Epik High – Don’t Hate Me

* Everybody hates me, but you love me and I love you
Oh oh oh (whoa oh oh) I only need you to clap for me baby
The whole world is my anti but the reason why I smile
Oh oh oh (whoa oh oh) is because I only need you to be on my side

1, 2, 3, 4!

Everyone only harasses me, turning my mistakes into faults
The whole world hammers down on my mouth, as if I’m a nail
My heart is filled with holes, only tears seep through. Can’t I even smile? Why can’t I?
Do ask why I hate people?
But there are thousands of reasons why people hate me
Everyone says that it’s all my fault
All the goalkeepers that block my mouth, they say they don’t wanna see me^

Everyone only hates me
Everyone only dislikes me
Everyone only judges me
If I don’t have you, I think I’ll go crazy

* Repeat

The only ray of light that shines in my mouse hole
I want to share this sadness but it’s all my portion
You just smile at me and hide
Go behind the world’s biggest shield and just embrace happiness
With me, who is such a turn off, who is a public enemy
With me, who becomes a controversy by just breathing, who is the public gum^^
You enjoy standing and dancing on top of the chopping block
You have such strange tastes

Everyone only says something about me
They aim at me with arrows
They want me to disappear
If I don’t have you, I think I’ll die

* Repeat

Am I that despicable?
Please love me

They love me, they hate me
They love me, they hate me
They love me, they hate me
Love and hate! Guess I’m thankful for both

* Repeat

Hate me. Hate me. Hate me. Hate me. Hey hey hey hey.
Hate me (don’t hate me). Hate me (don’t hate me).
Hate me (don’t hate me).
Please love me.

I only need you to be my fan!


^ Word play. It can also be “All the goalkeepers that block my mouth, they hate goals.”
^^ People chew gum and in Korean, “to chew” is slang for talking badly about someone or totally ignoring their presence.

Hoping to be a bridge between k-pop music & k-pop fans who don't understand the Korean language.
