Intro)
Let it show, let it show
Stop talkin’ now and show it
Let it show, let it show
Stop talkin’ now and show it

Bounce, bounce, bounce
You gotta bounce like
Bounce, bounce, bounce
You gotta bounce like

Hook)
Tatts on arms, back, chest, go and let it show
If you got swag stop talkin’ bout it, let it show
Girls in the club, if you got ass let it show
If you got cash then you know you gotta let it show

Show, show, now go and let it show
Show, show, now go and let it show
Show, show, now go and let it show
Hi-Lite, Illionaire, you know we gonna let it show

Verse 1)
I’m in the house like monthly rent
The damp temperature in the club is totally tropical
Someone order drinks, some expensive alcohol, open it
Go up to a pretty girl and clink glasses right away

Yeah, party hard like your birthday
We’re honey bees like Wu Tang
Born in the year of the ox,((B-Free was born 1985)) that bull shit Lamborghini Mercy
Now work it, shake it like an earthquake, hey

Let it show, let it show, your everything
She says, “It’s give and take”
(OK) I can’t give you a lot
but for now take this Jägerbomb, tonight let me blow your mind

Yes, I light things up a bit,((Could be a pun on “light up” which has several meanings, so this part can also be translated as: “Yes, I dig it a bit” and might be implying that he likes to party/have fun/…)) Hi-Lite
I work hard and do well, hell yeah I fuck it right
All and everyone is busy having fun so
let it show, let it show, come on show me what you got

Hook)

Verse 2: Okasian)
It’s all about looks so I gotta let it show
If you got swag, fuck rappin’ bout it, just let it show
If you got cash, fuck braggin’ bout it, just spend it bruh, bruh
Fuck braggin’ bout it just spend it bruh

All talk and more talk, you’re quite fancy only on the surface
When you go to a year-end party you’ll talk blahblah of the past again, uh
I don’t believe what I haven’t seen, shut the fuck up
OK I’ll let it slide, empty your drink already

If you’re really hot in the club then take it off
Those who pretend to be well-behaved, please stop it now
Even if your breasts are small, there’s no need to be careful
You can keep your pretty bra on, just pull your skirts up

Uh, hit the ground with your ass and the ground returns it
I’m not joking, I don’t make jokes
When it comes to havin’ fun, we’re pros you’re amateurs
So lil mama let it show, tell ’em

Verse 3: Beenzino)
A navy MTM sweater and camouflage shorts
I’m fresher than a mufucker, hairstyle like Ryota Miyagi((Character from the manga/anime Slam Dunk))
Point guard,((Basketball position, another reference to Slam Dunk (see previous line too) )) the key to opening girls’ hearts
I don’t have a foreign car yet but I’m wild and young and free

Fuck that money, fuck that pop, fuck that DD((Dynamic Duo)) wannabes,
Fuck that smartasses who steal my music, all of them
Who’s the underground king now? It’s a bit embarrassing
to say this myself but fuck it bitch it’s me now .. so ..

It’s on me, the alcohol is all free
Nothing’s forever but my stock price is still high
2010 feature king, got 7,000 with my first EP
And thanks to a nationwide tour 350 in one week

Damn, let’s celebrate, man I’m only 26
Hip hop has saved me from the hell that is unemployment
And you never been this far like me, fuck broke, RIP
Hi-Lite, Illionaire, our music is always alive

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)

CJ E&M Music Performance Division Acquires ‘Hi-Lite Records’

CJ E&M Music Performance Division has acquired the hip-hop label ‘Hi-Lite Records.’

On the 16th, a representative from CJ E&M Music stated, “In order for the genre of hip-hop to grow and succeed long-term on a global scale, CJ E&M Music Performance Division and Hi-Lite Records have positively cooperated and arrived at this decision.”

‘Hi-Lite Records’ is a well-known label in the underground hip-hop scene, credited for their authentic sound and artists such as the label’s representative Paloalto, B-free, Huckleberry P, and Reddy.

Through CJ E&M Music’s various influences in areas such as investment, marketing, and global networking, it hopes to provide ‘Hi-Lite Records’ with the resources and support to steadily run its label and focus on producing music.

Through this acquisition, the label plans on continuing to focus on hip-hop and diverse sounds.

CJ E&M Music’s Division Head Suk-joon Ahn stated, “With a limited variety of genres in this country’s music industry, it is urgent that a diversity of genres be made available to listeners. There is great potential in a skilled hip-hop record label such as ‘Hi-Lite Records’ to revamp Korea’s music industry.”

Ahn added, “We will do our best to support ‘Hi-Lite Records’ in progressing and reaching its full potential in the future as a label that becomes well-known and respected both nationally and globally.”
