Name a more iconic duo. BTS’ SUGA and MAX’s “Blueberry Eyes” lyrics will make you believe in love. MAX, whose full name is Maxwell George Schneider, released the music video for his latest single, “Blueberry Eyes,” on Tuesday, September 15.
The track, which features BTS member SUGA, is a love song dedicated to MAX’s wife, Emily Schneider, who stars in the music video. The music video starts with MAX and Emily in a bathtub filled with blueberries as he proposes to her with a sapphire ring the same color as the fruits he and his wife are laying in. The music video continues with MAX and Emily (dressed in blue, of course) at the altar as they recite vows to each other.
Though MAX’s verses are English, SUGA’s part, which is featured in the the wedding scene, is in Korean. The scene, which also includes Korean subtitles, shows MAX and Emily lipsyncing to SUGA’s part as the rapper’s verses play over the music video. According to an English translation of SUGA’s lyrics by Genius, the BTS member raps about how someone has been a “ray of light” for him. “A ray of light that cut through my shadow / You who overturned my life that had been dark,” Genius’ translation reads.
According to Genius, one of SUGA’s lyrics also shouts out BTS’ fanbase, ARMY, which confirmed that his verse is about how the band’s fans have changed his life for the better. “U AR e MY light, friends who support each other, each other’s anchor,” Genius’ translation reads.
“[SUGA’s] lyrics translated so sweet. I think he’s speaking about ARMYs and how much they mean to him. That’s what really made it special. It really did feel like each other’s vows to the people we love, and I love that that’s what he brought to the story,” MAX told Elite Daily in September 2020.

[Intro]
Hmm
Oh, oh woah-o
Yeah that’s better
Let’s do it
[Verse 1: MAX]
Damn, you look so good
Laying there wearing nothing but my t-shirt
Your body’s a neighborhood
Wanna drive my lips all around it
[Pre-Chorus: MAX]
‘Cause I’m holding my breath
Wondering when you’re gonna wake up in my arms
Head on my chest
My heart’s beating
I can’t wait to
[Chorus: MAX]
Kiss you each morning
With strawberry skies
I get so lost in
Your blueberry eyes
I’m running through my dreams
To see you in the light
‘Cause I get so lost in
Your blueberry eyes
[Verse 2: SUGA]
Ay oh, ay oh
A ray of light that cut through my shadow
You who overturned my life that had been dark (Yeah, yeah)
I, maybe, am nothing
Before meeting you, I was nobody
(Yeah yo!)
Ay, I who used to nobody
Umm, my life was just about rushing to get through the day
Yeah
Our day, Our nights, Our lives
U AR e MY light, friends who support each other, each other’s anchor
[Chorus: MAX]
Kiss you each morning
With strawberry skies (Berry skies)
I get so lost in (Get so lost)
Your blueberry eyes (Berry eyes)
I’m running through my dreams
To see you in the light
‘Cause I get so lost in
Your blueberry eyes
[Bridge: MAX]
(Oooh) Yeah, yeah
Yeah, Yeah
I get so lost in ooh, yeah
[Outro: MAX]
I’ll Kiss you each morning
With strawberry skies
‘Cause I get so lost in
Your blueberry eyes
I’m running through my dreams
To see you in the light
I get so lost in
Your blueberry eyes
