Subtle Starboy Lyrics English Translation – WhysoKai | Hustle 5

Mere Baap Ko Pataa Nahi Kya Hoti Mixtape
My father doesn’t know what a mixtape is.

Par Pataa Beta Kamaata Hai Rap Se Roz
But he knows his son earns money every day through rap.

Ab Maa Ke Liye Bag Loon Roz
Now I can buy a bag for my mother every day.

Woh Soche The Hell Is He Doing Jab Call Kare Raat Ko Dad Ke Dost Aur Bolte Beti Ko Milna Hai Kai Se
She wonders, “What the hell is he doing?” when my father’s friends call at night and say they want their daughter to meet Kai.

Saath Mein Dekhne Faayde
They also see the benefits of being associated with me.

Woh Parso Gayi Thi Bombay
She went to Bombay the day before yesterday.

Dhoondh Rahi Flat Ek Kai Ke Side Mein
She is looking for a flat somewhere near Kai’s place.

Yeh Diya Hua Bataana Trauma Kiska
Tell me, whose trauma is this that has been passed down?

Teri Ego Jahan All My Kicks Are
Your ego is where all my kicks are directed.

Main Aata Uss Jagah Se Jahan Pe Rap Ke
I come from a place where, in the name of rap,

Naam Pe Shawarma Bikta
People sell shawarma using rap’s name.

Aur Gaane Nahi Saare
And these aren’t all songs.

Yeh Bahaane Banaatein Hain
These people keep making excuses.

Jawaan Deewaane Kala Ke Hain
Young people are passionate about art.

Meri Qalam Bhi Imtiaz Ke
Even my pen is associated with Imtiaz.

Naam Se Logg Tamaashe Banaatein Hain
People turn things into a spectacle using his name.

Galay Pe Jhoomti Chain Jab Moti
The heavy chain swings around my neck.

Gully Mein Bhaage Sab Aate Hain
Everyone comes running through the streets.

Aur Sheher Ko Laaya Main Map Pe
And I put my city on the map.

Haan Mere Haathon Ke Chhaale Bataate Hain
Yes, the calluses on my hands tell the story of my hard work.

Haan Main Bhi Thoda Sa Laalchi MatlabI Kutta Kameena
Yes, I’m also a little greedy, selfish, and a ruthless bastard.

Nahi Sochta Hoon Kisi Friend Ke Baare Mein
I don’t think about any friend.

Ab Sheher Se Door Ek Bandra Flat
Now I have a flat in Bandra, away from my hometown.

Nahi Sochta Rent Ke Baare Mein
I no longer worry about the rent.

Ab Sochta End Ke Baare Mein
Now I think about the end.

Meri Chhoti Si Behen Ke Baare Mein
I think about my little sister.

Aur Waada Kiya Tha Jo Baap Ko
And about the promise I made to my father.

Sochta Kaali Uss Benz Ke Baare Mein
I think about that black Mercedes-Benz.

Deal Uthaayi Thi Parso Moti Par
I picked up a hefty deal the day before yesterday.

Kalaakaari Kabhi Biki Thi Na
But my artistry was never for sale.

I Am That Chosen One
I am the chosen one.

But Shit Yeh Mere Liye Easy Nahi Tha
But damn, this wasn’t easy for me.

Aur Tolta Kisi Ko Kya
And how could I judge anyone?

Mere Saath Mein Khud Na Dost Ruke Thay
Even my own friends didn’t stay by my side.

Meri Qabar Se Phool Chura Lena
Steal flowers from my grave.

Bikenge Woh Bhi Karod Rupay Ke
Even those flowers will sell for crores of rupees.

Meri Maa Ko Nahi Pataa Ke Kya Hoti Album
My mother doesn’t know what an album is.

Par Jab Main Hasun Toh Maa Meri Khush Hoti Bahot
But when I smile, my mother becomes very happy.

Pataa Ke Beta Hai Wajah Ke
She knows her son is the reason

Kar Dete Dushman Sab Mere Ab Mission Abort
That all my enemies now abandon their missions.

Baatein Zyaada Bhi Nahi Karta Kabhi
I don’t talk too much either.

