니가 무엇을 하든 I will kill for
Whatever you do, I will kill for

내가 무엇을 하든 I’ll be real for
Whatever I do, I’ll be real for

똑바로 봐 이게 바로 니가 바 바란 beast mode
Look carefully, this exactly is the beast mode you wanted 

남자는 담배, 여자는 바람 필 때
When men smoke cigarettes, and women cheat*

I smoke beat this a beat smoke
1) To have an affair or to cheat in Korean is 바람피우다 (barampiwooda). To smoke cigarettes is 담배를 (담배(dambae; cigarette)+를(reul; object particle)) 피우다 (piwooda; to smoke). RM separated 바람피우다 into two parts, 바람 (baram; wind) and 피우다, so that it shares “피우다” with smoking cigarettes. This line also rhymes with the next English line. “When men smoke cigarettes, and women smoke wind (=cheat), I smoke beat. This is a beat smoke.”
2) This line became controversial because of how it depicts women. There were opinions that the line makes it seem equally likely for men to smoke and women to cheat. In 2017, RM changed the lyrics to “누구는 담배, 누구는 바람필 때,” meaning “when some smoke, and some other cheat.”

Oh 쉿 거꾸로 돌려봐 beat
Oh, shush, play it backward, beat
Notice how 쉿 (shush) is pronounced “shit”

넌 하수구 난 구수하지 [neon hasugu nan gusuhaji]
You’re a sewer, and I’m savory
Wordplay: 하수구 means sewer but, broken into 하수 and 구 with 구 being a misspell of 고, it can also mean a person who lacks skills or someone who is a puppet. Hence the line can also be interpreted as “You’re a bad player, and I’m savory (pleasant to hear).”

실력이 파업중인 애들이
The kids whose abilities are on strike

내 뒤에서 시위는 겁나 하지
put on a protest so hard behind my back 

Man what you afraid of 난 비트 위에서 당당해
Man what you afraid of, I’m not afraid of anything on the beat

넌 거진 다 주머니와 없는 실력까지 가난해
All your pockets are empty, and even your barely-existing abilities are poor
(Or, “you’re a beggar, all your pockets are empty, and even your barely-existing abilities are poor)

I don’t need HUGO, already a boss

난 아냐 부처, but im a butcher 니 살을 깎아버려 like a

난 로밍 요금만 몇십 돈
Just my roaming charges are hundreds of dollars

And you know I can take it more

돈 벌어라 돌로, 팔어 돌이나 돌팔이들
Make money with your sloppy skills, just sell your clumsy skills, you quacks
돌팔이 (dolpari; a quack) originates from 돌다 (to roam, to circle around) and 팔다 (to sell), which used to mean a roaming merchant when combined. Nowadays 돌팔이 is used to describe someone who is not qualified to do something yet claims the opposite. Since 돌 (dol) itself means a stone/rock, the Korean lyrics literally go: “Make money with a stone, just sell your stones, you quacks.”

On the seats you guys will never be able to reach, I sit

Hater들은 많지
There are many haters

But no problem, I kill

날 묻기 위해 내 커리어에다 파대는 삽질
Shoveling my career to bury me
Wordplay: 삽질 (sapjil; shoveling) is a widely used slang to describe some action that is pointless. Those the haters attack my career to bury me, they’re actually just wasting their time.

But I don’t care

You can’t control my shit

비례적인 위치 날 욕하기엔 Busy
Our positions are proportional, you should be too busy to slander me 

But 난 입질 왔담 삐끼 (bbikki)
But I felt a bite, bait
삐끼 (bbikki) is a slang for a night club barker. The use of 삐끼 instead of 미끼 (mikki; bait) allows 입질 왔다 (the fish bit the bait) to have another meaning, which is to feel the good chance coming.

모든 언니s call me 삐삐 (bbibbi)
All the girls call mebeeper
Original Korean lyrics use 언니 (unnie), which is used by females to call/address an older female. It is, however, common that night club barkers (even if they are males) call female customers unnies. The use of unnie thus makes sense here. 삐삐 (bbibbi) is a pager/beeper, so it could be (1) “all the girls, call me, page me.” Or, since bbi- is commonly used as an onomatopoeia of censoring sounds, it could also be (2) “all the girls call me ‘XX’,” where XX is some unknown word.

어설픈 영어 지껄이는 랩 만식이들 (mansigideul) 다 봐라

만식이 (mansigi) is an old slang that has been used in clothing markets by shop owners. Customers who know nothing of the ways of the market (prices, how to negotiate, etc.) and are therefore extremely gullible are called 만식이.
