The vocalists carry this across as a sweet, confession song ( “I like you so I’m singing for you”), while the rappers amp up their alpha male approach ( “If you’re gonna reject me, no thanks”). 2.5: The Final Chapter’ is at odds with itself. While this song showcases the rap line in good shape – I.M’s desperate delivery of the final line “Is this possibly only difficult for me?” being a highlight – the vocalists’ distribution is quite disparate, with Hyungwon only singing two lines in the entire track. This Wonho-penned track on ‘Take.2 We Are Here’ has some beautiful lyrical imagery ( “Your emotions surge like the waves / Your words blow in like a storm”), but it’s sadly overshadowed by the members’ unusually-high pitched vocals.

Though if there was at least one salvageable part of this track, it would be Hyungwon’s valiant rap attempt. “Let’s stop, calm down”, Joohoney instructs on the song, and the producers could have taken his advice here the frenzied beats and melody is a bit over the top at times, which could potentially be (if not already) headache inducing.
