The easy, fast path is a fragrant flower made by the devil
hadeon daero haji, minneun geudaero jikjin
Keep doing what I've been doing, straight ahead with faith
We just choego songnyeok speed up
We just hit top speed, speed up
geojisi deureona modeun cheok
Lies unfold, every act exposed
itneun geudaero boyeojineun keot
A shot that shows things just as they are
seuseuro pabeoril mudeomgwa deot
You dig your own grave and set your own trap
ppeonhan jaemiwa jageukbodan jinjeongseong
Authenticity over cheap thrills
jeogeun daero boyeojuneun geot
Showing exactly what we've written
naebaeteun daero boyeojuneun geot
Showing exactly what we've spit out
heopung tteoldeut heose gadeuk deureun
Packed with bluffing swagger
hojumeonineun jjitgin ji oraejeon
Their pockets have been ripped for ages
meotjin nomi doegi wihae michin deusi gariji anko ttwieodeureosseo
To become someone cool, I dove in like crazy with no hesitation
hyeonsirui byeogi nopda handeul, nae pobuneun mureup hanbeon an kkulheosseo
Even if the wall of reality's high, my ambition never kneeled once
sueopsi sseo naeryeogal eopjeokdeure ingkeu memareul il eopneun penchok
A pen tip that never dries, it's been writing accomplishments without end
jogeupal piryo eopneun my pace oneuldo nareul deo jaechok
No need to rush, my pace, yet today I urge myself more

SONG MEANING
CREED by Stray Kids is a high-octane self-anthem that shouts, “We build our own legend!” From the very first skrt, the members breathe life into their words, boasting that they climb from the dirt to dizzying heights entirely on their own timing. They refuse to waste even a single second, treating every moment as precious as diamonds. The song’s pulse mirrors their hustle: raw, fearless, and packed with bite, proving they back up every bark with real action.
At its core, the track is about loyalty to a personal code—or creed. Stray Kids reject easy shortcuts, calling them “fragrant flowers made by the devil,” and instead carve out their own road, parkour-style, over any obstacle. Authenticity beats flashy façades; the group would rather show unfiltered effort than empty swagger. Their creed keeps them breathing, keeps their pens flowing with future achievements, and fuels their maximum speed toward greatness. Listeners are invited to do the same: trust your voice, stick to your principles, and race ahead on the path you create.
