Intro: Reddy & Okasian)
I’m on my way, I’m not in a hurry
I’m on my way, I’m not in a hurry
We’re on our way, we’re not in a hurry
We’re not, not, yeah
I’m on my way, I’m not in a hurry (It’s only a matter of time)
I’m on my way, I’m not in a hurry (It’s only a matter of time)
We’re on our way, we’re not in a hurry (It’s only a matter of time)
We’re not, not, yeah (It’s only a matter of time, time, time, time)
Verse 1: Reddy)
Sun, shine above me, hallelujah
Who would dare to hide behind their hands?
The moment the light comes in, life will probably change
I don’t like the middle, I start from that top
I’m a nuclear weapon waiting to explode. A young kid tells,
“I do the things I like, I fail, I lose too”
I believe in everything I have prayed for
The road we are to take is not on this map
The watch on my wrist has stopped now
My notebook is overflowing with blood stains
Killer whale, we are not in a hurry
We are going slowly, I know my way
Hook: Okasian)
It’s only a matter of time
It’s only a matter of time
It’s only a matter of time
I’ll be fine, we’ll be doin’ alright (right x5)
It’s only a matter of time (right x5)
It’s only a matter of time (right x5)
It’s only a matter of time (right)
I’ll (right) be fine (right), we’ll be doin’ alright
Verse 2: Kid Ash)
There’s no stopping for me. Things like walking slowly
or going up step by step, I don’t know them at all
I do think, I do calculate
This world cannot be calculated with a calculator
You stupid guys are walking up the stairs
step by step, you quit even before you’re half-way up
You’ll be out of breath and tired, step in place or sprain your ankle
At one point you will experience tumbling down anyway
What are you? The setting sun. I’m the rising moon, it’s my turn
An express train arrives right on my time
I get on board of the KTX, you’re still on the stairs
Do you think your two legs and what I’m riding can compete?
Problems, problems, I have a lot of problems. The problem is
I know that it’s just a matter of time until I succeed((Here, ‘matter’ and ‘problem’ are the same word in Korean.))
I’m not impatient, I always wait leisurely
You know it, the result is very obvious anyway
Hook: Okasian)
Verse 3: Okasian)
Every beat I’ve been killin’ (right), every pair I’ve been sneakin’, (right)
everything I’ve been seein’ made me every men I’ll be needin’ (right)
Lookin’ like we chillin’ but we on a million missions
Like timebombs we tickin’ to be blown in front of yo mistress
No matter what the work, [I give] 100%. If it’s a hobby, I keep it at home
Any excuse is bullshit, if I say I do it, forget about consider[ing] it
No matter what road, it cannot just be packaged neatly((Metaphor for “just looking good (a pretty package) is not enough, it actually has to be good.”))
No matter what chance, I make it mine, filling up my name’s empty can
We never lose our way or hold each other off
Until I set up Little Italy in my closet, there’s no finale, bitch
Yeah, I do the same thing again,
no time to chill baby, I’m try’na make a mill
Won’t stop, continously twice as fast
My right hand writes rap everyday and my left competes with it
Cohort, Hi-Lite, my resume
Like Palo-hyung’s lyrics, there’s no idiot among us three((1) Reference to Paloalto’s line “Hi-Lite 우리 팀원 중엔 병신 없지” [Hi-Lite, there’s no idiot among our team members] in Jerry.k’s ‘We All Made Us (Feat. Paloalto, The Quiett, Deepflow & Dok2’
2) Pun, three in Korean means ‘set’ → there’s no dumb [track] on our set(list) ))

Wadi X Heuktan release new album ‘시비 (是非)’ and MV
DS Connexion’s leader Wadi and newcomer Heuktan (translates to ‘Black Coal’) have released a new album today. The album title is daringly ‘시비 (是非)’ [Right or Wrong]. While the South Korean hiphop scene is crowded with artists, Wadi and Heuktan define a question about the scene: ‘시비 (是非)’ — Right or Wrong? With the will to truly build their own foundation, they made this album’s three songs.
Wadi, who has made himself known in the scene in 2005 through DS Connexion, has since then constantly released songs like ‘계란한판’ [One Carton of Eggs], ‘강남스타일’ [Gangnam Style] and more, he calls himself “a rapper sealed in the social system.” Heuktan, who has yet to release a special album or song, is a newcomer who was discovered by Wadi. He has a deep and appealing voice and his rhymes and flow are clearly different from other rappers’.
The first track, which is these two’s first step into the scene, is ‘재활’ [Rehabilitation]. Here, Wadi and Heuktan let out their thoughts as they are, throwing their hats into the ring. With the lyrics, “Since when is DS Connexion Fatdoo‘s team?” Wadi makes his existence known and Heuktan raps “I got this chance, a lot of bullets are prepared so I aim right away, bang,” announcing his entrance into the scene.
The title track ‘시비’ [Right or Wrong] is a jab at Korean rappers who copy foreign hiphop songs exactly the same. The song is made up of dope rap and is scattered with punchlines like “Even when you work hard, it doesn’t show, like a terminal during the holidays” (here, the pun is on “it doesn’t show” which in Korean can also be understood as “there are no tickets,” referring to the overfilled bus and train terminals during the holidays in South Korea). Lines like these with expressions that can rarely be heard nowadays feel refreshing and new. Through the music video, they literally relay the message, “I am provoking you, so run away” (In Korean, to provoke literally means to see if someone’s Right or Wrong). The music video was shot and edited by Brotherhood.
The last track ‘미친놈 둘’ [Two Crazy Guys] also sends a strong message to the scene. While remembering their own pasts, Wadi and Heuktan talk about how crazy this scene’s players are and how abnormal they treat each other. In his lyrics, Wadi mentions a lot of incidents he has went through and the scene’s atmosphere he experienced, while partly using the real names of the people involved, so it is to be expected that this song will have a not-so-small impact.
Wadi said that he had prepared this album like a newcomer preparing a mixtape. He added that he wants many people to listen to the album as if a completely new rap duo has come out.
Tracklist:
01. 재활 (再活) [Rehabilitation].
02. 시비 (是非) [Right or Wrong].
03. 미친놈 둘 [Two Crazy Guys].
04. 재활 (再活) [Rehabilitation] (Inst.)
05. 시비 (是非) [Right or Wrong] (Inst.)
06. 미친놈 둘 [Two Crazy Guys] (Inst.)
