힙합성애자 [Hip Hop Phile] [hibhabseong-aeja] [English translation]

It was a new world

I didn’t think much of writing or poems

But it came to me suddenly like Shim Chung

I used to be a flightless bird but it opened my eyes

But people keep askin’ baby

Why you love that HIPHOP shit?

Then I tell them, I don’t have a reason, it’s cause it’s hip hop

Nothing special, Epik High, just like others Jay-Z, Nas

And of course the classic Illmatic and Doggystyle, in my mind, KRS-ONE

And Ready To Die, Eminem and The Chronic and the next classic 2001

Gang Starr, Black Star, Eric B, Rakim, Pete Rock and CL smooth

They juss keep poppin

That’s all I listened to

I was like an old lady

I had so much to say that it wasn’t enough with what other people told me

First, I forced it, layer after layer, calling it lyrics

And that was it! uh that was it, when I became me

On the white paper in between my textbooks, I put myself

And I erased it, emptied it, I was free on top of the beat

Seven years ago or now, it’s the same, this is the most me

I’ll be down for your rap

I’ll be down for your rhythm

It still makes my heart pound

It makes me be the real me

Yeah I love this

(Hip! Hop!) Has the scent of humans

(Hip! Hop!) Writing down my life

(Hip! Hop!) Is now part of my life

(Hip! Hop!) Yeah this ma (Hip! Hop!)

Yo ma Hiphop enrollment? I felt it with my body as I entered

Boogaloo, King Tut, old school rhythms

Entrusting the beat with rhyme and my tongue

It shows its prominence, it’s rap dance time

Yeah ma role model, Dynamic Duo, Verbal with Epik High

I’m still inexperienced as I write my resume, breaking down my namelessness, flying on stage

They helped me get up when I didn’t know anything

The artist, ring that rang through my heart

Expressing it with their bodies, Biggie, Tupac, Nas

I found out more about myself

Hope hope world, before I made my own world, Cole world

Ever since he shone on Friday nights, I got inspiration and wrote my songs

Mac Miller, Kanye, Kendrick, their music hits my ears

The best musicians that affixed my life’s borders that went crazy every day

Endless diction, all right, my instincts choose

Whatever rap it is, whatever dance it is, my response is sensual

Now my life melts with hip hop

Today, I’m wild for the night, my body

Feel like A$AP A$AP

I’ll be down for your rap

I’ll be down for your rhythm

It still makes my heart pound

It makes me be the real me

Yeah I love this

(Hip! Hop!) Has the scent of humans

(Hip! Hop!) Writing down my life

(Hip! Hop!) Is now part of my life

(Hip! Hop!) Yeah this ma (Hip! Hop!)

Hip hop has found me

Just like a child looks for his mother

It came into my life naturally

I was just an elementary student back then, I set up my dream then

I want a rapstar, I hated living the same as others, the prematurity of a little kid

Even if people hold me down and warn me

Hip hop persists in me and completely turns me inside out

The young me used to write my 16 bars on the corner of my textbooks

Thanks to that, I threw away my secure life and went to a studio in Namsan-dong, Daegu

All night, I sharpened my blunt pen tip

At the end of my efforts, instead of having a language marks for school

I filled up my rhymes, which made my dreams come true

Everyone asks me, what is hip hop?

Then I confidently answer, my everything

As a result, my life has buried itself into music

If loving this culture is a sin, I’ll die over a hundred times

I’ll be down for your rap

I’ll be down for your rhythm

It still makes my heart pound

It makes me be the real me

Yeah I love this

(Hip! Hop!) Has the scent of humans

(Hip! Hop!) Writing down my life

(Hip! Hop!) Is now part of my life

(Hip! Hop!) Yeah this ma (Hip! Hop!)
