GAI: 火锅底料 Hotpot Soup Packet

This version of Hotpot Soup Packet was released in July 2017. Arranger Liu Zhou, a prominent music producer in China, adds traditional Chinese instrument Suona into this version, enriching the traditional Chinese aesthetics of the song. The first line of the hook (“老子吃火锅你吃火锅底料”) is catchy for its vigorous momentum.

老子吃火锅 你吃火锅底料
对你笑呵呵 因为我讲礼貌
狠货有好多 个人拿去比较
包包头摸摸
这个月才几号

都不要闹
来跟到跳
一口咬下去油汤汤都跟到冒
都跟到冒
来比哈燥
脸高头笑
Gosh都悠然自得烟雾心头绕绕绕
都聪明惨咯嘛结果反被聪明误
老子的 verse 听完个人回切蹲到哭
南岸的弯多雾大级别低的清到路
师兄在哪个level
你我心头都有数
吃不完的火锅油扯起拿来撒
我范拿的太死才不止你说的讨打
那如果不信的话随时过来一哈
欢迎光临重庆飞机帮你造一架
Blablabla

老子吃火锅 你吃火锅底料
对你笑呵呵 因为我讲礼貌
狠货有好多 个人拿去比较
包包头摸摸
这个月才几号

脑壳有两个旋的人一般很混
我妈说钱找不完更要慢慢存
街上的人好多
有几个真的哥
脑壳头有屌歌
钱往老子包包头梭
都不要闹啊嘛
低级别的玩家
你不是铁树
你是属于昙花
我们是哪个
不用讲的太多
G A I来了
小鸡儿屎些快梭梭梭

老子吃火锅 你吃火锅底料
对你笑呵呵 因为我讲礼貌
狠货有好多 个人拿去比较
包包头摸摸
这个月才几号

那就一直往上
跟到起唱
嘞是雾都口号早就喊亮
开水来了
给老子让
看不到路哈我横冲直撞
低端档次最好不要靠近
遇到G A I你只有选择放弃
从来不跟假朋友讲撒子道义
我一登场所有人都立刻变成道具
Hold up
少睡点觉
多看点报
狐假虎威娃儿小打小闹
Flow 照抄
衣服和帽
Rapstar 都需要VPN号
把问题丢给你
个人切想
假装成功的都没得信仰
中国血液在我身上流淌
祝你有朝一日获得格莱美奖

老子吃火锅 你吃火锅底料
对你笑呵呵 因为我讲礼貌
狠货有好多 个人拿去比较
包包头摸摸
这个月才几号

老子吃火锅 你吃火锅底料
对你笑呵呵 因为我讲礼貌
狠货有好多 个人拿去比较
包包头摸摸
这个月才几号

English Version: (1)

I'm having hotpot while all you've got is the soup packet
Smiling at you only because I've got manners
I've got loads of cool tricks. Go ahead and compare yourself to me
But check your pocket, ask yourself what day it is first

Stop messing around
Come and dance
Upon biting I got hotpot soup swilling all in my mouth
Come on and see who's the hot one
Smile on the face
Gosh we are so chill our heads in the smoky fog
You think we're all so clever but that's where you're wrong this time
Y'all will go cry in the corner after I finish this verse
Taking swift turns on the south coast where it's so foggy you can just see the road
We both know which level you are at
We gonna throw it out with the leftover soup
You say I dress like I'm looking for fights but nono I'm just dead stylish
If you don't believe me come and try me anytime
Come to Chongqing and we'll build you a plane

I'm having hotpot while all you've got is the soup packet
Smiling at you only because I've got manners
I've got loads of cool tricks. Go ahead and compare yourself to me
But check your pocket, ask yourself what day it is first

They say people who got two hair swirls are destined to have their own way
My mama said I oughta save this easy money though
There're too many people on the street
But too few are a real boss
I've got sick songs in my head
The money will just flow flow flow into my pockets
Calm the fuck down
Low level players
Y'all are not gonna be here forever
You're so fleeting
Don't even need to state
Who we are
GAI is here
So you little shits oughta get the fuck
Out out out

I'm having hotpot while all you've got is the soup packet
Smiling at you only because I've got manners
I've got loads of cool tricks. Go ahead and compare yourself to me
But check your pocket, ask yourself what day it is first

Then let's go way up
Til you start singing
“We're the fog town” (2) and that's our catchphrase
The boiling water is here
Get out of the way
I can't really see the road I'm just gonna hog the way
Don't come n-ear me all you lowly beings
You'd have to give it up when you meet G-A-I
I've got no moral principles with you faker friends
When I show up everyone instantly becomes state props
Hold up
Sleep less
Read more
Y'all just a bunch of kids trying to play tough
You copy my flow
My clothes and my hat
As if all rapstars need a VPN account
I've told you all your problems have a think about yourself
As if all are you are pretending to be successful have no faith
The Chinese blood is running through my body
I hope you achieve a grammy one day

I'm having hotpot while all you've got is the soup packet
Smiling at you only because I've got manners
I've got loads of cool tricks. Go ahead and compare yourself to me
But check your pocket, ask yourself what day it is first

I'm having hotpot while all you've got is the soup packet
Smiling at you only because I've got manners
I've got loads of cool tricks. Go ahead and compare yourself to me
But check your pocket, ask yourself what day it is first
