Sool J, Paul Kim, ULTIMA - Thinking of you
Album Introduction #
“Thinking of you,” a collaboration single by Sool J, Paul Kim, and ULTIMA, is an emotional hip-hop ballad that delicately portrays the pain and longing after a breakup.
Based on the rap/hip-hop genre while exquisitely harmonizing ballad elements, this song brings deep emotion through the different musical colors of the three artists coming together as one. The lyrics that honestly and sincerely express the complex emotions of still missing someone even in the pain of separation are particularly impressive.

Lyrics #
Thrilling love eventually remains as wounds
Thinking of you hurts
Trying to erase you hurts
Tell me what to do
It’s hard to clean up the things we used together
There was no distinction between mine and yours
The t-shirt you wore, your toothbrush still here
Your breath fogging up the living room mirror every day was our routine
Comforting my tired days
Melting my body deeply held in your arms
Clearly I was yours
Your cheeks turned red, I guess you were always excited
Push the worries away
When asked what I live for
I could immediately answer “For you” with a yes
Those nights I was that happy
I carved your image in every corner as many times
How can our answer be separation
What kind of love is this? uh
I don’t know what love really is, that’s the contradiction
I laugh emptily, suffering like a fish without water
Pathetically I still miss you
You know love was always hard
I cried so much, I hate you so much
I guess love died on me
Thinking of you hurts
Trying to erase you hurts
Should I swallow sleeping pills to barely fall asleep
Should I clean up the bed where your traces remain first
Like a refrigerator, I gave you everything I had
But you closed your heart, so I’m coldly filled only with darkness
The empty hanger looks like a question mark
Are you happy? I get flustered by my own empty question
My eyes reflected in the mirror are like a torn umbrella
Even when I close or open it, it keeps leaking, I keep wiping
A relationship thinner and shorter than a hair tie
Can’t tie or hold it, cut short like your bob hair
Now I can’t connect, the things left after you’re gone approach with sad meaning
Everything seems to blame me, their gaze stings
Pathetically I still miss you
You know love is always hard
I cried so much, I hate you so much
I guess love died on me
Cursing and fighting, getting tired and sick of it
Even though we said superficial words, those times were better than now
Was it a lie? Would I lose you? Even though I was afraid, those times were better
Those times were much better than now without you
I still remember you
I should let you go by now
I cried so much, I love you so much
But now I’ll erase you, though I don’t know how
Pathetically I still think of that day
There’s no love for me without you
Thinking of you hurts
Trying to erase you hurts
Tell me what to do
