Intro x3)
Take you on a faraway
trip n you just ride on it,
Fresher place we travelin’
and I just gotta drop on this.
Verse 1)
One for the money,
I know very well that what I need in life
is money
but that does not represent the life I live
While making music,
I include in it my feelings about things I experienced
That is how my life has been and if anyone wants to change me
I’ll make them step back and show them my potential
Two for that bishes.
They tell me, “KP’s got no -ishes”
But exactly that becomes my advantage
and makes me shine
I make my name more widely known in real time
Countless words are attached to my name and taken off it again,
they press down on my shoulders, always.
However, they are my wings and that is the reason why they were heavy
Climb 1)
I’m going to show it now, my IDDIM((The mixtape this track is off is titled ‘KING IDDIM’.))
#ItGMa((= Don’t forget; reference to Keith Ape song)) my name, nor my team
Flashin’ back on the times when they forgot about me,
I am going to prevent things like that from happening in the future
Yes Imma bang wit it, bang wit it. Blowin’ down beats,
leavin’ holes on ’em. How you gonna go without me,
I’m pretty sure I got hated by the fuckin’ rappers
and the fans never really got to know about me. So I …
Narration)((Taken from Knxwledge – Preservatives))
– You’re funny man
– Not enough funny, and I ain’t laughin’
Climb 2)
So I’m rockin’ it, rockin’ it with the beats,
I be standin’ like a fuckin’ man, no peats
Feelin’ so fly, but I ain’t smokin’ weed
and I prolly got my muthufuckin’ homies rappin’ 9 to 5
That’s how we makin’ our muthufuckin’ hours fuckin’ golden
When you soundin’ fuckin’ dry, I be swimmin’ in the ocean
There probably is not one person who does it like me
So even though you see my colors you won’t know my name
Verse 2)
I’ll say it again, you probably won’t know even when you see,
what you saw in me
Even when you see it you don’t know so you can’t see it
I ignore you, I ain’t sweet
I pour it on the rhythm, my exhaustion
We don’t get ’em, they’ll all stop revolting on their own
or stop in their tracks
That’s why I told you earlier not to forget my name
This goes without saying, I don’t
talk to anyone. Those who know already know
and those who don’t know I don’t really recognize either
If you really don’t know, I hope you know by now
Ay, it’s funny how I do it.
Although I spit simply I maintain my superiority
And my dream that only I used to see is now colored,
it keeps catching my eye
Verse 1)
Love is an expression, and sometimes becomes time.((The Korean lyrics have punctuation as well, it appears important for interpreting the lyrics so all commas and full stops you find are the exact same in the Korean lyrics (with one exception: the commas after “well” in Verse 2).))
Love is a word, and can become a phrase too.
Together with a beauty that is hard to explain,
the words one woven verse contains become language.
Then I translate that beautiful imagination.
I sell the lyrics, the gratitude is monetary.
However, we live entangled in numbers.
Two is better than one and better than two are three, four
When counting, the shape of the mouth is awkward as if learning to dance for the first time,
we keep counting until the strangeness wears off
To feel happy inside, we have to provide our days of youth and courage to
several circuits that compete through calculations
Even when we’re sad, we give it((= the feeling of sadness)) a sad numerical value.
You((Note: The lyrics have no pronoun here, this is interpretation, as in several other cases throughout these lyrics.)) shoulder the judgmental gaze of someone with a large size((Not sure if the word “size” is appropriate, but it probably is metaphorically used for someone in some way superior.))
and whisper love to her who you have seen for the first time today
You even offer your little finger,((= make promises; refers to a pinky promise)) saying that it is the natural thing to do
Hook)
Bounce, bounce
You said that you learned to love somebody so you did it
All I can say for you for that is that you really didn’t
It’s all about love, love, love, love
You easily believe that something is love
although it isn’t even a good feeling
Man you gotta learn to love it,
learn to love it, learn to love it
Verse 2)
My time is my very own.
The people on the small screen are quite noisy
so when I meet them I sometimes put them on mute and watch,
tt seems desolate and their expressions look lonely too, yes.
Well, that thing called love, well, it’s probably difficult.
That is how amazing and great it is. Unlike a brief joy,
it’s the feelings of a mother embracing her child,
or the feelings so great that you look out for her((= girlfriend/significant other)) even on the other side of the world.
However, undressing her
is easier than a mathematical problem and repeats itself,
put the desire that was stilled overnight back to sleep.
Your feelings of accepting her are satisfied with only her body.
Wanting each other does not go deeper than skin-deep.
That’s probably exactly where your feelings end.
The winter in December is very freezing,
and your time is as cold as the snow piled up on the streets.
ROKHIPHOP has started this interview series to look for rappers who have released good mixtapes and albums but receive relatively less attention, thus the series is titled ‘SCV’s Mineral Excavation Interview’. This time, the guest is Khundi Panda who has been receiving a lot of attention recently.
