Paint and Poetry

ZICO (Block B) - Dead President

Money disgust me, I fear it
what is this green piece of paper?
We’re all scared of the greater men now
In fear, I don’t know more

Politics, the economy, the education system, and the media. Our souls are twisted and dirtied in the midst of it all. All of the problems eventually end up at money

It’s always money that’s the problem (money money money)
the majority of the people of Korea sign a slave contract before they’re born.

Even before they learn how to walk, they are forced to speak english fluently
why? it’s obvious why. 100 reasons out of a 100, it’s because their parents want a comfortable retirement

Curse ft. Nneka: ‘Baby’

“Ich koennte sein
dass du mich garnicht vermisst
Weil du zwar weisst
das es mich gibt

aber weiterhin nichts…

Ich schreibt dir dieses Lied
fuer jede einzelne Moment
an den du dennkst
das es niemand gibt
der dich liebt.”

노리플라이 - 그저 그런 하루

특별한 얘긴 하지 않을 걸 아마 
누굴 만났고 누군 별로고 그런
시시콜콜한 말들로 웅성이는 그 틈 속에 
내 얘기도 뭐 별 다를 건 없겠지
