Verse 1: Choiza)
Lately, I’m sick and tired of this scene. Why?
Because of the schemes that outshine any politics
Instead of a reward, your hard work is repaid with betrayal
Groundless rumors are an assassin that kills my truths
나 요즘 이 바닥이 신물 나게 지겨워 왜
정치판 뺨치는 권모 술수들 때문에
노력의 대가 대신 돌아 오는 건 배신
헛소문은 내 진실을 죽이는 assassin
Migratory birds come and go anyway
Life’s a lonely one-man-show
Yesterday’s friend [now] intends to backstab me
My trick is to leave on a trip without hesitation
어차피 철새는 come and go
인생은 외로운 one man show
어제의 친구가 노리는 내 뒤통수
미련 없이 떠나는 여행이 나의 꽁수
Gaeko)
I ride the rhythm, I’m totally crazy about music
But I’m tired from the hiphop scene [here] that’s even crazier than me
Assholes who start disputes always play innocent
All that’s left now are conspiracies and hidden truths
나는 리듬 타는 음악에 완전히 미친놈
근데 나보다 더 미친 힙합씬에 지친 몸
논쟁을 일으키는 새끼는 언제나 시침 뚝
지금 남은 건 음모들과 숨겨진 진실뿐
That child-like time, wanna go back to ’99
With just a pen and a notebook my passion went wild
Now all I’m interested in is who sells more
I wanna leave reality and live like crazy, like ’69
철없었던 그 시절 wanna go back to 99
펜과 공책만 있으면 내 열정은 난리나
지금 내 관심은 단지 누가 더 많이 팔리나
현실 떠나 미친 듯 살고 싶어 like 69

Now, let’s leave these politics
Dong-gi dong-gi dong-dok koong
Now, let’s leave on a trip
덩기 덩기 덩덕 쿵
자 이제 정치판을 떠나자
덩기 덩기 덩덕 쿵
자 이제 여행을 떠나자
Dong-gi dong-gi dong-dok koong
Let’s leave, leaving our worries at home
Dong-gi dong-gi dong-dok koong
Let’s fly away on those clouds far away
덩기 덩기 덩덕 쿵
근심은 집에 두고 떠나자
덩기 덩기 덩덕 쿵
저 멀리 구름 타고 날아가자

Fly high yo! Up in the sky yo!
We cross oceans to meet our friends
Fly high yo! Up in the sky yo!
I’ll retire from the hiphop politics now
Fly high yo! Up in the sky yo!
바다 건너 친구를 만나러 가요
Fly high yo! Up in the sky yo!
힙합 정치판은 이제 난 Retire
Fly high yo! Up in the sky yo!
We cross oceans to meet our friends, come on
Fly, fly, fly

Verse 2: P-Type)
Instead of brooding over the betrayer’s disgrace
I’ll spit out my beliefs, my skills,
배신자의 괘씸함을 되씹는 대신
내 신념 내 실력 매시간 한 개씩
one at a time. This game is hidden behind a veil
The world’s a game where individuals intervene with each other
Tomorrow, which will eventually come, your untimely intervention
will have left nothing but a deep wound and an intense foul smell
쏟아낼께 이 베일에 가려진 Game
세상은 개인과 개인이 개입 돼 있는 Game
그대의 때 이른 개입은 결국 다가올 내일
가슴 깊게 패인 상처와 짙게 배인
in my chest. What turned me into an invalid
wasn’t caffeine, [but] the dirty game. If you want I’ll gladly
leave. This track is a paper that documents hidden
stories, a tape on which the truth is recorded
구린내만 남겨 날 폐인으로 만든건
카페인이 아냐 더러운 게임 원한다면 흔쾌히
떠나줄께 이 노래는 은폐돼 있던 얘길
기록한 페이퍼 진실이 녹음된 Tape

이 Rap Game에 가득히 채워진 맛없는 Shake의
거품같은 놈들 손에서 Mic를 떼 이제
그리고 매일 내 밤 잠을 괴롭힌 두얼굴의

Fights of cunning guys, petty trickery
Stop and distinguish the truth from lies already

Translator’s Note:
In the original track, Dynamic Duo rap about leaving the Korean hiphop scene with its politics behind and go to a different country to meet up with fellow hiphop artists, Massive Töne. In the remix however, which only features Korean rappers, the “other place” that is mentioned is clearly a metaphor referring to an ideal version of the Korean hiphop scene where no “politics” exist and where the art is more important than the money. There are many other tracks that dream of a similar idea, like FANA‘s ‘Family Planning‘ (where it is a point in time though, instead of a place).
