Epik High - Excuses Lyrics






Education is killing my religion
Intuition is killing my religion
My religion is killing your religion
My religion, your religion
My religion, your religion

[MYK:]
Lungs blackened from this filth that I'm breathing
Polluted phrases are the kill of the season
My ears bleed and in turn I speak treasons
Weaving through a system that dubs realists as heathens
Like the cigarettes I'm 'chained' to, wicked words can be the devil in
Disguise that thrive off of maiming you
But who's blaming who?
Never are we the ones
We point the finger at the skies and the chosen 'son'

Who's to blame
No remedy to cure this pain
No remedy to cure this pain
Cause I believe there's nothing there for me

All my senses are killing my innocence
Cruel inventions are killing my innocence
No innocence is killing your innocence
My innocence, your innocence
My innocence, your innocence

[Tablo:]
Blame it on terror. Computer error
The east and west coast and the post-consumer era
The mayor, the president. The air, the elements
Whatever's relevant but never look in to your mirror
What you want, what you need is to be blameless
Don't blame the DJ, it's the playlist
Cause blame is a slutty word
Ex-planation, ex-ecution, ex-cuse share the same 'ex'

Who's to blame
No remedy to cure this pain
No remedy to cure this pain
Cause I believe there's nothing there for me

[Mithra:]
You don't wanna know the sinner
You don't wanna know the killer
You don't wanna know the sinner
You don't wanna know
Because it's you

Television is stalling evolution
Medication is stalling evolution
Evolution is stalling revolution
Evolution, revolution
Evolution, revolution

Collaboration, the start of revolution
My decision, the start of revolution
Revolution, the start of evolution
Revolution, evolution
Revolution, evolution

Who's to blame
No remedy to cure this pain
No remedy to cure this pain
Cause I believe there's nothing there for me

Who's to blame
No remedy to cure this pain
No remedy to cure this pain
Cause I believe there's nothing there for me

Because it's you, blame yourself

  18. A.... A....

    I came to know of Tablo because of the show Superman Returns. I got curious what he's like or specifically what his music is like, but the songs are mostly in Korean so hearing this one made me realize how talented he is. Good gracious the lyrics are superb. These are the songs that should be mainstream all over the globe.

    A.... A....

    you should check out Maze if you havent yet, and Over

  19. D.... D....

    looooove this song is  soo real icant find the right words to describe it #epic freaking EPIC

  20. T.... D....

    I miss EH ;-; I miss their english songs that I can sing along ;-; Like "Over" by Tablo ;-;

  21. M.... T....

    This song is soo perfect !! OMG EPIK HIGH IS AMAZING !! <3 

  22. B.... M....

    Seriously one of my favorite songs. I am glad that I was able to come back to these wonderful songs~ Sometimes you just need to stop and listen to some Epik High

  28. R.... A....

    I guess the wrong rappers had been poisoning my ears before because i generally though rap music was about those shallow things, I am so glad I met Epik High, their songs are deep unlike any other.

  29. y.... ....

    Rap IS Poetry...

  30. A.... ....

    Aren't you proud? Tablo and MYK both tweeted bout this :333

  31. R.... A....

    This isn't even rap It's like little meaningful lines from books placed into a song.

    R.... A....

    Rap can be meaningful too, any form of verbal music is technically a poem... Its just that nowadays "rappers" just rap about debauchery

    R.... A....

    @Mark Kim or just a bunch of nonsense that they cant even enunciate so mumble becomes an accepted form of expression.

  32. G.... V....

    This is hip hop.

  33. A.... V....

    This is beautiful, just. WOW

  34. N.... D....

    I. CAN'T. EVEN (~*.*)~ ~(*.*~)

  35. M.... ....

    "No remedy to cure this pain." Best part.

  36. j.... ....

    I swear, MYK is like the unofficial 4th member, I was hoping he would collab with E.H in their 99 album. Well, I hope next album they collab again

  37. A.... O....

    you have got to be the biggest idiot...

  38. K.... A....

    my new sleep song xD excuses! Tablo is very nice and MYK too^^ so epic :D

  39. k.... ....

    I thought its Mirotic by the intro XD
    this song is perfect

  40. J.... ....

    슬픈 현실은
    에픽하이의 음악을 들어보지도 않고 타진요를 믿고 설치는 찌질이 중고딩 들이 많다는것.
    허접들을 가지고 에픽하이와 비교하려는 녀석들이 많다는것.
    많은 사람들이 노래보다는 다른것을 보려는것.

    Tablo is so damn smart, this confuses me. I might have to read the lyrics a few times.

  44. S.... K....

    "my decision, start of revolution" -tablo-

  45. U.... ....

    Why does it matter at all what nationality Tablo is. He's a musician, that's all you need to be worried about, that's all you should be here for.

