Troubled Waters
Seeking for some peace while stinking of trouble
Some off beat fuckers and they all from Jharkhand
No role models, half the kids are bastards
Daddy still alive but he can't move a muscle
Sippin'on that dirty lassi, spittin out at every duki
Saari gully, saari nuki, economy daal bhati
Proud and broke, don't you call it poverty
Systematic looting of resources of families
Been here for a thousand years
Way before we ever needed a fucking engineer
Way before Mangal Pandey and the souvenirs
Back when British made murder look picturesque
Jaliawaala bagh at the local liquor store
Well, kids don't know what to do
Dad's jumping in the well
Used to be oppressed now we do it to ourselves
Got some Troubled Waters for you
Sneaking off the hall just to take a sip or two
Only did the first class now it's quarter past two
Mr Shekhawat caught us sippin'on that juice
Shanku passed it up like 'sir I got some Troubled water for you'
That's a fair bribe
Can't complain right?
Collateral more damaging than two wives
Mailing black letters every fortnight
Char din ki jawaani till we juvenile
Shit could get really real if we didn't stop
Some didn't, now they struggling on same blocks
Danish done lost the key to his own locks
When he couldn't kick the habit, Daddy kicked him out
I'm an alcoholic just like my father
Low standards, I'll birth another martyr
Caught in a vicious cycle of the product
Before that shit rot off the shelf
I pick another
"Selling off yourself thinking you are the consumer"
Fuck am I gonna do anyway huh? Sue em?
Drank by myself, let me die by my drink
Another addict to you, I was just going with the pain
I got some trouble
I got some troubled...
Kids with no guidance forced to be their own man
Hurt people hurt people, that the old way
Or you can wait on shallow government programs
Now I can't wait in shallow government
Krishi kalyan cess for finding a private jet
Compare that to amount of debts
Can't begin talking about deaths
RIP Gauri Lankesh, we aren't safe in our residence
Adani coming for the rent
Birla tryna be the next aye
What you mean an artist can't be speaking about your crime
Would've been illegal if another man tried
But you got these faces in your pockets for the ride
Non tribal leaders for a tribal population
For whatever reason if they see it fit, your land get taken
Subtle segregation like my man is Desi Reagen
Waving off loans old tactics of the law
Government killed more farmers than the mothafuckin drought
We got some Troubled Waters for you and we runnin' out
Sippin'off troubled waters
I'm
Sippin'off troubled waters
We
Sippin'off troubled waters
I'm
Sippin'off troubled waters
You
Sippin'off troubled waters
I'm
Sippin'off troubled waters
We
Sippin'off troubled waters
I'm
Sippin'off troubled waters
You
