Seeing as you guys are generally not too keen on rap, I thought I'd just quickly post this. Outsider - 아웃사이 - is (unofficially) Korea's fastest rapper, and one of the fastest in the world. Not the fastest (yet) - he stands a pretty good chance, even though he doesn't rap in English. [The title's determined by syllables per second]
This is probably my favourite song of his.
It's Alone/Loner - depends on how you translate it - and this is it performed live. If you listen to the start, you can hear how fast Korean is normally spoken. Compare that to how fast he goes at about 2 minutes, and then you can see that he's going pretty damn fast.
On a really random note, there's some really random stuff on the stage. I... have no clue what's that about. o.O
Translation of the lyrics:
Spoiler:
Is there anyone to heal my wound?
If i leave it alone, it's going to continually get worse
I'm really scared of love and people
I'm afraid of being alone, I'm afraid of being forgotten
*repeated*
Always a loner, I close the door to my heart
Bearing my sadness on my back, I live like a fool
I close my eyes and cover my ears
I lock myself in the gloomy darkness
365 days, all year long, I wander
Jack Sparrow holds the rudder, chasing my spirit
The raging hurricane, tightening my belt
A rapper who forfeited his orientation and lost his way
I fight again with the other me who's hiding inside
When she left, she told me
'Even when you're next to me, it's like you're not there"
A blade-like love that brushes off when you touch it
It was a cold love where my heart froze over
Yeah, living for one minute, one second is not living
Everyday, I fear every day
M'aidez! Someone, pull me out!
Always a loner, I close the door to my heart
Bearing my sadness on my back, I live like a fool
I close my eyes and cover my ears
I lock myself in the gloomy darkness
*repeated*
When I faced our farewell that came without warning,
Afraid that I'd be alone again, I ignored it
The past times that I yearn for even in my dreams
Hoping for those times to return to me, with an earnest heart
I prayed every night
The arrow of memories that pulled the bowstring and left my hand
It flies endlessly towards the far target
I'm asking you to come back to me, to hold onto my hand
No matter how many times I call you, though I endlessly shout for you
There's no response from you
In my memories, no matter how much I struggle to erase your existence
Every night, in my dreams,
She appears, wiping away my falling tears
What should I do? Do I say that everything is ok?
Lie to myself? I can't take this anymore!
When it hurts, I hurt too. When it's sad, I'm sad too
My frozen heart keeps accusing me
Really, it's the end. Really, I'm okay.
The tears that I've held in keeps pouring down on me.
Is there anyone to heal my wound?
If I leave it alone, it's going to continually get worse.
I'm really scared of love and people
I'm afraid of being alone, I'm afraid of being forgotten
*repeated*
Always a loner, I close the door to my heart
Bearing my sadness on my back, I live like a fool
I close my eyes and cover my ears
I lock myself in the gloomy darkness
*repeated*
