Here’s 15+ Of Agust D’s Most Iconic Lyrics To Celebrate #5YearsWithAgustD

It’s been five years since we met BTS Suga‘s alter-ego Agust D with his first mixtape release, and its anniversary is a great excuse to revisit some of the most iconic lyrics from this genius songwriter and producer. Here are 15+ of the best lyrics from his songs…

1. “Agust D”

A to the G to the U to STD /
I’m D boy because I’m from D /
I’m the crazy guy, the lunatic on beat /
Sending listeners to Hong Kong with my rap /
My tongue technology.

— Agust D, “Agust D”

All ya fried rappers should be thankful I am an idol.

— Agust D, “Agust D”

2. “Give It To Me”

If you ask why I succeeded, there’s no one answer /
During that short time I slept less than you and moved more and grew /
Still it seems like even if I don’t know the secret to success, I know the secret to failure /
Playing like y’all do and fluttering around is the secret, I won’t live like that even if I die.

— Agust D, “Give It To Me”

I can’t live like a dog when I’m born to be a tiger.

— Agust D, “Give It To Me”

3. “724148”

They waste more money than my one month allowance on liquor /
And what? What? They pretend they got no money /
Shut the f*ck up, a**holes, shut your bloody mouth.

— Agust D, “724148”

I thought I should leave Daegu if I were to do music with more style uh /
Shaved head high schooler stands in front of the audition posters with brave foosteps.

— Agust D, “724148”

Practicing at night and part timing early morning /
Dragging my exhausted body to school /
I end up sleeping /
I turn 20 /
And the scene of our graduation hall is crap /
Those a**holes who gamble all night?
They’ve here in their foreign brand cars.

— Agust D, “724148”

Watch closely /
Leave your doubtful comments about whether I’d debut /
Watch me after a year, a**hole, look at what I’ll be doing /
You would see me on TV and decide to contact me.

— Agust D, “724148”

4. “140503 At Dawn”

I hide myself completely like I’ve become a criminal /
I can’t even take one step outside the dorm that’s like a prison.

— Agust D, “140503 At Dawn”

My trainee life was 100 out of 100 /
But sociophobia develops and my human relations is 0 /
I always prepare two masks /
Hiding my true self /
Behind the defensive image.

— Agust D, “140503 At Dawn”

Pretending not to be lonely, pretending not to be in pain /
Pointlessly pretending to be okay /
Pointlessly pretending to be strong /
Don’t climb over the wall I’ve built in front of me /
I’m the island in this vast ocean, don’t abandon me.

— Agust D, “140503 At Dawn”

5. The Last

It’s not that I couldn’t do ‘Show Me the Money,’ it’s that I said I wouldn’t, sh*t /
It’s not that you guys who betrayed us didn’t do it, it’s that you couldn’t, sh*t.

— Agust D, “The Last”

Min Yoongi is already dead (I killed him) /
Comparing my dead passion with others /
It’s now a part of my daily life.

— Agust D, “The Last”

On the other side of the famous idol rapper /
Stands my weak self, it’s a bit dangerous /
Depression, OCD /
They keep coming back again from time to time /
Hell no, perhaps that might be my true self.

— Agust D, “The Last”

I’ve exchanged my youth for success /
And that monster demands for more wealth /
At times it puts a collar on my neck /
To ruin and swallow me with greed /
Some try to shut my mouth and say /
I should swallow this forbidden fruit /
I don’t want it /
They want me to leave this garden.

— Agust D, “The Last”

6. Tony Montana (feat. Yankie)

I know, feel like ha Tony Montana /
Success and happiness look alike but they’re different /
But I want a bigger success /
More wealth and bigger honor /
I want the money to chase me but I hope /
I don’t become the monster chasing only money.

— Agust D, “Tony Montana”

7. “So Far Away” featuring SURAN

I know it seems pathetic to not have a dream like everyone /
‘Everything’s going to be alright if you go to university and do as we tell you’ /
I’m the a**hole for believing those words /
I’m living because I can’t die.

— Agust D, “So Far Away”

Dream, I will be there for your creation /
Until the end of your life /
Dream, wherever you might be /
It will be lenient /
Dream, you will fully bloom /
After all the hardships /
Dream, your beginnings will seem humble /
So prosperous will your future be.

— Agust D, “So Far Away”

That’s right, f*ck, I live because I can’t die /
But I don’t have anything I want to do /
I’m in so much pain and loneliness but people around me /
Keep telling me to regain my consciousness /
I try to vent my anger but I only got myself /
So what’s the point of venting my anger /
I’m scared to open my eyes everyday and start breathing.

