Verse 1: Paloalto)
Smoke another cigarette, can’t seem to quit
Satisfaction and I are on opposite sides
Following my drooping shoulders
Yesterday’s lethargy makes me dizzy
Pretending to be strong, this pride
Within this damn capitalist society
Either disgracefully survive by nearly begging
Or disappear without a trace, like running away
Or follow along the offbeatness of life
The choice always lingers around me
Rushed to make a decision at each fork in the road
It’s like pushing my back when I’m a slow walker
I wanted to live well-rounded, but I become stained
‘I have to survive’ a man has to endure at least this much
Even if I follow behind the devil of weakness
There’s no profit from the exchange
Shout internally ‘don’t blame fate’
Hook: Paloalto & Beenzino)
Be brave, exhale
This hot sweat consoles you
Consoles you
Don’t ever crumble easily
Don’t be influenced by the murky air
Be brave, exhale
This hot sweat consoles you
Consoles you
Don’t ever crumble easily
Don’t be influenced by the murky air
Verse 2: Beenzino)
Within the universe there’s Earth, and within Earth there’s Korea
Korea’s Seoul, that’s where I live
How small must I be to that cloud’s eyes?
Those with smaller brains than I, impossible to understand
Satisfaction, some are easily vain
That person’s aspirations are exactly the size of his car
The women who have ridden that car say
Happiness is getting a perm every two weeks
I’m not saying that simple things are bad
But let’s think about it, at night as opposed to the daytime
Does my heart beat
Or am I losing this game?
When the word ‘moderation’ is stamped to my lips
I’ll go with the flow of the bottom beneath the bottom
Avoiding the indolent night, I write these words
My lazy friends, listen to me
Hook: Paloalto & Beenzino)
Verse 3: Paloalto)
Broken heart, have become used to sadness, and now I’m different
I have become indecisive, wavering
The drought of passion, the thirsty land has ultimately cracked
The confidence of thinking there’s nothing I can’t do, is that conceit?
Or is it my misunderstanding?
Have painted the dark creations of night darker
The situation has become worse
Like a drunkard, my heart rate increases
Be calm, don’t be hasty
There’s a time for everything
Foolishly hanging on above this dangerous gamble
It’s not my style
Why is the focus heavily on profits((The original line, 왜이리 잿밥에 관심많아 literally translates to why is focus heavily on the rice offerings to Buddha. There is a Korean idiom that this line is based on: “There’s no consideration for the Buddhist prayer, only for the rice offering.” To be focused only on the rice offering means that not much effort is put into something, yet profits are still expected and desired.))
Don’t get hurt by falling in the trap of hatred
This lonely fight, shout in my own ears
Worn down faith, the sword of betrayal threatens my back
Don’t harm yourself, again I firmly grasp the mic in my right hand
Hook: Paloalto & Beenzino)
