Kaasila for the paid campaign
Ena naan sethathellam en brand
Ennalum naan oru champion
Ennanalum I’ll be rapping

Just a young kid
Made it from the streets
Now we're rocking
Aimed for the stars
Now I'm moonwalking
As I keep rising higher
Let my work do the talking
They are all hopping in line to trip me up
Just a young kid
Made it from the streets
Now we're rocking
Aimed for the stars
Now I'm moonwalking
As I keep rising higher
Let my work do the talking
They are all hopping in line to trip me up
What boundaries can art have?
Set a melody to the verses
One day I will return with victory
There is no shortage of talent
Win over hearts with music
Sail the rough seas and seek your fortune
There are four people in town to gossip
And a hundred people to point out flaws
No matter what anyone says
Shut the door
Run, keep running
Through hunger and starving days
Sing a song for all ears to hear
Even when many obstacles come your way
Never lose heart, my friend, keep moving forward
If you move free like the wind
One day the truth will win
The whole world will speak our name
If you keep flowing like a river
Even if broken and lost
Come, let us rise and stand tall!
Tamil gave me my identity
My dream is the bridle that steers me
Even if I fly across a hundred horizons
My music will be my language
The thirst for art will never die
Even if I perish, it will sprout as a seed
Even if I close my eyes and vanish
My mortal shell will rise and sing poetry
Just a young kid
Made it from the streets
Now we're rocking
Aimed for the stars
Now I'm moonwalking
As I keep rising higher
Let my work do the talking
They are all hopping in line to trip me up
Just a young kid
Made it from the streets
Now we're rocking
Aimed for the stars
Now I'm moonwalking
As I keep rising higher
Let my work do the talking
They are all hopping in line to trip me up
What boundaries can art have?
Set a melody to the verses
One day I will return with victory
There is no shortage of talent
Win over hearts with music
Sail the rough seas and seek your fortune
Grab an actor
Then a director
Then music and lyrics, that matters too
Shall we make a movie song?
Is this independent music from now on?
But I've got different plans
I'm just one man
It is a bit tough, sure
I believed, like, yes I can
Does it look like I'm bragging?
Man, I'm just stating facts
When you pay for trolls
You thought I'd just stand back?
Out of cash for your smear campaign?
Because all I have built is my own brand
I'm a champion every single day
Whatever happens, I'll keep rapping
Just a young kid
Made it from the streets
Now we're rocking
Aimed for the stars
Now I'm moonwalking
As I keep rising higher
Let my work do the talking
They are all hopping in line to trip me up
Just a young kid
Made it from the streets
Now we're rocking
Aimed for the stars
Now I'm moonwalking
As I keep rising higher
Let my work do the talking
They are all hopping in line to trip me up
Just a young kid
Made it from the streets
Now we're rocking
Aimed for the stars
Now I'm moonwalking
As I keep rising higher
Let my work do the talking
They are all hopping in line to trip me up
