AAthma raama
[00:00.43] But now, I'ma talk about God
[00:02.55] Back in the time when I was lacking a dime
[00:04.68] My hopeless youth had me slowly get attracted to crime
[00:07.33] Then sat an alliance to talk it out with practical minds
[00:10.26] Felt a force within me, get all my talents combined
[00:13.18] Enacted a mime, enlightened, I decided to rhyme
[00:15.83] Delighted and excited, I'm planning to rap 'til I'm prime
[00:18.76] Started spilling ink on the paper and planned to get signed
[00:21.41] But the world is biased, so wild, they got me slapped with a fine
[00:24.60] Never got a chance, never let me spit on the mic
[00:26.99] Only 'cause I come from a land where people ain't white
[00:29.91] Day and night, I keep flowing, completing all my demo tracks
[00:32.83] In spite being denied the right by anti-democrats
[00:35.76] Unleash my rage through music intense
[00:38.41] The cultural shock that got my whole community tensed
[00:41.33] That's when I close my eyes and talk to God
[00:43.99] Peace in my head, I'm singing this song, and it goes like
[00:47.18] आत्मा रामा आनंद रमना
[00:52.49] अच्युत केशव हरि नारायण
[00:58.34] आत्मा रामा आनंद रमना
[01:03.91] अच्युत केशव हरि नारायण
[01:10.29] Life is an octopus tryna choke you with tentacles
[01:12.94] Survived by only those who prove to be sensible
[01:15.34] With only two choices, good and the bad, uh
[01:18.52] The hardest part is to be choosing a path, check this
[01:21.18] I could've got myself in dealing with drugs
[01:23.57] Or maybe pop a weaker person dead while chilling with thugs
[01:26.22] Maybe blow up my father's money spending on clothes
[01:29.15] Fake an attitude for winning all them feminine votes, uh
[01:32.34] One point of time, I got absorbed in foolish lies
[01:34.99] Was juvenile, thought it was cool to get into brutal fights
[01:37.91] I even had the thrilling urge to kill
[01:40.30] The next second, the whole feeling reversed to guilt
[01:43.23] I was offered a gun, that's when I dropped it for a mic
[01:45.88] Took rap as a career and I thought that this was right
[01:49.07] I close my eyes and give my thanks to God
[01:51.73] Peace in my head, I'm singing this song, and it goes like
[01:54.91] आत्मा रामा आनंद रमना (that's right)
[02:00.49] अच्युत केशव हरि नारायण (uh, uh, uh, take it and go)
[02:06.07] आत्मा रामा आनंद रमना (that's right)
[02:11.38] अच्युत केशव हरि नारायण
[02:18.02] I'm being frank and I'm speaking my mind naked
[02:20.41] Every day on my knees, praying to God that I make it
[02:23.07] The only hope that keep me going is I know I'm artistic
[02:25.99] To levels extreme, my haters agree I'm God-gifted
[02:28.38] But that don't mean I lay around like clinical bait
[02:31.30] When it's mayhem in my head at such subliminal rate
[02:33.96] Cyclic monotony for me is cursed as debt
[02:36.88] I'm only halfway through the phase between birth and death
[02:39.80] One day, I wish to be like Eminem or 2Pac
[02:42.19] And have a million people chanting, "Brodha V, you rock"
[02:45.38] And maybe, wish to have a girl like Emma Watson
[02:48.04] Or even accept a Grammy on stage while mama's watching
[02:50.96] But 'til then, I'ma see days when the weather be rough
[02:53.35] I better be tough, Brodha V gon' never give up
[02:56.27] Now I'ma close my eyes and talk to God
[02:59.73] Peace in my head, I'm singing this song, and it goes like
[03:02.12] आत्मा रामा आनंद रमना (that's right)
[03:08.23] अच्युत केशव हरि नारायण (uh, uh, uh, take it and go)
[03:13.80] आत्मा रामा आनंद रमना (that's right)
[03:19.12] अच्युत केशव हरि नारायण (uh, uh, uh)