— Agust D, “So Far Away”

8. “Moonlight”

The beginnings were humble, Daegu, yeah, from a basement in Namsandong /
To a penthouse in Hannam the Hill now, ha /
The Peter Pan who still cannot wake up from his dream /
In my head, the reality fights with the ideal tirelessly /
My biggest enemy is the anger inside me /
The more dreadful is the battle with the laziness inside me.

— Agust D, “Moonlight”

Changes are fated to happen to everyone /
Perhaps it is how we change that is our karma to bear

— Agust D, “Moonlight”

Sometimes I resent God, asking why he made me live a life like this /
What I’m doing, and if I love music at all /
Sometimes I ask myself again, ‘if it’s possible to go back, Will you go back?’ /
Well, I’ll have to think more about that.

— Agust D, “Moonlight”

Sometimes I feel like I’m a genius /
Sometimes I feel like I have no talent /
Sometimes songs write themselves like crazy, but then /
When I’m stuck, I’m stuck like there’s no way out, yeah, right now /
I wrote verse 1 f*cking fast /
But can’t make verse 2 no matter how hard I rack my brain /
It probably would be the same for life, all or nothing /
There’s no parallel anyway, it’s a matter of choice /
There would be no eternity for anything.

— Agust D, “Moonlight”

9. “Daechwita”

I’m so thankful, I’m a genius /
That’s your reason for using drugs, cry me a river, you just got no skills.

— Agust D, “Daechwita”

Born in a ditch but rise up a dragon /
That’s the way I live.

— Agust D, “Daechwita”

Born a slave but now a king.

— Agust D, “Daechwita”

Flexing, I got none, I don’t need one. Who’s the king, who’s the boss? You all know my name.

— Agust D, “Daechwita”

Revenues keep going up-up-up-up-up-up and up /
Everyday, Bang PD goes dance-dance-dance-dance-dance-dance-dance.

— Agust D, “Daechwita”

10. “What do you think?”

Crazy that you’d think that my success has a connection to your failure /
Your delusions are first-rate, f*ck you.

— Agust D, “What do you think?”

Woo woo, we’ll be sure to go to the military when it’s time, so /
All the b*stards who tried to sell our name to freeload off us, shut up.

— Agust D, “What do you think?”

The ten zeros in my bank account, that money is the collateral for my youth/
I got a big house big car big ring, bring anything over, I’ll give it to you, my black card.

— Agust D, “What do you think?”

11. “Strange” (feat. RM)

With dreams as its collateral, the capitalism injects the morphine called ‘hope.’

— Agust D, “Strange”

Polarization is the ugliest flower in the world.

— Agust D, “Strange”

The choices you’ve been given /
Are all preferences controlled by the capital /
People talk /
‘My feed explains me’ /
No matter how much money is in your grasp /
Everyone’s a slave to this system.

— Agust D, “Strange”

12. “28” (feat. NiiHWA)

I grow old, and learn about the world /
Even so, could it have been better if I knew nothing of the world.

— Agust D, “28”

I am breathing but seems like my heart is broken /
Yeah, now I’ve become an adult who finds it hard to grasp my dream /
And that’s growing up.

— Agust D, “28”

Thought I would change after I turn twenty /
Thought I would change after I graduate /
Sh*t, after I turn thirty like that /
Yeah, then what would change.

— Agust D, “28”

13. “Burn It” (feat. MAX)

Whether it’d become the blazing sun /
Or cinders that remain /
Anytime, the choice and decision is yours to make /
I hope you don’t forget that giving up decisively also counts as courage.

— Agust D, “Burn It”

Am I being pressured to passion?

— Agust D, “Burn It”

14. “People”

There is nothing that lasts forever in this world /
Everything is just a happening passing by.

— Agust D, “People”

Your ordinary became my special /
Your special became my ordinary.

— Agust D, “People”

I flow the way water flows.

— Agust D, “People”

15. “Honsool”

I thought when you became a superstar, you’d live life partying every day /
Expectation hits reality hard on the back.

— Agust D, “Honsool”

16. “Interlude: Set me free”

Set me free, yeah, even though I know it won’t turn out however I want to, hm /
Set me free, yeah, even though I know it is not what I want, oh no no no.

— Agust D, “Interlude: Set me free”

17. “Dear my friend” (feat. Kim Jong Wan of NELL)

There’s no way the you who were my only friend can return, and you became a monster /
The you I used to know is gone and the me you used to know is gone.

— Agust D, “Dear my friend”
