E-Sens – Back In Time

It smells like grass when morning comes, my hometown
It takes an hour to get into the city from here
Summers are hot even at night and the girls are pretty
Yeah, I grew up in a good place to live
I don’t know for sure but I do remember Baby Phat
The clothes were pretty but now it’s an old trend
After two days of manual labor, I bought my first Air Ones
It was a fake pair but don’t step on my J’s
That’s how I walked around
I used to look like a pair of chopsticks
They ask if I’m that skinny kid who went to Seoul to do something
Yep I’m him
It’s always comfortable back there even after many things changed

A country guy from Kyungsan, I’ll make it more obvious, I won’t hide it
A kid with a shaved head, a kid who wiped his fake shoes with his spit
I’m a 90s kid, playing “Big Poppa” through the earphones
My older sister’s cassette was Kim Gun Mo

Back in time in my mind, take it back

The future I dreamed of when I was about 20
Was a man who could comfortably do music
I don’t like full schedules but I like good things
Every time I eat, two meals consist of talking about money
In my common sense, people all work and play
But after going through this myself, it’s just work work work
That isn’t my style, fuck looking for jobs
I’m doing music, I live with art, I’m an artist
In debt, jobless and a rookie at construction sites
But I always chased my dreams, as I angrily went back to my roots
As soon as I knew what that felt like, I quit
I shut up and did music, chewing your words when you said my omen wasn’t good
I just look ahead
My personality changed a bit after that
Thanks to that, I made a little money after six years
Back then, I thought that was huge

A country guy from Kyungsan, I’ll make it more obvious, I won’t hide it
A kid with a shaved head, a kid who wiped his fake shoes with his spit
I’m a 90s kid, playing “Big Poppa” through the earphones
My older sister’s cassette was Kim Gun Mo

Back in time in my mind, take it back

Cash Rules Everything Around Me
Dreams of fucking an R&B bitch
My story can’t be broadcast on EBS
I tried to catch a bus that I didn’t exactly know would come
I came out early, as I waited with impatient feet
It felt like it’d be so hard to get out of those times
It was like a short party and a long lesson
I’m nice with it, yeah. now let’s take it back.

back in time in my mind, take it back

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