lyrics

TAKA TAKA THEI THEI
TAKATA THEI THEI (X8)

Surrounded by remnants of old culture
Reminds me that we live amongst vultures
Gareeb at heart but feelin’ like a zuckerburg
Mama didn’t teach me that, Papa couldn’t give a ****

Surprise! Surprise! Who needs a president! While they’re
Rippin’ us apart like Pineapple Express yo
Garam masala takin’ over news feeds
Mama couldn’t breathe, Papa didn’t give a shit

Forgive me for what I’ve done to you
You are my cause
(Every breath every second I breathe my heart goes)
Forget me and what I mean to you,
I am your loss
(Every breath every second my mind goes)

TAKA TAKA THEI THEI
TAKATA THEI THEI (X4)

(A wise man once said)
Sarve janao sukhino bhavantu, you
Reap what you sow, repeat what you’re told even if it’s
Garbage, I pray to god that people like you
Mar jaaye, mere paas kabhi nahi aaye

Surprise your peers, surpass your fears, make them
Rethink every decision they’ve made all these years yo
Garam bhi thand bhi mere vyang ke rang, main
Malang bhand mere sang paramaanand

Forgive me for what I’ve done to you
You are my cause
(Every breath every second I breathe my heart goes)
Forget me and what I mean to you,
I am your loss
(Every breath every second my mind goes)

TAKA TAKA THEI THEI
TAKATA THEI THEI
