Just tear it up!
From now on, it is only me!
Wherever I step in, it becomes my court!
For your gang,
I am the leader!
'Billa' is my history!
I have handled many like you!
For your territory,
I am the lord!
If I unleash mayhem...
Chorus & Male: Everything gets shaken up!
If I walk in with style...
Chorus & Male: It shines and sparkles!
If you try to stop me...
Chorus & Male: Don't you dare touch me!
When I strike, it's a celebration beat!
Chorus: Rajini!
With a name like fire,
With the 'Superstar' title you gave me,
Even today, I am the king!
Just ask around and see!
Just tear it up!
From now on, it is only me!
Wherever I step in, it becomes my court!
For your gang,
I am the leader!
'Billa' is my history!
I have handled many like you!
For your territory,
I am the lord!
Total carnage, absolute madness!
Sir, our elder brother is pure mayhem!
Even limits scream in fear of him,
So don't come here trying your tricks!
One slap across the cheek,
And you will crawl on the ground, what can you do?
Our brother is a bit rough and tough,
Don't try running your bluff!
Tear it up!
If you have honesty in you,
Style, oh pure style!
If your gaze has a fierce spark,
Whistles, oh roaring whistles!
If you have a trusting heart,
Style, oh pure style!
If your speed breaks all limits,
A storm, oh what a storm!
If iron sits sadly
with its arms folded,
it will break like brittle rust
and crumble into tiny pieces, see!
But if you value hard work
and step forward boldly,
youthfulness in all its full glory
will stay right by your side, see!
If I unleash mayhem...
Chorus & Male: Everything gets shaken up!
If I walk in with style...
Chorus & Male: It shines and sparkles!
If you try to stop me...
Chorus & Male: Don't you dare touch me!
When I strike, it's a celebration beat!
Chorus: Rajini!
With a name like fire,
With the 'Superstar' title you gave me,
Even today, I am the king!
Just ask around and see!
Just tear it up!
From now on, it is only me!
Wherever I step in, it becomes my court!
Chorus: Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
'Billa' is my history!
I have handled many like you!
Chorus: Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Total carnage, absolute madness!
Sir, our elder brother is pure mayhem!
Even limits scream in fear of him,
So don't come here trying your tricks!
One slap across the cheek,
And you will crawl on the ground, what can you do?
Our brother is a bit rough and tough,
Don't try running your bluff!
With a name like fire,
Chorus: Our elder brother is pure mayhem!
Male: With the 'Superstar' title you gave me,
Chorus: Don't try your tricks here!
Male: Even today, I am the king... ah...
Chorus: You will crawl on the ground, what can you do?
With a name like fire,
With the 'Superstar' title you gave me,
Even today, I am the king!
Just ask around and see!
Just tear it up!

Metaphor
“Irumbu sogamaa / Kaiyaa katti ukaarnthaa / Odanji thurumbaa / Sillu sillaa kottum paar”
Compares an inactive person to iron sitting idle with folded hands, which eventually decays and shatters into pieces, serving as an allegory for laziness.
Refrain
“Chumma kizhi”
The phrase 'Chumma kizhi' (just tear it up / rock it) is used as a recurring hook line that reinforces the song's celebratory and energetic tone.
