hi hi random post again. this time it's to mention how much i respect tablo. why is his english so good. i don't even understand some of the words he uses in his songs. his korean raps punya meaning pun like sobs. here are some of my favorite ones from the album shoebox. i really need to use them in my essays hurhur. tbh if i can i'll just copy paste the whole album here but uhh nvm.
Happen Ending
1. Just when I think I’d die for someone,
I’d kill them out of spite.
Parting is murder anyway.
The way you bury a living person in your memory.
2. Funny that what separates man from beast
turns a man into a beast.
3. You gamble with love,
but that same love is someone’s life savings.
Then you get someone else to buy your lies,
having that next person pay your debts.
Rich
1. She, who wanted to fly like a bird, bought a plane ticket.
He, who wanted the skies and the seas in the palm of
his hands, bought a large globe.
Everyone hangs a price tag on their dreams,
but no matter how much you spend,
your hearts are empty shopping carts.
Burj Khalifa
1. Say no, no, no to drugs.
Earphones over needles.
Got celebs lining up like my music is propofol.
Amor Fati
1. You’re my sleeping pills, my caffeine.
My virus, my vaccine.
Born Hater (1st one is actually by VJ and 2nd + 3rd one is by Mino)
1. I don’t need y’all feedback, seriously.
Why do I need to talk music with you?
All you’ve done for me is point your cursors at me.
2. Before you talk trash, go look in a mirror.
When you see me on TV, be my guest and turn it off.
They say I’ve changed, behind my back.
Whatever, I wanted to.
3. Old-fashioned mentality,
saying the experience is king
and the elders are the s---, boy.
Is time a fund?
I’ll bankrupt you, boy.
Lesson 5
1. A demon
in your computer, phone and TV.
Bite-sized truth on sale, everywhere you look.
It’s easy.
One bite and a wick germinates.
A tiny spark of discontent sets self-righteousness ablaze.
Justifies all crimes.
Self-defence, murder, whatever.
Never guilty.
A mind that craves right and wrong creates a divide
and incites
until gray becomes black and white, charcoal and ashes.
2. Computer, phone and TV,
tightrope walking on public opinion.
Idols bite their tongue and there are no saviours.
Shut up and you get rich,
say what needs to be said and you get punished.
Superficiality is sanctified.
Truth is pretention. Sincerity is pretense.
Popular sentiment has become right and wrong,
dividing and inciting
until gray becomes black and white,
charcoal and ashes.
If the whole world holds its tongue,
he who was deaf to begin with is king.
Eyes Nose Lips
1. You’re the victor in this pageantry.
But the only trophy you deserve… catastrophe.
2. So take it slow and let time heal everything.
They say that time flies
but you keep breakin’ its wings.
