[English]

It is the news of life, the news of freedom.

IX EX MACHINA 2.0 BewhY

My life is a movie, so I pray, IX EX MACHINA

Throw away my perfect pic, it’s full of flaws and stains

Failure is behind me now, even if I collapse, it’s under my feet

Building anew, the style is just like a SOUTHSIDE FREESTYLE

IX EX MACHINA 2.0 BewhY

My life is a movie, so I pray

Whippin' da pyrex

She breaks that 9 eggs - Wifey designs the belly full of a child

Children's books in Incheon, mic check in Europe

Won sign, her resignation, I don't exchange new money, Dollar sign stack

Trying to be an 032 man, a father from Seoul

A lullaby on the neck of my wife, the mother of two daughters

I seek my own benefit over the culture, the more the better, my nose and mouth are full of songs

I want checks on my pockets and feet, but let me follow the Stripes

Sweat beads on my philtrum, was it a handshake, my label?

I want abundance, whether in this world or the next

Discard Take 1, Take 2

For 1 Queen and 2 Angels, I need to provide a new home and new bedding

IX EX MACHINA 2.0 BewhY

My life is a movie, so I pray, IX EX MACHINA

Throw away my perfect pic, it’s full of flaws and stains

Failure is behind me now, even if I collapse, it’s under my feet

Building anew, the style is just like a SOUTHSIDE FREESTYLE

IX EX MACHINA 2.0 BewhY

My life is a movie, so I pray

I spit to take care of myself, hoping to lie down, the Han River ruins

A sanctuary with mountains in the back and water in the front, my faithful wife, no mistresses in my photo album

The cup is overflowing, sloshing, don't make fake friends, swaying

Grab the dirty hands, IX, grab the hem of my pants

Failure is dejavu, mistakes are a new mentor

The words I spat out flew far away, Pegasus

Reasoning again, reasoning again

New land, company, assets, new freedom

The lips on my face that insulted the failed me

Twinkling stars leak out from outside the door, outside her lips

Collecting money-stained fingerprints and formula-stained fingerprints

Can I abandon my own child and fill someone else's plate?

If I were righteous, I wouldn't have knelt before an empty grave

If I were righteous, I would have knelt before the sickle and hammer

The harlot is instigating

Trying to make love go extinct

There is success in my voice

In the beauty's voice

IX EX MACHINA 2.0 BewhY

내 삶 영화니 빈다 IX EX MACHINA

버려 내 Perfect pic 가득해 흠과 티

실패 이제 내 뒤 무너져도 발 밑

새로 건설 스타일은 마치 SOUTHSIDE FREESTYLE

IX EX MACHINA 2.0 BewhY

내 삶 영화니 빈다

Whippin da pyrex

She breaks that 9 eggs Wifey 디자인해 가득히 아이 배에

인천에서 아이 책 유럽에서 mic check

Won sign 그녀 사임 새 환전 안 해 Dollar sign stack

032사나이 될라 해 서울시 아바이

두 딸래미 어마이 목에는 Lullaby

나는 문화보다 사익 추구해 다다익선 노래 가득 코와 입

원해 주머니와 발엔 Checks 허나 따르게 하소서 Stripes

땀 맺히네 인중 악수였나 내 Label

풍요를 원해 현세이던 내세이던

Take 1 버리고 Take 2

1 Queen 2 Angel 위해서 마련해야 돼 새 집 새 이불

IX EX MACHINA 2.0 BewhY

내 삶 영화니 빈다

앞가림할라 뱉어 눕기를 바라 한강 터

배산임수 안식처 조강지처 첩들이 없지 내 사진첩

잔 넘쳐나지 출렁 거짓 벗 하지 술렁

더러운 손은 잡어 IX 바지끄렁

실패는 Dejavu 실수는 새 사부

뱉은 말은 멀리 날아갔어 Pegasus

다시 하네 사유 다시 하네 사유

새 땅 회사 재산 새 자유

실패한 나를 모욕했던 내 얼굴의 입술과

문 밖에 새어 나와 Twinkle star 그녀 입술 밖

돈 때묻은 지문과 분유 묻은 지문 모아

내 자녀 버리고 남의 접시 채워줄 수가 있을까

나 선했다면 안 꿇었겠지 빈 무덤 앞에

나 선했다면 꿇었겠지 낫과 망치 앞에

음녀는 선동

할라해 사랑 멸종

내 목소리엔 성공

미녀 목소리엔
