ZICO (Block B) - Well Done (Feat. Ja Mezz) lyrics + translation

꿈만 죽어라고 쫓았어
kkumman jugeorago jjochasseo
결승선은 만족을 못해서 보이지 않아
gyeolseungseoneun manjogeul motaeseo boiji anha
its the hard knock life 느긋함보단 아직
its the hard knock life neugeutambodan ajik
빡세게 사는 편이 더 마음 편한 타입 huh
ppaksege saneun pyeoni deo maeum pyeonhan taip huh
하나둘씩 내 캐릭터 모방하는 제작자
hanadulssik nae kaerikteo mobanghaneun jejakja
but ZICO는 연습이 아닌 경험으로 자라났다
but ZICOneun yeonseubi anin gyeongheomeuro jaranatda
4년간 우여곡절 구설수와 가정사
4nyeongan uyeogokjeol guseolsuwa gajeongsa
숨 쉬는 것 마저 담배 피는 느낌 뭔지 알아
sum swineun geot majeo dambae pineun neukkim mwonji ara
Get over it and move on 눈 부릅떠 다 극복했어
Get over it and move on nun bureuptteo da geukbokhaesseo
가족을 품고 친구들 이끌어주려고
gajogeul pumgo chingudeul ikkeureojuryeogo
I've got the swank of no other man
내 소비는 사치보단 보상에 가깝지
nae sobineun sachibodan bosange gakkapji
글자도 가까이서 보면 흐릿해 보이듯이
geuljado gakkaiseo bomyeon heuritae boideusi
우린 자신이 처한 곤경은 모르지
urin jasini cheohan gongyeongeun moreuji
버튼이면 뭐든지 다 해결되는 도심에서
beoteunimyeon mwodeunji da haegyeoldoeneun dosimeseo
내 힘으로 결실을 맺어 well done
nae himeuro gyeolsireul maejeo well done

I’m doing it right
이 정도면 훌륭해
i jeongdomyeon hullyunghae
Only the Strong Survive
부끄럼 없어 임마
bukkeureom eobseo imma
난 덜 익었지만 난 덜 익었지만
nan deol igeotjiman nan deol igeotjiman
Uh uh I make my mama proud
난 덜 익었지만 난 덜 익었지만
nan deol igeotjiman nan deol igeotjiman
go ahead you can't ignore it now

2008년 이효리의 U-Go-Girl이
2008nyeon ihyoriui U-Go-Girli
히트칠 때 시작된 김성희의 홀로서기
hiteuchil ttae sijakdoen gimseonghuiui holloseogi
청소기, 설거지, 용돈 벌기, 무엇 하나
cheongsogi, seolgeoji, yongdon beolgi, mueot hana
익숙지 않은 채로 떨어진 여기 서울 살아
iksukji anheun chaero tteoreojin yeogi seoul sara
남기 project, 여전히 전쟁터, fight without knife
namgi project, yeojeonhi jeonjaengteo, fight without knife
그 사이 터득했던 방법 1 dynamic mic
geu sai teodeukhaetdeon bangbeop 1 dynamic mic
잡생각들 이 많아지는 건 깔깔이 입어 봤던
japsaenggakdeul i manhajineun geon kkalkkari ibeo bwatdeon
내 친구들은 잘 알어 It's the hard knock life
nae chingudeureun jal areo It's the hard knock life
and time flies, 니 아빠 차 보다 빨리
and time flies, ni appa cha boda ppalli
내가 물려받은 건 차키 아닌 키 180
naega mullyeobadeun geon chaki anin ki 180
시력 1.5 남들보다 뛰어난 관찰력
siryeok 1.5 namdeulboda ttwieonan gwanchallyeok
틀이 없는 표현 방식, 어린왕자의 상자 속
teuri eomneun pyohyeon bangsik, eorinwangjaui sangja sok
안에 뭐가 있게? money fame n bitches
ane mwoga itge? money fame n bitches
나도 알고 싶기에, 지금 현재 위치
nado algo sipgie, jigeum hyeonjae wichi
까지 달려왔어, polo on, come through the door,
kkaji dallyeowasseo, polo on, come through the door,
개선장군, 동대문 통과할 때 승전보
gaeseonjanggun, dongdaemun tonggwahal ttae seungjeonbo
울려줘, drumroll 박수갈채
ullyeojwo, drumroll baksugalchae
난 backstage 대기실에서 거울을 보며 말해
nan backstage daegisireseo geoureul bomyeo malhae
이 모든게 꿈이 아냐, 앞으로도 계속
i modeunge kkumi anya, apeurodo gyesok
앞으로 갈 거지만 일단 수고했어, well done
apeuro gal geojiman ildan sugohaesseo, well done

I’m doing it right
이 정도면 훌륭해
i jeongdomyeon hullyunghae
Only the Strong Survive
부끄럼 없어 임마
bukkeureom eobseo imma
난 덜 익었지만 난 덜 익었지만
nan deol igeotjiman nan deol igeotjiman
Uh uh I make my mama proud
난 덜 익었지만 난 덜 익었지만
nan deol igeotjiman nan deol igeotjiman
go ahead you can't ignore it now

