Intro: The Quiett)
The energy that can be heard only in our music won’t stop.
No matter what happens, I won’t believe in my limit.
I had this .. some kind of ambition,
that I would definitely see things until the end.
Verse 1: Sean2slow)
Don’t waste your feelings, bring pains to kill it((Probably refers to Method Man’s “Bring the Pain”))
Write rhymes to believe in, be smart what you spit
Well, prepare for your willing, control what you deal with
Sky is the limit. Get it? Spit what your dream is
Lyrical life brings better tomorrow
Follow your dreams, money follows anyway
Chase dreams, just let ’em dollars to follow
I sell. I won’t advertise you((Pun on sell and advertise; in Korea, to advertise literally means to sell medicine for sb.))
Hard to get luck some. Just talk some. Say what?
Music that complies with money, just don’t give a fuck
Verse 2: Beenzino)
When I was spitting, all of you start running late
after resting on the bed, then stop and make excuses
Retarded assholes, you’ll all end up as moochers
That’s why you never been here
I’ve already told you about my aka,
about my label, yeah I’m reppin’ that gang
My watch is a Rolex, and it’s 11:11
To my competitors I’m Been Laden, bin Laden((Wordplay; these two syllables ‘been’ and ‘bin’ are both written as ‘빈’ in Korean.))
I’m living an exciting life, unlike you
Dig this motherfucker, before it’s too late, hurry
I’m pimpin’ in the parkin’ lot, where you at?
You’re probably walking through the streets, but my vehicle’s foreign
Shit, hold on tight,((Possible reference to The Quiett’s ‘꽉 잡아 [Hold on Tight] (Feat. Jinbo)’)) my car is a bit fast
My moves are different, shout out to my brother((Reference to DG’s ‘움직임이 조금다르지’ [My Moves are a bit Different]))
And fuck all the haters in the internet world
Time goes quite too fast to be interested in other people
So I live my life. Also, I have a lot of things to do
I don’t only do concerts, I also go on the runway
and grab the microphone with models
Oh, my God. The woman sitting in the seat next to me is Gong Hyojin-noona((Gong Hyojin is a popular Korean actress who acted in dramas such as “The Greatest Love”.))
God damn, there’s also an idol
two seats next to me but I’m not her fan, sorry
The cameras click and people ask:
“Zino, what’s that brand?” Uh
Verse 3: MC Meta)
My flow flows like a river, smoothly
My rhymes constantly call out your passion
That fate which settled down as it pleased. Next to it
is the wall of reality, which is not easy to overcome. At its height,
you give up easily. Opportunities avoid you
In that falling rain, only your feet are soaked
There’s nowhere to go in. Where’s your home?
As there’s nothing left on the abandoned street
This game is a popularity chart too, the ones who do well are the sunbaes
People are greeted in the order of the amount of money they earn from album sales
A market place without a conscience, everyone’s keeping each other in check
If you fall behind in the competition, you’re only exempted from making money
When someone’s rap is lame or sick,
“Wow! I will take this chance! Choose!”
Kill or save. Or stop yourself
If the same happens to you, you wasted another opportunity
I dust off the whole past and risk all my luck
There are no words that I don’t know the meaning of
My assonances will never betray me in the end
Combos of retards are overflowing in this scene all over
Among them is the mass media with wrong information
Amongst the many opportunities, there is none for me
And it’s sweet. The result of mass hypnotism:
“I want it, the success you desire”
Even though they act tough, they don’t do the real tough things
Hearing the word “bubble,” they just foam at the mouth
Burning up with anger, only acting strong on the outside
For envy and jealousy they get a full score of 100 points
Like swallowing a fireball, if I don’t spit it out I die
I open my eyes and confirm the traces my dream left behind
Everyday I die and am born, if I close my eyes
Tomorrow again I will die and be born, in a musical sense
Verse 4: The Quiett)
Dude, you’re not me. You definitely don’t know me
People are always surprised when they find out about my life
I succeed once again and make it big. I don’t know
limits or impossibilities, I don’t know falling
Between money and dreams, I choose dreams
Just what is the purpose of a life without dreams?
