NCT 127 - Fact Check (skip to 45 secs)

Golden chains swing on the platform of gain
We board the gravy train while the others remain
Smiles too bright, suits pressed fine
But the tracks underneath echo a working-line

I step in velvet shoes on a carpet of coins
Money dripping from ceilings while the labour groans
We toast to the blessing, we call it the climb
Raise our glasses high but we ignore the grind
They built the rails with sweat on their backs unseen
While we sip champagne in the limousine scene
Gravy train moving fast, destination unknown
Luxury reflected in the windows of chrome
But the yard yards away where the engines roar weak
The workers clock out, the profits peak
We count the zeros like prayers in the night
But every market crash hides a human plight
Money’s the blessing they sold as the holy gift
Turns out the chains are heavy, the weights lift

Ride the gravy train, glinting gold in the rain
Smile for the lens while the others feel the pain
Money like blessing, reversed in the frame
Golden train rails built on someone else’s shame

Corporate towers glisten like altars of god
We bow to the ledger, applaud what they prod
We’re kings of the slide-board, masters of flex
But the cost of the ticket’s hidden in specs
We wear the brand-logo like scripture of worth
But the souls that supplied it still walk the Earth
We draft the contracts, they dig the mines
We drink from the goblet while they thirst for the lines
The train’s whistle echoes in the valley of noise
Where the workers huddle, the exploited boys
We ride past stations labelled “sacrifice”, “margins low”
We wave from the windows while the engines go slow
Fake luxury dripping from our wrists and our necks
While the supply chain strains under the lack of respect

Ride the gravy train, glinting gold in the rain
Smile for the lens while the others feel the pain
Money like blessing, reversed in the frame
Golden train rails built on someone else’s shame

Final whistle blow, the train stops at the gate
We step off in tuxedos but we carry the weight
Of hollow applause, empty deals sealed
Of human cost hidden behind the wheels
We pass the velvet rope, cameras flash our names
While factories idle in the shadows of fame
They made the tracks, we bought the ride
Now we market the dream and the others died
The buttery text on the brochure says “success”
But the bill-folded pages hide the process
Golden train runs on rails of misère
We build our crowns but the cost’s unfair
We laugh in the yacht while the landscape bleeds
We feast at the feast while someone else feeds

Ride the gravy train, glinting gold in the rain
Smile for the lens while the others feel the pain
Money like blessing, reversed in the frame
Golden train rails built on someone else’s shame

Velvet steps echo in the hall of gain
We board again, forget the train’s pain
Gravy flowing fast, but the source remains
Golden train moving while the others strain

✧ ryujin (itzy) - run away (sped up)
