What do you think? by Agust D Lyrics Meaning – Unpacking the Defiant Anthem of Self-Assuredness
Lyrics
어떻게 생각해? 어떻게 생각해?
어떻게 생각해? 어떻게 생각해?
어떻게 생각해?
어떻게 생각하던지 난 미안한데 시발 좆도 관심 없네
미안 좆도 관심 없네 니 인생이 어중간한 것도
니가 망해서 똥통을 벗어나지도 못하는 것도 (것도)
내 성공이 니 실패와 연관이 있다고 생각하다니
착각이 수준급이군 좆도 (좆도)
개그감들이 so-so, 니가 좆된 것은 니 탓이지 no-no?
이 노랠 듣는 좆 들은 뭐 개빡쳐서 졸도
빠꾸없이 또 직진, 난 전 세계 so fly huh
굳이 하지 않아 난 flexing but, 전세기 so fly
다 해 먹어 하나씩 ey, 우리가 여태 하듯이
밥풀이 붙었던 것 정돈 신경 안 쓰니
알아서 떨어졌던 것처럼 다 싸그리 go fuck yourself huh
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
빌보드 1위, oh no, 어떻게 생각해? (Yeah, yeah)
그 다음은 그래미 (그래미), 어떻게 생각해? (Yeah, yeah)
어떻게 생각하던지 난 미안한데 시발 좆도 관심 없네 (관심 없네)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각하든지 난 미안한데 시발 좆도 관심 없네 (uh)
내 통장에 0 열 개 들은 청춘을 담보로 한 돈
I got a big house, big cars, big ring
뭐든지 가져와봐 줄게 내 black card
미디어의 혜택을 받은 새끼들은 나보다 방송을 많이 타고
돈 자랑하는 애새끼들 벌어봤자 얼마나 벌었겠냐 싶어
Woo woo 그래 이제 돈 자랑들은 뭐 귀엽지 (귀엽지)
Woo woo 분배는 니 급 쯤에서나 아깝지 (아깝지)
Woo woo 군대는 때 되면 알아서들 갈 테니까
우리 이름 팔아먹으면서 숟가락을 얹으려고 한 새끼들 싸그리 다 닥치길 (ah)
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
이쯤 되면은 알 필요 없지 (없지)
아이돌음악이 음악이냐는 말들에는 좆도 관심이 없지 (없지)
마지막 선물이 되겠지만 이것 또한 너희들에게는 사치 (사치)
높게 높게 더 높게 쳐다도 못볼만치 uh
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
빌보드 1위, oh no, 어떻게 생각해? (Yeah, yeah)
그 다음은 그래미 (그래미), 어떻게 생각해? (Yeah, yeah)
어떻게 생각하던지 난 미안한데 시발 좆도 관심 없네 (관심 없네)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각해? (어떻게 생각해?)
어떻게 생각하든지 난 미안한데 시발 좆도 관심 없네 (uh)
When Agust D (BTS’s Suga) drops a track, the music industry listens – and not just for the beat. What lies beneath the surface of his aggressively rhythmic and brash delivery is a narrative so raw and provocative that it vaults beyond mere artistry into the realm of philosophical proclamations. ‘What do you think?’ is a perfect exemplar, radiating with the complexities and confrontational attitude that fans and critics alike have come to expect from the South Korean rapper.
This latest release is more than a song – it’s a statement, a personal manifesto against the confines of society’s expectations and external judgment. But to truly appreciate its artful defiance, one must peel back the layers of its biting lyrics. Brace yourself as we delve deeper into the intense world of ‘What do you think?’ and dissect the intrinsic sentiments that propel Agust D’s unapologetic bravado.
The Rebellious Echo: Agust D’s Battle Cry Against Conformity
From the outset, ‘What do you think?’ thrums with a spirit of rebellion. The repeated titular question is not a genuine inquiry but rather a rhetorical sneer, the anthem of one uninterested in the opinions of critics and doubters. Agust D challenges the status quo and societal norms through his music, wielding his lyrical prowess as both a weapon and a shield. The track is a microcosm of the struggle many artists face – contending with the court of public opinion while endeavoring to remain true to their creative vision.
Through his repeated disinterest (‘I’m sorry, but I fucking care about none’), Agust D lays bare the relentless pressure and scrutiny public figures endure. Whether it’s expectation or criticism, he opines on the futility of measuring his worth through the gaze of others. This is Agust D professing a mantra of self-reliance – his success and failure belong to him, untethered by the projections of onlookers.
Deciphering ‘What do you think?’ – The Hidden Meanings Within
Within the vitriol and apparent disinterest in public perspective lies the deeper significance of ‘What do you think?’. The track articulates the internal conflict of modern success – an individual’s achievements are so often intertwined with public perception that it becomes hard to separate the two. Agust D’s lyrics suggest that his accomplishments are clouded by those who seek to attribute their failures to his successes, an implication he swiftly rebukes with visceral contempt (‘Thinking my success is related to your failure, that’s a fucking delusional level’).
The stark candor of the lyrics serves as a potent reminder of the toxicity of comparison culture, where one’s value is frequently determined relative to another’s achievements. By asserting that he has no interest in such a warped value system, Agust D is rebelling against a society that often undervalues the individual journey in favor of superficial metrics.
A Tapestry of Triumphs: Celebrating Success Amidst the Noise
Navigating through the sharp edges of ‘What do you think?’, we’re introduced to a tapestry of triumphs amidst the chaos of criticism. Achievements like ‘Billboard number one, oh no’ and the subsequent nod to Grammy ambitions are served with a side of irony, highlighting the paradox that even when reaching what some consider the pinnacle of success, there is still a clamoring of voices waiting to undermine and belittle these accomplishments.
Regardless, Agust D revels in the fruits of his labor, from financial security to his hard-earned luxuries (‘I got a big house, big cars, big rings’). Yet, even as he acknowledges his success, the focus remains steadfast on his art rather than the material rewards it has reaped, a subtle reminder that for Agust D, the work itself remains the true prize.
The Fickle Feast: Media, Money, and the Artistic Mind
Agust D offers an incisive critique of the media landscape and the intersection of fame and fortune in ‘What do you think?’. Lines like ‘Media’s darlings get more broadcast than me, kids bragging about money, how much would they have made?’ underscore his contempt for those who utilize media influence for superficial gains. It’s a jab at opportunists who leverage his name for clout and those in the industry who flaunt wealth as a marker of success.
Herein lies a dual indictment – against media outlets that perpetrate shallow narratives of success, and against artists who embrace this narrative, substituting monetary gain for artistic integrity. Agust D deftly exposes the shallowness of such an approach, implicitly advocating for the value of sincerity and dedication to one’s craft over the desire for public validation.
Memorable Lines Fueling the Fire of Agust D’s Message
The song is replete with lines dripping with memorable ferocity, each serving to hammer home Agust D’s message of self-assuredness and disregard for unsolicited opinions. For instance, ‘Woo, woo, the army will roll in when the time comes,’ alludes to his mandatory military service as a non-issue, a dig at those who try to capitalize on this aspect of South Korean culture to detract from his career.
But perhaps the most potent line of all is the conclusory dismissal, ‘I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, at this point, there’s no need to know.’ It stands as a final nail in the coffin for the critiques and expectations placed upon Agust D, a closing statement to a manifesto of indifference that liberates him from the chains of societal validation. The leaden repetition becomes a chant of liberation, echoing the sentiments of anyone who has ever wished to live free from the weight of others’ judgments.
