RM
BTS - Hip Hop Lover/Phile (English Translation)
[Intro: RM]
People wonder why we love this h-i-p h-o-p, shit
Why we got so much guys in this culture, tell me
[Verse 1: RM]
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
[Pre-Chorus: Jungkook, RM]
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
[Chorus: V]
(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!)
[Verse 2: J-Hope]
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, 2Pac, 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
[Pre-Chorus: Jimin]
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
[Chorus: Jin]
(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!)
[Verse 3: Suga]
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, as others
I hated living the same, 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
[Pre-Chorus: Jungkook]
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
[Chorus: Jin, V]
(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!)
