Embracing Growth and Healing with BTS's 'Inner Child'

BTS's 'Inner Child' is a poignant track that delves into themes of growth, healing, and self-compassion. The song appears to be a conversation between the singer's past and present selves, acknowledging the hardships faced in the past and offering comfort and hope for the future. The lyrics reflect on the struggles of the younger self, who didn't believe in the 'silver galaxy' or the possibility of a brighter future, but the present self has chased the endless light and now sees things differently.

The repeated phrase 'We gon' change' serves as a powerful mantra, suggesting that change is not only possible but inevitable. It's a promise of transformation and a better tomorrow. The song's narrative encourages embracing the past, with its thorns and hardships, and moving forward with a smile, much like a child who remains joyful despite challenges. The imagery of the 'silver galaxy' and stars symbolizes hope and dreams, indicating that the present self is now in a position to offer guidance and support to the younger self.

The closing verses of the song are particularly touching, as the singer offers his hand to his younger self, promising to be there and to share his world, which is now filled with light. This act of reaching out symbolizes self-acceptance and the willingness to nurture one's inner child. The song ultimately conveys a message of healing, suggesting that by acknowledging and comforting our past selves, we can change and grow into a brighter future.
