a flash of lightning or an electric shock, symbolizes a clear and decisive cut through noise, distraction and pressure.
Basically, the song is about blocking out external negativity. Gossip, critical glances and overwhelming expectations are described as chaotic “noise” and the “zap” becomes a powerful action that instantly shuts everything down to protect one’s inner self.
One of the main themes is the return to the “present self”. Rather than being shaped by external voices, the lyrics emphasize grounding yourself in who you truly are. This creates a sense of clarity and control, where the identity is no longer shaken by external influences.
The track also reflects resilience and courageous self-assurance. Through confident rapping and intense, textured beats, Billlie expresses a mentality that refuses to bend. It’s about standing firm, even in chaos, and maintaining a solid, unshakable sense of self.
Visually, the wilderness setting in the music video reinforces this journey. It represents a space free of distractions, where members confront each other and emerge stronger, transforming isolation into self-discovery and empowerment.
Ultimately, “ZAP” is about regaining control, eliminating everything that clouds your identity, and remaining confident in your true self.
