Hook)
Even if I lay down, even if I’m tired, I can’t sleep
Only paralyzing nightmares welcome me
I open the fridge and drink
Half a bottle of soju
Half a bottle of soju

Verse 1)
I used to avoid drinking parties
But now I look for alcohol
I couldn’t understand before why people drank
It tasted badly, gained nothing from it, and wasn’t fun

Now it’s different
Nowadays this is sweet
If I can’t sleep, I don’t worry
This is much more attractive than sleeping pills
I’ve become fond of it as if it’s my friend

The night becomes early morning
I try to close the faucet of my thoughts
My unending self-criticisms
Momentarily flow away in my drunken state

I’m at ease, before I sleep
I pray, I desperately say
Please allow me to let go of everything
Please allow me to let go of everything

Hook)

Verse 2)
That’s right. Lies are eventually exposed
Even still, I hide my flaws
I want to be perfect
To those who like me, I want them to be satisfied

But now I know I was stupid
You wanna be a star?
Then don’t betray
You’ll hate me as much as you loved me

Although I can’t do anything about spilled water
I repeat it everyday
The chant: I’ll come back in front of everyone as a better man
My crying and smiling self, as if I had a mental disability

I try to pour large amounts of alcohol
Over my hurting heart
Growth is bitter
If you endure, flowers will bloom

I won’t repeat ever again
Fuck the past
I say, fuck the past
If you wanted me to crumble, sorry I’m back

Hook)

Outro)
I don’t know what to do
Tomorrow will be like today
What should I do now?
What should I do now?

Verse 1)
I’ve walked after a reliable shadow
I wanted to take over their baton and write history
The kid that imitated The Q-hyung’s rap
luckily got accepted into his dream: Soul Company

At first, a black sheep that rebelled quite boldly
The songs I wrote got turned down several times
but I can’t give up the microphone I’ve seized
I’m a hot-blooded type.((Pun; in Korean, blood means ‘p’ → reference/shout-out to P-Type)) I go only one way, Don Quixote

It’s sweet to be insulted
What’s really bitter aren’t insults but indifference
To the concerts I gave every month came about 4 fans
They’ve probably forgotten about me but I can’t forget them, uh

There’s nothing much I’ve accomplished in my life
but nobody can live my life in my stead
You know, I don’t have time anymore
because I’m busy making music for everyone, boy

Verse 2)
I hope that someone will walk
after my shadow, like I did
No matter what kind of mistakes I’ll commit in the future,
I will definitely make better music

Even when I’m talking a bit ahead of myself at times,
that is not my delusion, this is a shadow for you
I want to be the shade for many people((The Korean word ‘그늘’ he uses here and in the following line can also mean ‘shadow’ or ‘protection/care’.))
Since I also grew up in their shade

I never envied great musicians
I rather raised my dream and gained courage
“I can do it,” I etched this childish sentence into my mind
How much are you actually believing in yourself?

Losers have a lot to say, winners are quiet
That is the reality I’ve seen. I’ve dreamed of being the king
It’s easy, pretend your life is a play
What is your role, you who’s plunking on a keyboard?

Outro)
Although I don’t know
as what kind of a person I’ll be remembered
after time has passed,
I just grab my pen

I will sing about all truths
Follow me,
trust me,
[trust] in my shadow

Intro)
Copy us, everybody!
Sample this song, hurry!
Your guys’ job is to plagiarize
Show me what you got lil boy

Verse 1: Basick)
We set the TREND, that means we standin’
at the frontline of this shit, ‘leaders’ that’s what we are
An endless continuation of practice is the base of creation
If you want that, it’s a natural violation of the rules

To be the chosen one, you know that’s always something divine
As a chosen one, I show the design of rhyme and flow
If you don’t copy me, you’ll alienate yourself, I’ll be king like T.I.
I can’t bear to fall behind, number one, ichiban((Japanese for ‘number one’))

We the trendsetterz cuz we set the trend
The reason is simple, what we spit kills
Break ya neck again, your neck will break from nodding
You need to bend your neck to see me, so I unintentionally get insulted

Because I enjoy it, it’s fun. Even without eating dogs or snakes,
I have infinite stamina, and for you jealous people
I’m doin’ somethin’ new again so y’all can follow
Honestly, there’s nothing to it, I eat raw [food] everyday

Hook x2)
Copy us, everybody!
Sample this song, hurry!
Your guys’ job is to plagiarize
We’re the trendsetterz
Show me what you got lil boy

Verse 2)
I’m a- I’m a trendsetter, auto-tune master
When I’m in the mood, I also sing a bit, I’m a multi-talented rapper
Everybody copies me, it’s alright, go on and copy me
My head is overflowing with inspiration anyway

Ay, I’ll let you briefly know a few facts
I am the progenitor of subtle jokes
On top of that, I’ve showed you that I’m South Korea’s best
‘iPad Show’ (maybe the world’s first)

Men have always been like that, there are two kinds
Those who walk ahead and those who follow
I’m in a different dimension, including my fashion
Even if I wear whatever, it’s hot and stylish

so I don’t buy brand-name products
If I do, I buy one article in all colors from Zara or AA
It’s my life, I am my role model
Or models copy me, hahaha

Hook x2)

Bridge x2)
Even now in this moment,
ideas keep coming to my mind
I am tired as well, I am fed up with me,
with this gifted brain((The lyrics here actually go “with this gifted right cerebral hemisphere,” referring to the idea that the right hemisphere is in charge of things like creativity and intuition.))

Hook x4)
