EPIK HIGH - In Seoul (English Translation) ft. Sunwoo JungA
[Tablo]
Yessir
No king, no queen, no court jester
Wishing upon the night sky
But who would listen?
Nobody
Even god has let go
In this city, they pick stars off the night sky and sell them off
You can't even breathe out
Open your mouth and they’ll take your tongue away, too
Dreams are nothing but dreams
Even if you dream, you can't wake up
Till you rest in peace
After putting your life on the line for success
Nobody's sayin’ cheese on their way to mo' chedda
No answer
Look for it in the map
The way to life is narrow
Only dead ends are a dime a dozen
Feel like I'm back in the Map the Soul era
Imma be awake forever
I'm sleepless in Seoul
Sleepless in Seoul
[Sunwoo Jung-a]
I'm sleepless in Seoul
Again, I'm tossing and turning all night
Anxious thought and regrets gather in my room
That miserable moonlight is me
That lonely starlight is me
[Mithra Jin]
The city's commotion has taken away its tranquility
The world's anger eats into my eyes and ears
Irresponsible words and the vicious cycle of inequality
They only fuel more passion, and the discontent grows
In this society that makes you draw your own lines
There is no exit, and my body is filled with sweat
Envy and jealousy, mistakes unacknowledged
Only blaming others and taking sides
I’m only used to seeing backstabbers
Every window shows me another negative story
Of course I’d close my eyes
Probably because I'm afraid
No time to cross my arms, they make me put my hands up
This noisy city keeps me up at night
[Sunwoo Jung-a]
I’m sleepless in Seoul
Again, I'm tossing and turning all night
Anxious thought and regrets gather in my room
That miserable moonlight is me
That lonely starlight is me