정산 받은 날도 돈보다 먼저 곡을 써
jeongsan badeun naldo donboda meonjeo gogeul sseo
서초에 가 poptime stay tuned 의 속을 썩여
seochoe ga poptime stay tuned ui sogeul sseogyeo
성공은 기뻐할 틈 없이 사명감을 줘
seonggongeun gippeohal teum eobsi samyeonggameul jwo
요란했던 빈 수레들은 공수래공수거
yoranhaetdeon bin suredeureun gongsuraegongsugeo
be positive 오스틴이 써낸 긍정의 힘
be positive oseutini sseonaen geungjeongui him
받침이 잘못됐어 사실 금전의 힘
batchimi jalmotdwaesseo sasil geumjeonui him
힘의 논리를 일찍 배워 기계처럼 사는 꼴이
himui nollireul iljjik baewo gigyecheoreom saneun kkori
전혀 인간답지 못해 자꾸 인성얘기 꺼내는 거야?
jeonhyeo ingandapji motae jakku inseongyaegi kkeonaeneun geoya?
난 집안 빚다 청산하고 일산에
nan jiban bitda cheongsanhago ilsane
할머니 모실 집 봐, 삼촌은 갔지만
halmeoni mosil jip bwa, samchoneun gatjiman
'god save Paulus' 엄마의 초상화
'god save Paulus' eommaui chosanghwa
on my chest 날 제대로 보려면 put the cameras down
on my chest nal jedaero boryeomyeon put the cameras down
난 말이 씨가 되게 해 누굴! 나무라기 전에
nan mari ssiga doege hae nugul! namuragi jeone
유명한 부자는 못 되도 이루려고 노력해
yumyeonghan bujaneun mot doedo iruryeogo noryeokhae
열정도 지나치면 해가 된다는 말
yeoljeongdo jinachimyeon haega doendaneun mal
That’s right 난 널 땀나게 하고 부채질 받아
That’s right nan neol ttamnage hago buchaejil bada

I’m doing it right
이 정도면 훌륭해
i jeongdomyeon hullyunghae
Only the Strong Survive
부끄럼 없어 임마
bukkeureom eobseo imma
난 덜 익었지만 난 덜 익었지만
nan deol igeotjiman nan deol igeotjiman
Uh uh I make my mama proud
난 덜 익었지만 난 덜 익었지만
nan deol igeotjiman nan deol igeotjiman
go ahead you can't ignore it now

TRANSLATION

I only chased after my dreams so hard
I can’t see the finish line because I couldn’t be satisfied
It’s the hard knock life, I’m the type to be more comfortable
With working hard rather than taking things slow
One by one, producers are starting to imitate my character
But ZICO grew not with practice but with experience
For four years, there were all sorts of criticisms and family matters
Breathing felt like smoking a cigarette, you know what I mean?
Get over it and move on, I opened my eyes wide and overcame it all
I embraced my family, pulled through for friends
I’ve got the swank of no other man
What I spend isn’t on luxury but on compensation
Just like letters getting blurry when read up too close
We don’t know our own troubles
Living in an urban city where pressing a button solves everything
I’ll make my own ending with my own strength, well done

I’m doing it right
This is pretty good
Only the strong survive
I’m not embarrassed about anything dude
I’m not well done, I’m not well done but
Uh uh I make my mama proud
I’m not well done, I’m not well done but
Go ahead you can’t ignore it now

When Lee Hyori’s U-Go-Girl became a hit in 2008
Kim Sung Hee’s independence was just starting
Vaccuuming, doing the dishes, making money
I wasn’t used to any of that but I came here, to live in Seoul
Survival project, it’s still a battlefield, fight without knife
One method I learned is 1 dynamic mic
Having a lot of miscellaneous thoughts
My friends who have worn a lot of uniforms know, it’s the hard knock life
And time flies, faster than your dad’s car
What I inherited wasn’t a car key but my height of 180cm
My vision is 1.5 better than others, great observation skills
My way of expressing things has no boundaries
What’s inside the Little Prince’s box? Money, fame and bitches
I want to know so that’s why I’ve came this far
Polo on, come through the door
When the victorious general has his victory walk through Dongdaemun
Let the drum roll and people applaud
I look in the mirror backstage and tell myself
This isn’t all a dream, I’m gonna keep moving forward but for now, good job, well done

I’m doing it right
This is pretty good
Only the strong survive
I’m not embarrassed about anything dude
I’m not well done, I’m not well done but
Uh uh I make my mama proud
I’m not well done, I’m not well done but
Go ahead you can’t ignore it now

Even on payday, I write songs before I spend money
Go to Seocho, pop time, stay tuned, I upset them
Success gives me a mission without time to be happy
All of the noisy and empty wagons come empty and leave empty
Be positive, like Osteen’s “Your Best Life Now”
But that’s not right, it’s about the power of money
I learned about the logic behind power early on
So I live like a machine and I don’t act like a human
Why keep talking about character?
I took care of all my family’s debts
Now I’m looking for a house for my grandma in Ilsan
Though my uncle has passed, “God Save Paulus”
My mom’s portrait on my chest
If you wanna see the real me, put the cameras down
I make words come to life, before you call anyone a tree
Even if I can’t be a famous rich man, I’ll try hard to make it happen
They say too much passion can be harmful
That’s right, I’ll make you sweat and have people fan me

I’m doing it right
This is pretty good
Only the strong survive
I’m not embarrassed about anything dude
I’m not well done, I’m not well done but
Uh uh I make my mama proud
I’m not well done, I’m not well done but
Go ahead you can’t ignore it now
