LeeSsang – Poison Gas (독기)

I get up from this life that is like a ditch
I live by achieving what I want
I go up more more more, go up
Writing lyrics about the pains of life is my expertise
The shudders that feel the darkness, the things that are soaked with tears-
That is almost all of my music
But now I can’t do it anymore- writing hungry songs
I spent hard days because of money
But now I make thousands of dollars per month
Sometimes I get shocked- is this really my car, my house?
Is this all possible?
Is this road ahead of me really my road?
Music is the only place I stayed at
I kept all the promises of becoming successful and making money through music
Now I erased all poverty in my lyrics
I always trusted myself like that

* In the swamp of life, swamp my life
I saw a bigger world
So that I won’t regret at the end of my life
I crazily run- as if I’m crazy
In the swamp of life, swamp of life
I saw a bigger world
So that I won’t regret at the end of my life
I crazily run- I crazily live

Music heals me and erases my pain
It erases everything that’s not good and gives me strength
That is why I do music
I erase one by one and I find happiness

Avoiding human contact, nervous breakdowns, atopy-
Because of my worries about the bleak future of this rat race
I was busy letting out sighs
Ten years ago, love was a luxury
Time was money so I just washed up
I wrote lyrics all day and night
But after ten years, my belief filled my bank with a thousand million won
I was filled with determination to slander those who looked down on me
You ask me why I’m always tired everyday?
Because I live crazily- because my road is still far ahead

* repeat

The passed days are all behind
I head toward the days to come
There’s a lot of time for me to confidently walk on my two feet
Though I fight and fight, the painful times find me again
And they block my path again
Life is a continuum of fights
So each time, I take my poison gas
And with the bumping beat I go against it
With the life lessons and pains- I steal happiness

* repeat

In the swamp of life, in the swamp of life
I live crazily

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