At the table is only our family (B-Free: Hi-Lite)
When I eat, my whole family eats too
By any means, me and my team
We gon’ get it, get it
B-Free)
Wit my team, wit my team, wit my team
Wit my team, yeah
Wit my team, wit my team, wit my team
Wit my team, yeah, yeah, yeah (G2: Hi-Lite)
Verse 1: B-Free)
At the table is only our family
Getting cream, riding with my team, The Fast and the Furious
If you’re not part of my team, fuck off, my mood right now
Who the fuck are y’all, who the fuck is you? (Hah?)
We don’t know y’all, we be getting mula
We be getting big like we doing pull ups, line up behind us
You don’t want us to pull up and start a problem
Our family, we’re our own cooks, yeah, like Samsung
Hi-Lite, we’re like a major company
Give it up, all you mutherfuckers better ante up
We eat tasty food, y’all eat shit
Good fellas getting that chedda man, why you haters jealous
Verse 2)
A group with one thing in common
When I’ve eaten my fill then my family has to be full too, logic
When I eat, my family gotta eat too
We’re not blood-related but we’re a family sharing the same livelihood
We’re not blood-related but we bleed for our team
If you mess with my team, I’ll do something you can’t handle
In our squad we trust, victory is ours
God is on our side, we clink glasses and shout “Hallelujah!”
Sorry to y’all but I’m not sorry
If you mention our name, your name will be on our menu
A banquet on the table for life
Welcome to our house, welcome to Hi-Lite, yeah
Hook)
At the table is only our family
We look after all our family members’ meals, uh
When I eat, my whole family eats too
By any means, me and my team we gon’ get it, get it
B-Free)
Wit my team, wit my team, wit my team
Wit my team, yeah, (G2:) we gon’ get it, get it
Wit my team, wit my team, wit my team
Wit my team, yeah, (G2:) we gon’ get it, get it
Verse 3: Okasian)
We don’t share any blood
but we have the same father((This and the following two lines are similar to Okasian’s lyrics in ‘Turtle Ship Remix‘: The rest remains and we have the same father
We stole the loser rappers’ money and divided it all
We shared all of it, we hold a party, you’re uninvited))
All the rest remains
and we shared it amongst us
Fuck the other side
Till the day I die
If you’re fake then just tell me the budget
Fucking beggar, I know what you’re about
Verse 4: Reddy)
Check out who’ll be driving in my Mohenic next year
I told you I’ll let my brothers drive with me
One after the other, I make my wishes come true
On concert-free weekends I go to Haeundae to chill
High like our company, that’s my mood lately
Different mothers but they’re all members of my family
We ignore the retards and keep winning, man
Everyday you deny and hate this situation
With my team, with my team, having fun no matter where
Palo-hyung has found wild ginseng,((“심봤지” (shim bwatji, “I’ve found wild ginseng”) is an exclamation used by ginseng diggers when searching for wild ginseng in the mountains. They used to go around in a group and when someone found wild ginseng, that person would shout “shim bwatji” three times and could then claim their finding. The others had to keep their hands off of it, unless they had previously agreed to share.
Here, this is used as a metaphor to describe the value of Hi-Lite Records which Paloalto is the CEO of.)) I contribute to that belief,((Implying that he is a precious discovery)) yeah
I walked slowly and came until here
I’ll keep heating things up, just like long pants in midsummer
Verse 5: Huckleberry P)
The size of the rice bowl or how to hold the spoon,
that’s all up to the individual. But more important is
that we only put on our table those who we’ve personally caught
That is the difference between us and any Tom, Dick, or Harry
They live in one house and eat together: family
The reason why I sit on my ass here:
I feel pride, [as] one part of these great people
Your guys’ envy and jealousy can’t change my mood
Ah yeah, H.I.L.I.T.E. y’all
You know you can’t fuck with my team((Reference to B-Free’s ‘My Team (Feat. Reddy, Okasian, Huckleberry P, Paloalto, Keith Ape) ))
You will never be able to put your spoon on our table
As someone said, everyone except my family is my enemy, fuck all y’all
Hook)
Verse 6: Paloalto)
My phone is ringing again, it’s Djanga-hyung’s name [on the screen].
