The Urban Labyrinth: RM's 'Hectic' Explored

RM's song 'Hectic,' featuring Colde, delves into the complexities and the often overwhelming nature of urban life. The lyrics paint a picture of a day that is 'hectic' and devoid of romance, suggesting a sense of monotony and disillusionment with the daily grind. The repetition of 'yesterday was a hectic' emphasizes the cyclical nature of this experience, where each day blurs into the next without significant change or emotional fulfillment.

The song also touches on the superficial interactions that characterize city life, as seen in lines like 'Met the people, people, people (Talkin' same shit).' This suggests a yearning for more meaningful connections amidst the 'liquor talks' and the 'endless chasin'.' RM questions the purpose of this relentless pursuit and whether the pain of 'bornin''—a possible play on words for both 'being born' and 'boring'—is worth the game of life. The desire for 'just one another heaven' indicates a longing for escape or a different reality where peace and happiness are attainable.

The latter part of the song introduces a shift in tone, with a more reflective and hopeful outlook. The mention of 'hangover's over' and 'nocturne for the sad night Seoul' suggests a recovery from the intoxication of city life and a recognition of its beauty despite its flaws. The final verses speak to finding peace and creating one's own 'star night,' a metaphor for carving out moments of joy and tranquility within the chaos. RM's lyrics, therefore, oscillate between critique and appreciation, capturing the dual nature of urban existence.
