RM - 농담 (Joke) (English Translation) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The rhythm resonates my eardrums
Bass and drum, the fuel that moves me
Everything that exists here, happiness until your new God, everything, I'ma fucking get 'em
I’m Elastine, you're dandruff
Idiot rappers, your standard is so-so
Fame, girls, money, that’s my honey to the hundred to the hundred
Who will stop me? I'ma fuckin' beat 'em
Haters like leeches, kill me, tie me up, silence me
I’m so super, I just grew up
Beggar-like mothersuckers, motherfuckers, all of them decay
Make them break their hands and feet
Make them do a circus, make them do chin-ups, fuck up
With one mouth, you say two different things, girls see you and call you "Unnie"
You lay down steel so easily, in your songs, you're Lee Ken Hee
Girl are swarming like flies, no, I can see your reality clearly
The few hip-hop fangirls at Hongdae variety shows are your regulars
I open and close the door here
The rap pain that you say you feel everyday
In an instant, I conquer the beat
When the beat sees you, it says, "Beat him"
You must feel envious of my pay
Sweden, Germany, Brazil to Japan
My pen is stronger than your tongue
Now we get to call, my hand's even better than 5 Kwang
[Verse 2]
Got six bullets in my tongue (Huh!)
Six snakes in my lung (Huh!)
Six shots got me feeling 2Pac, yeah, these are A$AP’s lyrics (Huh!)
There's nothing to it like a happily married couple
You don't need to stand like a heavenly woman
I tap, tap the duster, scrub, scrub, sweep off, like water my tongue is washing dishes
Yeah, this is meaningless wordplay, you know I got a motherfuckin' beat
Got a motherfuckin' rhyme
Got a motherfuckin' flow, got a motherfuckin' style
Got a motherfuckin' wine, gotta motherfuckin' shine

How many bars are there? My motherfuckin' lines
Bitch I’m the one, I’m so motherfuckin' prime
You're fucking provincial, a village mayor or a pig-feet-loving old man style
Bitch, I’m your man, 10 outta 10, heart is black, a summer’s suntan
Start the battle plan, yeah, my name's a brand
I do it all myself, my name's a band
This is my amusement park, I pull the lever
There’s a difference from the roots between your and my level
First name is Greatest, last name Ever
I'll never change my name, never ever ever

Yeah, idiot, you're the clown, not the powerful, the food, not the top
Fake, not the true answer, if you watch porn, you cum in three seconds
I’m the top of the top, power of the powerful, answer of the answers, sunbaes and hoobaes all turn around
Just play with your dick, it'll feel good, yeah, you’re my enemy so fuck off
Day or night, fucking industries, you’re a bastard who can’t even rap more than three characters
Bibidi babidi bubidi babidi, nimini namini jikimi jakami
Hold on to your own, pig out to pollack
Your name is Mimi? Shawty? No answer
[Verse 3]
My rap is completely insane, your rap, I'll just say one thing: Don't rap
My rap played in the larger waters
Your "rap" is really not rap, non-rap
Yeah, you’re the best woman, abuse of power
So fucking good at it, abusing power
Ah but think about it, you were never really powerful
Let’s take off “power” and call you “dear”, gonorrhea
I pop it, rock it, knock it, never stop it, talkin' some trashes
I have no mercy like I'm unemployed, you're really unemployed, no money for the bus
You know I ain’t about the thousands
Let me ride it, yo, drop it, swap it, rock it, mock it, stalk it, lock it
In my pocket, there's full of monsters
Yeah, I gettin' on em bitch, gettin' on 'em rich
Son of the seaside, you’re a son of a beach
I shine like a diamond in the rough, like a son of Jadeite
I’m a monster, son of a Stitch
Yeah, man, I told you that I’m a monster

That why I be rappin' non-stop
I do want your hands at the concert
Want your fuckin' damn hands at the concert

Genius Annotation

RM did this song as a ‘joke’ hence the title of the track.
RM at this time was heavily criticized for been in a a k-pop group and that he couldn’t maintain an actual flow. Well in this RM gives good flows/rhythm through out the track in which also get faster as the rap comes to an end.
He also mocks other rappers that looked down on him.
He even brags about how writing the lyrics took him just a short time and that it is easy for him to do so.

“Joke” is a song whose lyrics were written with a stream of consciousness. That’s why the title is called “Joke” as well. There’s nothing hidden behind the lyrics. It’s 500% for the auditory pleasure of rap songs. Since the other songs have messages or emotions placed into them, I felt that it was necessary to add in a refreshing song without any thoughts. I put in a lot of what I believe are rap “skills.”

What's the reason in choosing Run The Jewels as the beat for "Joke"?

Genius Answer

I normally enjoy Run The Jewels. There were a few songs I had recorded on the beat for Run The Jewels among the songs that weren’t placed on the mixtape. I believe that they make beats really well where the El-P is minimal, but is able to emphasize the auditory effect of raps. There were five song nominees to be used for “Joke,” but all five songs were Run The Jewels' beats. I normally thought that if a chance came to me where I could show off my skills, that I would use Run The Jewels' beats no matter what.