You say, “How nice it would be to have a lot of money”
Money isn’t everything. People keep being deceived
That’s the reason why [some] guys sign contracts
When that mere single sheet of paper has burned, hatred is left
There’s certainly nothing easy in this world
Even now, many guys are searching thoroughly for a backdoor
I also know that a lot of rappers wanted
nothing but filial piety, not the huge success
or the money. I’m the motherfucker
who has achieved those guys’ first dream
I had the confidence to die a thousand times if it was for my dreams
Could you have done it like me? If it had been you?
More than half of the things I possess now
aren’t what I originally wanted. However,
I didn’t need to stubbornly reject them
If the world had prepared them for me then why would I reject them?
If I couldn’t live a better life, why would I breathe?
That’s right, I don’t need anything else
This is my life. Except for my decisions,
there’s nothing that can stop me. Above,
there are mountains I need to overcome and on them,
there are things for me to obtain. Back then
I was very young but now I’m not
I’m saying I came until here with my own strength
I’m saying I came until here in my own way
Those without self-confidence should go home now
Verse 5: Dok2)
High minded ambition. My vision so clear like my diamonds
My night is brighter than you guys’ morning and daytime
The life I have dreamed of becomes reality. Next,
my motto is to live the many days I have left without regrets
I put my thoughts into action right away, I don’t make a difference [between the two].
I live my life like there’s no tomorrow((Reference to The Quiett’s ‘Tomorrow’))
Man, fuck negativity. I don’t deal with that type of stuff
You guys can walk on the same path. I’ll go separately
I’m an Illionaire, I can live just well without doing dumb stuff
Those bastards that are like sulky bitches the whole time can all suck mine
Suck my mothafuckin’ dick. I piss on ’em, R. Kelly((R.Kelly is infamous for pissing on a girl during a performance before.))
“Came from the bottom” tatted on my belly
From Cali to Nevada, Hawaii my destination
Me standing on stage again repeats itself, masturbation
Half man, half amazin’, Asian
Chasin’ dreams and tastin’ cream, an addiction you can’t overcome
I’m not even out of breath. I don’t even dream
of dropping out in the middle. So that I don’t become magnanimous on my way,
I never turn around. From Friday & Saturday to Monday & Tuesday
No days off, I work hard, man, word life no
turn down for what. I’mma do it fo my people
“putang inamo, tumahimik ka”, my lineage((“Putang inamo” and “tumahimik ka” are phrases in Tagalog. “Putang inamo” literally means “your mother is a hooker” and can be used to mean “son of a bitch”, “motherfucker” etc. “Tumahimik ka” means “shut up”. So therefore, in English Dok2 is saying something like “shut up, motherfucker” (Dok2 is ¼ Filipino ¼ Spanish).))
My future is see-thru, crystal clear
A never wavering faith. I ain’t got no fear
Yeah, we here.((Reference to Illionaire Record’s ‘We Here’)) What the fuck you gon’ do about it?
Even if my path is blocked in front of me, I shall pass on a different path
You guys are all just some small fries that can be easily influenced
When I stretch out my two legs and sleep, you chatter your teeth and feel cold
You can’t overtake me. You’re always behind me.
When you’re about to catch up with me, I go farther. I’m always beyond
My vision is clear, I always walk brazenly
Today’s dream is tomorrow’s reality. I have a habit of getting anything
if I want it. I look at the watch on my wrist
The time is 11:11,((Reference to Illionaire Records’ ’11:11′)) fuckin’ Illionaire time
My persistent rhymes, today too I arrange them as I please
“Kimochii,” feel good, my mood is always good((“Kimochii” means “feel good” in Japanese.))
Don’t spoil it, just live your own life
I’m going, after busily working I’ll buy a necklace or something
I don’t spare it, my youth. I go all in
Gutter to millionaire, I made it mothafucka
Outro: Dok2)
Gutter to millionaire, I made it mothafucka
I said gutter to millionaire, I made it mothafuckas
No doubt
