Lyrics: EPIK HIGH - Lesson Zero

[Hangul]
에픽하이 - Lesson Zero

Things can change
변할 수 있다
In the pouring rain
쏟아지는 빗속에서
From the shadows
그림자들을 뚫고
See it towering
높이 치솟는 것을 봐라
Half the light
빛의 반쪽이
Can fade away
점차 꺼진다
Face your shadow
너의 그림자를 마주하라
Then you follow it
그리고 따라가라
You follow it
따라가라
You follow it
따라가라
Half the light
빛의 반쪽이
Can fade away
점차 꺼진다
Face your shadow
너의 그림자를 마주하라
Then you follow it
그리고 따라가라

They teach you to heed the word of a god
who has never spoken
그들은 너에게 말 한마디 하지 않은
신의 목소리를 경청하라고 가르친다
To fear breaking the law
when it's already broken
이미 일그러진 법을 어기길 두려워하라고
That to feel is to be weak,
to suppress emotion
느낀다는 것은 약하다는 것이라고
감정을 숨기라고
So no one sees you had a heart
till your chest is open
너에게도 심장이 있었다는 걸 아무도 못 보게
너의 가슴이 열려있을 때까진
They got you hating who you are,
to sell you pills and fiction
네가 너 자신을 증오하기를 원한다
너에게 알약과 허구를 팔기 위해
Reachin' for the stars
when you were born up there with 'em
별을 따기 위해 손을 뻗게 한다
넌 그 별들 사이에서 태어난 건데
Addicted to the news, views, superstitions
뉴스, 여론, 미신에 중독되어
To keep the visionaries
glued to their televisions
비전을 가진 자들이
텔레비전 앞을 떠나지 못하게
They want you busy stepping
to the right side of history
역사의 옳은 쪽에 서려고 애쓰기를 바란다
To keep you from the inside of history
역사의 안쪽에 설까 봐
Give everyone a voice
모두에게 목소리를 주면서
But leash 'em wit the mic cord
마이크 선으로 목줄을 맨다
Feed you things to fight about
서로 싸울 일을 먹여준다
Instead of things to fight for
함께 싸울 일 대신
Teach you everything you want
너가 원하는 모든 것을 가르쳐준다
But nothing you need
너가 필요한 것 대신
That everything's got a price
모든 것은 가격이 있다고
And nothing is free
공짜는 없다고
They'll turn everything to nothing
그들은 모든 것이 아무것도 아니게 되게 한다
Then make you believe
그리고 믿게 한다
That everything is under control
다 통제하에 있다고
And there's nothing to see
여기 볼 것 없다고
No more lessons please
더 이상의 가르침은 그만
Take me back to zero
날 영으로 되돌려줘
No more teachers, no more prophets,
no more heroes
더 이상의 스승, 더 이상의 선지자,
더 이상의 영웅은 그만
No more lessons please
더이상의 가르침은 그만
Now I see, the question to all answers
이제 보여, 모든 답을 향한 내 질문은
Will only bring me to my knees
나를 무릎 꿇게만 할 것이고
And back to zero
나를 0으로 되돌리기만 할 것을

EPIK HIGH - Lesson Zero

Things can change
Can change
In the pouring rain
In the pouring rain
From the shadows
Through the shadows
See it towering
Watch it soar high
Half the light
Half of the light
Can fade away
Gradually turns off
Face your shadow
Face your shadow
Then you follow it
And follow
You follow it
Follow
You follow it
Follow
Half the light
Half of the light
Can fade away
Gradually turns off
Face your shadow
Face your shadow
Then you follow it
And follow

They teach you to heed the word of a god
who has never spoken
They didn't say a word to you
Teach them to listen to the voice of God
To fear breaking the law
when it's already broken
To be afraid to break the already distorted law
That to feel is to be weak,
to suppress emotion
To feel is to be weak
To hide your emotions
So no one sees you had a heart
till your chest is open
Nobody sees that you had a heart too
Until your heart is open
They got you hating who you are,
to sell you pills and fiction
I want you to hate yourself
To sell you pills and fiction
Reachin' for the stars
when you were born up there with'em
Let them reach out to pick the stars
You were born among the stars
Addicted to the news, views, superstitions
Addicted to news, public opinion and superstition
To keep the visionaries
glued to their televisions
Those with vision
So I can’t leave in front of the television
They want you busy stepping
to the right side of history
I hope you try to stand on the right side of history
To keep you from the inside of history
In case of being in the back of history
Give everyone a voice
Giving everyone a voice
But leash'em wit the mic cord
Lanyard with microphone wire
Feed you things to fight about
Feeding each other fight
Instead of things to fight for
Instead of fighting together
Teach you everything you want
Teach you everything you want
But nothing you need
Instead of what you need
That everything's got a price
Everything has a price
And nothing is free
There is no free
They'll turn everything to nothing
They make everything become nothing
Then make you believe
And make you believe
That everything is under control
All under control
And there's nothing to see
I have nothing to see here
No more lessons please
Stop teaching any more
Take me back to zero
Return me to spirit
No more teachers, no more prophets,
no more heroes
No more teacher, no more prophet,
No more heroes
No more lessons please
Stop teaching any more
Now I see, the question to all answers
Now I see, my question for all answers
Will only bring me to my knees
Will only make me kneel
And back to zero
To just bring me back to zero