Aur Shaakahaari Parivaar Ka Ladka
And I’m a boy from a vegetarian family.

Main Khaata Har Raat Ko Chicken A Lot
But I eat a lot of chicken every night.

Shit
Damn!

Sorry Maa Bombay Changed Me
Sorry, Mom, Bombay changed me.

Yeh Zindagi Omni Man Ki
This life is like Omni-Man’s life.

I Killed The Pain Myself
I dealt with the pain myself.

Ab Need Nahi Combi-Claim Ki
Now I don’t need Combi-Claim anymore.

Aur Gaane Toh Tu Bhi Banaata Hai
You make songs too.

Bas Raqam Hai Confidence Ki
The only difference is the amount of confidence you have.

Maine Jeeta Hai Desh Ka Dil
I have won the hearts of the nation.

Ab Baari Hai Continent Ki
Now it’s time to win over a continent.

Aur Mere Gaanon Mein Hafta Nahi Lagta
My songs don’t take a week to make an impact.

Yeh Hustle Bhi Sapna Nahi Lagta Hai
Even this hustle no longer feels like a dream.

Ab Deti Hain 100 Line Roz Aur Line Mein Kai Ko
Now they deliver a hundred lines every day, and people line up for Kai.

Lagna Nahi Padta Hai
No one has to force themselves to be part of it.

Aur Dekhi Hai Apnon Ki Samaadhi Kitni
And I’ve seen so many graves of my own people.

Iss Ped Pe Shaakha Nahi Tik-Ti
No branch can stay on this tree.

Utne Hain Mere Monthly Listener
I have as many monthly listeners

Tere Sheher Ki Aabaadi Jitni
As the population of your entire city.

Cause I Am WhySo Kai
Because I am WhySo Kai.

Jo Khade Hain Mere Aaj Hain Khilaaf
Those who stand against me today

Woh Poochhenge Ke Paise Bhi Kamaaya Right
Will ask whether I made money the right way.

Main Chhaati Chaudi Karke Shows Phaad Doonga
I’ll perform brilliantly at shows with my chest held high.

Aur Front Row Mein Bandiyan Shanaya Type
And there’ll be girls like Shanaya in the front row.

Pehla Show Maara Tha Milay Nahi Thay 100 Rupay
I performed my first show and didn’t even earn 100 rupees.

Kal Show Ka Mere Rate 60 Laakh Hoga
Tomorrow, my show fee will be 60 lakh rupees.

Koi Dilruba Na Kabhi Mere Saath Hogi
I may never have a beloved by my side.

Par Jeetunga Toh Sar Pe Maa Ka Haath Hoga
But when I succeed, my mother’s hand will be on my head.

Maa Ko Chinta Khaati Sheher Se Main Door Kaafi
Mom worries because I live far away from my hometown.

Maa Tu Kabhi Dariyo Matt
Mom, never be afraid.

Na Beta Tera Darta Hai
Your son isn’t afraid either.

Interest Nahi Dikhaaya Kabhi Loan Mein Par
I’ve never shown interest in taking out a loan, but

Kaafi Zimmedaariyon Ka Sar Pe Mere Karza Hai
I carry a heavy debt of responsibilities on my shoulders.

Yeh Saanp Kaante Dost DhokeBaaz Kaafi
There are plenty of snakes, backstabbers, and deceitful friends.

Par Paer Mere Chalte Rahenge
But my feet will keep moving forward.

Main Bas Khaali Jeet-Ta Rahunga
I’ll simply keep winning.

Ye Log Saare Jalte Rahenge
And all these people will keep burning with jealousy.

Patthar Dil Hai Lekin Kaanch Ka Ghar Bana Hoga
I may have a heart of stone, but I’ll have built a glass house.

Har Ghar Ka Baccha Mera Naam Sunke Bada Hoga
Children in every household will grow up hearing my name.

Mein Ginunga Nahi Kitni Varmala’Ein Airport Pe
I won’t even count how many garlands I receive at the airport.

Par Pataa Baap Seena Chauda Karke Khada Hoga
But I know my father will stand there with his chest held high, proud of me.
