Show me someone luckier than me
Twenty-four hours aren't enough, my god
Newly rich
You better know me
I've got an army online
Show me someone luckier than me
Twenty-four hours aren't enough, my god
Newly rich
You better know me
I've got an army online
Shall I show you my bank balance?
My path is a unique path
Shall I bust out a dance?
Even Michael Jackson is on our team
I'm going to buy a new Bentley and drive it
I'm going to get wild and shake things up
Until now, I was Manickam the auto driver
From now on, I'll show you Baashha Bhai!
Humming...
While the wind is blowing
Make the most of it
Even a small slip and you'll get caught
Without stopping
Baby, you keep on running...
Even if it takes time, the truth
Will always stand strong
Humming...
I'll play the billionaire game...
We don't dream of anything big
Just a small island
We'll buy it quietly
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear
Dry ginger coffee, or else an espresso
Stop it, stop it, stop it
I don't want your bullshit, cut it out
Shall I show you my bank balance?
Tons and tons of money, money
Shall I bust out a dance?
My bad luck has finally left me
I'm going to buy a new Bentley and drive it
I'm going to get wild and shake things up
Until now, I was Manickam the auto driver
From now on, I'll show you Baashha Bhai!
Soppana Sundari (dream girl)
Wake up in a flash
We hit the lottery!
Slip away and come on over
Soppana Sundari (dream girl)
Wake up in a flash
We hit the lottery!
Slip away and come on over
While the wind is blowing
Make the most of it
Even a small slip and you'll get caught
Without stopping
Baby, you keep on running...
Even if it takes time, the truth
Will always stand strong

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This upbeat and energetic track celebrates sudden wealth, fortune, and the flex of a upgraded lifestyle. The singer boasts about breaking out of humble beginnings into rich luxury, comparing this transformation to Rajinikanth's iconic shift from Manickam the auto driver to the Don Baasha Bhai in the classic movie 'Baasha'. The protagonist humorously talks about buying Bentleys, private islands, and showing off bank balances while building an online follower base. Beneath the playful swagger and pop-culture references lies a message about seizing life's rare opportunities ('Make hay while the wind blows') and keeping your stride despite obstacles, emphasizing that eventual success and truth always stand tall in the end.