  46. S.... S....

    FUCK THIS SHIT, Tablo is Korean/Canadian, there ya go

  47. P.... J....

    hum... just saying but the benning of this song is the same as: Gorillaz- Tomorrow Comes Today o.O

  48. m.... ....

    Not giving a shit doesn't have much to do with fact. Nor does your preference of "blood" over "laws" ;)
    Tablo's is human. That's all that matters.

  49. s.... ....

    give a 2 cents about his crap of his nationality. all just shut up and enjoy the genius of his music.

  50. a.... ....

    Come at me, mudblood (?).

    Okay, no xD

  51. a.... ....

    His nationality is of no relevance, to begin with. But what? I'm just stating a fact.

    a.... ....

    병신..

  52. a.... ....

    Not in Korea, sir.

  53. L.... M....

    You sound like Draco Malfoy.

  54. L.... C....

    Canada allows double nationality.. so he may have both nationality

  55. H.... ....

    This song really hits home. That's what good rap does. That's what Epik High does.

  56. b.... ....

    blood shouldn't be of relevance. im sure tablo wants you to know that

  57. a.... ....

    This song is just.... That devides kpop bands before the big reknownment. People who can speak about more things than just 'love'. This is what makes me respect Epik High and Tablo. They actually are real artists, who have a point to make.

  58. f.... ....

    HAHA
    blame is a slutty word.
    because explanation, execution and excuse share the same "ex",

  59. x.... ....

    Yeah, well it kinda depends on their mood though >< but yeah that ''dissing'' and such they used to do is more of the past. They can totally manage without ^^

  60. J.... ....

    @angeluis23 Excuse me blood has really nothing to do with nationality nor laws.

  61. m.... ....

    i love MYK's singing voice!

  62. b.... t....

    My 2nd favourite group in kpop !

  63. K.... ....

    rap without the need of swearing or insulting people. Yes, that's Epik High.

  64. K.... ....

    "you don't want to know the killer. you don't want to know the sinner. because it's you." wow I love that part.

  65. A.... G....

    The lyrics are fucking brilliant

  66. M.... J....

    @maromabomarilo He is stlll Korean and can be seen welcome in Korea. However, you must also understand in Korean schools competition is everything (every 1 point can make a diferrence of 20th place and 35th place). Also, everyone who is a Korean citizen has to show up to 22 months of the army unless you win a Gold Medal at the Olympics or are considered special (such as missing a limb or mental retardation).

  67. C.... ....

    This is poetry, a melody, tranquility and pure awesome-ness

  68. m.... ....

    So fucking deep.
    So many favourite lines.
    Particularly like this one:
    'explanation,execution excuse share the same ex'

  69. T.... ....

    fucking ace rappers. all of them.

  70. J.... T....

    thumbs up if you went to the Map the Soul Tour back in '09 :D

  71. T.... ....

    Definitely one of the best rappers out there. No matter what their language of choice (Korean or English), these guys never disappoint.

  72. N.... L....

    FREAKING FREAKING FREAKING FREAKING FREAKING FREAKING LOVE THIS SONG

  73. t.... ....

    This song should really have more views. These guys are epic and this is pure poetry. Can't stop listening to this.

  74. Q.... ....

    @Bloodact

    Exactly. :|

  75. R.... V....

    @darthdaesik you can't have dual citizenship if you're korean. they make you give up your korean citizenship if you want canadian citizenship.

  76. b.... ....

    pretty epic... but come more with lyrics instead of lincoln park rhymes :(

    nice message.

    b.... ....

    which song are the rhymes from? i cant remember and its driving me crazy.

  77. p.... ....

    HOLYFUCK THIS IS AWESOME.

  78. M.... ....

    SHIIIT this is soooooooo sic kkKKK i love the part when they say Don't blame the DJ, it's the playlist.

  79. B.... V....

    MYK's voice is so soothing. Aahh, and it's true~ At the end of the day we have no one but ourselves to blame.

  80. e.... ....

    WHO GIVES A FUCK WHAT NATIONALITY HE IS. HE IS A VERY TALENTED ARTIST, CAN WE LEAVE IT AT THAT?

  81. E.... E....

    I listen this song over and over again and I can not stop

  82. P.... ....

    @JShawtyKim "singer" LOL

  83. a.... ....

    But he's pure Korean by blood. I don't give a shit about "laws".

  84. a.... ....

    Huh? Tablo is pure Korean, but he used to live in Canada and then graduated university in Stanford, USA.

  85. a.... ....

    it is because tablo is from america

  86. g.... ....

  89. a.... ....

  92. V.... ....

    Loving it!!!
