Aathma Raama (From "Aathma Raama") - Brodha V
Written by：Vighnesh Shivanand/Traditional
Back in the time when I was lacking a dime
My hopeless youth had me slowly get attracted to
Crime
Then sat an alliance to talk it out with practical
Minds
Felt a force within me get all my talents combined
Enacted a mime enlightened I decided to rhyme
Delighted and excited I'm planning to rap till I'm
Prime
Started spilling ink on the paper and planned to get
Signed
But the world is biased so wild they got me slapped
With a fine
I never got a chance never let me spit on the mic
Only cause I come from a land where people ain't white
Day and night I keep flowing completing all my demo
Tracks
Inspite being denied the right by anti democrats
Unleash my rage through music intense
The cultural shock that got my whole community
Tensed
That's when I close my eyes and talk to god
Peace in my head I'm singing this song and it goes
Like
Aathma raama aananda ramana
Achyutha keshava hari narayana
Aathma raama aananda ramana
Achyutha keshava hari narayana
Life is an octopus tryna choke you with tentacles
Survived by only those who prove to be sensible
With only two choices good and the bad
The hardest part is to be choosing a path check
This
I could've got myself in dealing with drugs
Or maybe pop a weaker person dead while chilling
With thugs
Maybe blow up my father's money spending on clothes
Fake an attitude for winning all em feminine votes
One point of time I got absorbed in foolish lies
Was juvenile thought it was cool to get into brutal
Fights
I even had the thrilling urge to kill
The next second the whole feeling reversed to guilt
I was offered a gun that's when I dropped it for a
Mic
Took rap as a career and I thought that this was
Right
I close my eyes and give my thanks to god
Peace in my head I'm singing this song and it goes
Like
Aathma raama aananda ramana
Achyutha keshava hari narayana
Aathma raama aananda ramana
Achyutha keshava hari narayana
I'm being frank and I'm speaking my mind naked
Everyday on my knees praying to god that I make it
The only hope that keep me going is I know I'm
Artistic
To levels extreme my haters agree I'm god gifted
But that don't mean I lay around like clinical bait
When its mayhem in my head at such subliminal rate
Cyclic monotony for me is cursed as debt
I'm only halfway through the phase between birth and
Death
One day I wish to be like eminem or 2 pac
And have a million people chanting brodha v you
Rock
And maybe wish to have a girl like emma watson
Or even accept a grammy on stage while mama's
Watching
But till then I'mma see days when the weather be
Rough
I better be tough brodha v gon' never give up
Now I'mma close my eyes and talk to god
Peace in my head I'm singing this song and it goes