This week again, like last week, we go up on stage
I feel sorry for my wife, for leaving her alone with Monk((Their dog who got his name from jazz pianist Thelonious Monk))
The three of us are going to have fun together next week
Fuckers who weren’t interested before keep provoking me
because they don’t have anything else to do
There’s a lot I have to look out for, I love the members of my family
Love is always number one, oh, God
I pray, grateful for all of this
Even though life gets better, I don’t settle for that
Just like in the past five years, I won’t be stoppable from now on either
Love, hate, they coexist at the place we’re going to
Our goal is the whole world, yes I’m an asshole
A guy like me starts a car with an AMG engine
My cousin has gotten more friends thanks to me((Paloalto once uploaded a screenshot of a chat with his cousin to proof to his cousin’s friends that they’re cousins.))
I use my fame to look after my family
Outro: Sway D)
Sukhyun((Song Sukhyun is Sway D’s real name)) is my friend
G2 is my friend too
Hi-Lite, my family
We don’t share any blood but [we live] under one roof, family

Hook x2: Paloalto)
We’re turtle ships, other ships chug along((Turtle ships are faster and more agile than “average” ships as they have sails and oars))
Piles of shit shall just fall on them((Meanwhile, turtle ships are covered on top))
Your pupils dilate, you feel pain
We’re tough cookies, you guys are only average
Verse 1: G2)
We’re turtle ships, other ships chug along
Hold on, we’re in a completely different ozone from you
Hi-Lite, soldiers who can fly in the sky
A fight without any fairness or shit, a meaningless challenge
My ninjas flying over oceans
You bitches fighting for attention
You guys being envious
That is a characteristic which bitches have, it’s plain disgusting
We never ever give anyone 2 fucks
New Seoul, the strongest brothers have all gotten together
First, we destroy all stages of the Republic of Korea
I recommend you obey before becoming our enemy
Be very afraid,
if you spit words without thinking, a war will start
If you’re not our friend, we definitely keep you in check
Come with that bit of beef, I’ll grill it for you on a gridiron
Verse 2: B-Free)
We so fly, so high, there’s not enough oxygen here
Now welcome to Hi-Lite, flight
Business class, the stewardess brings peanuts((Reference to the “nut rage” incident))
Our company’s value rises too, yeah
My enemies purchase oxygen in advance
I buy a car, you go broke((Pun on car (cha) and go broke (kkangtong chada) ))
No matter if under, main, rapper, or idol
The title doesn’t matter, let’s earn money, let’s get paid
The most important thing are your skills
A vision of a dimension different from others’, authenticity
An article about me is published, 1st place on real-time search
However, the picture doesn’t show me but Song Suk-hyun((Sway D’s real name))
Little kids point their fingers at me and insult me
In front of the computer, they act strong
But I’m alright, everything bounces off me
I push it all away, I’m a human turtle ship, ey
Hook x2: Paloalto)
Verse 3: Okasian)
We’re turtle ships, one killer whale at your ship
5 deep underwater, exhale thru the nose
My style, try to bite it,((pun; colloquially, bite means to copy)) I’m potassium cyanide
The moment you bite me,((or: the moment you badmouth me; another pun on bite/chew (ssipda) which can also mean badmouth)) you will face your Lord
Goddamn, goddamn
Your girlfriend says she saw me in her dreams
Half of me is arrogant, the rest modest
The important thing is balance, wirewalker, ey
You’re like anyone else, not a 2nd-generation chaebol but a beggar
The rest remains and we have the same father
We stole the loser rappers’ money and divided it all
We shared all of it, we hold a party, you’re uninvited
Verse 4: Paloalto)
Ha, you judge me as if you know me
and hearing that, others say: right, let him fail
I’m saying I’m neither fake nor real,
I’m just me. If you don’t like it, leave
You guys’ words which aren’t real don’t matter
I have something bigger than that
Every place I go I see love,
people who welcome me have gathered
Honestly, I only have a few real friends
There are intruders around me trying to steal my wallet
I’m really grateful to the people who believe in me,
because the more money I earned, the hungrier I became for love
There are many retards who avoid reality
Snap out of it, damn it, live diligently
Nobody will feed you
I will never open my heart, ha
Hook x2: Paloalto)
Verse 5: Zico)
You guys are only average, we’re not normal
If you can’t do it like in the country of origin, copy me((= If you can’t imitate the original hiphop they make in the US, take me as your model))
What the fuck, you took the wrong route
You’ll regret having entered my area
When the water comes in, I keep rowing,((Possible reference to E SENS’ “Next Level”: I was ready to row, but the water wouldn’t come in))
[like] beer bottles that flounder even in the blue ocean((Probably a reference to the Blue Ocean Strategy))
Even while the foam goes down,((Note that “foam” or “bubbles” is a metaphor for the “short-lived” musicians, unlike the “turtle ship” which stays on top (see following line).))
