[Verse 1: Sam Ock]

I admit that I’m a little bit defensive

I admit that I’m a sentimental fool

Many times I know that I could be a blessing

So I’ll keep on fighting every day for truth

A “goodbye” to the bitterness and silly things

To the name-brand products and the golden rings

A “goodbye” to the grudges and the memories

Of things that weigh me down and make me freeze

A “farewell” to the idols and the flashing lights

To the darkness and all that kills my soul’s light

“Goodbye” to anything and everything

This is my life’s anthem so hear it ring! (c’mon)


[Chorus]

Goodbye to everything, yes, everything I knew

Goodbye to anything that keeps me back from You

Goodbye to everything, yes, everything I do

Goodbye to anything that keeps me home from You!


[Verse 2: J. Han]

I’m saying, “sayonara” to the world. Nice knowing you

Sick of all your empty promises and this growing bill

Done trying to please everybody in the cosmos

Chasing after nothing, just ended up in a grotto

All I ever knew: “build a name for yourself

And getting buddy-buddy with security & wealth

Dreams colored red, white, and blue; painted with a yellow hue

Decorated green c.r.e.a.m., scuffed black on the shoes

So its “bye” to the old ways; here’s the homecoming

The symphony is playing! I’mma hit the ground running!

Let the timpanis rumble. Hear the choir humming?

The angels are delighted! Can you feel the heavens buzzing?

[AWWWWEEE] It’s been a long time coming

But we’re finally here, and I’m loving every moment!

So it’s cheers to the good life -- ain’t nothing better

And the song of the redeemed, unashamed, unfettered!


[Chorus]

Goodbye to everything, yes, everything I knew

Goodbye to anything that keeps me back from You

Goodbye to everything, yes, everything I do

Goodbye to anything that keeps me home from You!
