Livin' Days (Makkale)

(Enikki oruthan prapanchathai namburaano
kandippaa saadhikka mudiyum nu avan mela nambikkai vekkuraano
avanaala kandippaa saadhikka mudiyum, saadhanai panna mudiyum)

Every time I get swayed
suck it up, no time to be afraid
everyday a movie getting made
work it up til I get the main

Life purpose was assigned to entertain
an underdog waiting for my break
but for now I'm just a small time artist livin' days

(Nammalaala mudiyum naama nambara varaikkum
nammakku tholviye kidaiyaadhu)

Ay, yeah I'm living days
can't put my heart out on display, but can you feel the pain?
I swear this crazy age feel like a crazy maze
all the traffic head of me causing blurry haze

I wake up each day feeling like a waste
til I look up to my greats and see them making plays
I promise one day, I will have it made
you'll be lookin at the screen and seeing my brown boy name

Y'all thinking "big talk, can you walk the walk?"
but I ain't a big dog— swear it's all I got
The sound of tick-tock, bustin' out the clocks
until I reach the top, promise that I'll never stop

I know I had it all figured in the 10th grade
saw my brother go through struggles til he found his way
we were cool kids, but we never copped the Js
had to find another way, without losing face

I know I'm blessed cause I know what all my parents faced
call me spoiled, now I know my place, is all I'm sayin
I'm late, passed two decades, but too young to quit the game
my brain is so obsessed about me making all the waves

So why should I care about this?
What's your point?
What you tryna say?
Just take it easy
Stop calling this number
Dai pasikidhu da
Onnum puriyila
Thambi Tamil theriyaadha?
Aiyaya
Hero laam aaganum naa
Tamil la pesanum thambi

Makkale ungal kai thattal podhum
ennai uchathukku adhu kondu pogum
ennudan adhuvum serndhu odum
en natchathirangal vidhi udan modhum

En thiramaigal dhaan en yogam
aanaal ennakkul nariya kovam
adhuvum kuda mikavum sogam
purigiridha en nokkam?

Ooru vittu pudhu ooru ku vandhaanga
palaayirangal kashtangal paathaanga
aanaal eppadiyo jeichaanga
kuda rendu singakuttiye pethaanga

Ippozhudhin endhan neram
ulagathukku kaatuven veeram
alugai sirrippugalai maarum
naan jeippen enna nadanthaalum

Every time I get swayed
suck it up, no time to be afraid
everyday a movie getting made
work it up til I get the main

Life purpose was assigned to entertain
an underdog waiting for my break
but for now I'm just a small time artist livin' days

(Avalo dhaanga
avalo dhaan matter
Right-ngala?
Kill them with your success,
Bury them with your smile)
