Lyrics and translation Paloalto - Free Speech Interlude

Free Speech Interlude

자기소개 안해 난 그건 시간낭비
이거 듣는 사람들은 내 이름 다 알지
알려진 몇곡으로 날 안다는듯 속단하지마
요즘보면 무슨 모두가 평론가
친숙한 이미지 혹은 착한오빠
그런거 난 안할래 먼저 내 음악들어봐
튀고싶어서 억지로 돌직구 안던져
솔직한게 대세라며 골빈애들 막던져
생각하고 말해, 듣는사람을 완전 쌩깔거면
아예 말 자체를 그만해
듣기싫은 소리하면 꼰대, hater되
속좁은 새끼들아 난 너네 hater네
힙합이 대중화됐다는 말은 좀 낯설어
나를 포함한 소수 랩퍼들만 좀 바빠졌을뿐
예나지금이나 난 변함없이
나를 어필하는중이고 마음은 평화롭지
멋을 쫓기전에 거울속에 너를 봐
진짜 거울말고 마음속에 거울말야
남 코스프레하는 너희 복제인간들
백날 우월한척해도 짱이 못되
존중할줄모르면서 존중만바라는
이기적인 새끼들 네 꼴을 봐
애정결핍에 열등감 넘쳐
악수하려면 손을뻗어봐 먼저
세상을 바꿀마음보다는
작품의 질을 올리고 하고싶은 얘기할뿐
그게 틀리든 맞든, 칭찬 혹은 악플
뭐든 상관없어 계속 풀려가는 갈증
이분법적인 사고, 난 질색
그렇게 단순하지않아 요지경 우리네 인생
꼭 하나 골라야만해? 검은색, 흰색
때에 맞는 선택할뿐, 신경안써 실세

Free Speech Interlude

I won't introduce myself, that's a waste of time
Everyone listening to this already knows my name
Don't jump to conclusions thinking you know me based on a few popular songs
These days it seems like everyone's a critic
A familiar image or a nice guy
I won't do that, listen to my music first
I don't force straight balls just to stand out
Empty-headed fools throw them around saying honesty is the trend
Think before you speak, if you're going to completely ignore the listener
Just shut up altogether
If you say something unpleasant, you become an old fogey, a hater
Narrow-minded jerks, I'm your hater
The saying that hip-hop has become popular sounds strange to me
Only a few rappers, including myself, have gotten a bit busier
Just like before, I'm still
Appealing myself and my heart is at peace
Before chasing trends, look at yourself in the mirror
Not the real mirror, but the mirror in your heart
You replicas cosplaying others
You can pretend to be superior all you want, but you won't become the best
You selfish bastards who don't know how to respect
But only want respect, look at yourself
Overflowing with lack of affection and inferiority complex
If you want to shake hands, extend your hand first
Rather than changing the world
I'll just raise the quality of my work and say what I want to say
Whether it's right or wrong, praise or hate comments
It doesn't matter, the thirst keeps getting quenched
I hate dichotomous thinking
Our lives aren't that simple, they're a kaleidoscope
Do you have to choose just one? Black or white
I just make the right choices at the right time, I don't care about power