I’m a turtle ship that easily survives on top of the charts
Okay Dokey, 겁, moneyflow, all from my hands
I’m the producer who turned Song Minho rich thanks to royalties
Creativity is a treasure island, parabolas fall
This is the Maginot Line, for you
Thanks to indiscriminate pointing of fingers
I easily received attention (Oh yeah!)
And thanks to the stones you carelessly threw
I was able to break the prejudices surrounding me and leave them
Now it’s time for the scholars to act
You can’t distinguish imitation from inspiration? Why?
If you have kids, tell them too that they plagiarized your face
Stop seducing [girls] by listening to The Anecdote, man
I pronounce “annual income” as “Power Pole”((Reference to the Power Pole of Goku from Dragonball; in Korean the words sound more similar: yeonbong and yeoeuibong))
because when I just feel like it, I can enlarge it all the way
I got enemies, I got a lotta enemies
To me they’re Bearbricks that I own in different colors
Hook x2: Paloalto)

Verse 1: G2)
If you don’t know, prick your ears and listen
Gather energy, pierce through the blocked road with your sixth sense
Wipe them out, useless bodies, already dead zombies
Bob Marley spiritually revived South Korean hip hop
Surely they ain’t gon’ test me, nah
What feels like hip hop right now is me
The MCs have disappeared and rappers are all entertainer[s]?
These days, Korean hip hop is all KPop?
Fuck that, anyone can see it makes no sense
We continue making refined boombap that’s overflowing with soul
Rap, decapitate, 100 % of the fags that infact can’t rap for crap
I am what hip hop lacks!
It’s all obvious, the trend changes, it’s all handed down, like bars
If you want to talk to me, schedule an appointment, psycho genius
I’m shittin’ on these bitches, piling up shit
I gain 200 kg of weight, I become the Korean Big Pun((Big Punisher, US-American rapper))
Verse 2: Kid Ash)
I open the gate of dimension to bring the third dimension into reality((Gate of Dimension is a KakaoTalk game))
We seduce you guys as if we’ve become devils
The world needs to pay attention to us
With words sharper than knives we pierce everyone’s sixth senses
This era needs evolution, not change
This is the legend of a far future, the beginning of a new era
We’re the ones who’ll accomplish it, sorry but it’s definitely
not you guys, watch us from down there
making new history, I set foot on the first page
and then walk on the the next page
My brain holds an outstanding weapon, so what’s left
is to stab them all to death with swag. With camo bape hoodies
we’re all disguised, then we disappear
The pupil of ma third eye is alive and moving
We look worldwide. You guys probably can’t see,
there’s no point in blind people discussing visions, what’s there to see?
Hook x2: G2 & Kid Ash)
Young mothafucka, my year of birth is only 92
Until I die I’m riding wit the UGP((Unitary Guerilla Platoon, old Counter-Strike team))
Young mothafucka, my year of birth is only 93
Until I die I’m swimmin’ wit the killer killer whales
Verse 3: G2)
I don’t have expensive chains
but I got my cross necklace and Texas piece
Although it’s not where I was born but for me it’s forever home,
my home, still I’m representin’ New Seoul
Kid Ash)
What the fuck is happenin’? Kid Ash is my rap name
Lives without scripts, our lives are fuckin’ ad-lib
I definitely attack, I’m a knucklehead, Pac Div((Reference to Pac Div – Knuckleheadz / Still A Knucklehead (feat. Sir Michael Rocks) ))
If this scene was the sea, we would be captains on a pirate ship
G2)
They’re all acting well-off, irresponsible faggots
Son of a bitch, you’re smartassing every day
Gahdamit, I told you to stop reaching for my food!((metaphorical; stop reaching for my food = stop trying to steal my spotlight/fans/living → see bowl metaphor))
Now you made me angry, I cut your neck
Kid Ash)
I spit into the cut
We goin’ too crazy, go ape shit, chimpanzees
Your teeth are all decayed, rotten teeth, I anesthetize them
I’ll pull them all out, bring my pincers you lil bitch
