lyrics

I opened up my eyes early in the morning,
had a bad dream so i forget to yawn and its like

Damn do I get effected these days too quickly? maybe!
too vulnerable to emotions that
cause commotion right in my third so,
do I devote myself to the free flow of time?

See I just got married and I really can't confine myself to the fact that I am.
And explore relationships, I know I can't just quite!
So I relax a bit, make myself to fit in the

situation of high expectation
and I don't want to mess it up, bless shit up with a smile on my face!

Propagate at faster pace, homie now that's a waste.
Almost like I forgot how to face
isolation while I know my mom is far away,
when with her I was like "Mom, go away"
Way above the sky I got a pride of my own.

Late night bringing my drunk ass home.
Blacking out i front of my mom making her cry,

"An Indian unmarried girl boozing out with just guys? OMG she is not shy"
To go perform for free
in the club, on the streets, same old kurti!

Going ahead and just fucking with bass
Waking up to jazz in the morning leaving no trace
I am back to the weekdays.

Doing absolutely nothing just wasting my time,
and now I am working 9 to 9 just to earn a dime!

See you need not complain all the time but be about it.
Understand the cons feel pro and say I got it.

When the family is beautiful... and everybody's wealthy
Fuck your pebble fights ain't nothing that you can tell me

I possess love and only love for those who love me.
Constructive vibe while I yearn to learn from those above me.

See I am a family girl and got compassion for my people.
Still got hidden secrets do things that are illegal.

Now here lies the crux where the Karma penetrates
so she does her thing upon me yes I let her regulate.

Cause we all are human beings who try to fit into others' lives
at the same time divide each other and create tribes... We are marvellous
Human race is marvellous...


I got an itch inside my ear from what I heard from my peers
Shallowness of intellect almost brought me to tears.

See we all want to propagate by forgetting ancestors
Don’t reap the rich seeds and expect the nectar

So ... wake the fuck up face the music my friend
Was not a silly enthu to get married early and

I don’t repend an inch and you can see it through my eyes
Every morning when I wake up I realize!
