On Dosh, Prabh Deep reflects on the trappings of being an artist that’s completely open and vulnerable with his family, fans, and peers on social media. Referring to the ease with which it’s possible to get lost in the void provided by such platforms, the single sees Prabh Deep reach out to his fans and try to explain how, from now on, he’d rather have these conversations through his art and put his vulnerabilities and emotions on display in the music.
lyrics
Mai jee reha va issey hi khyaal vich, ki a meri kimat naaley ki aa mera dosh?
Sona mai banawa mainu mitti de bhaw te ditta tol.
Mai daur toh aa aagey thodi alag meri dodh.
Mai bhaj reha Tez taavi iko tha te aa kyu?
Mai har paaso khichi hoyi aa dor.
Mai kalla uttey laya hoya zor.
Mai har ik choti cheez uttey kitta gaur tavi soochi ch nahio.
Aj purey jagg toh naraaz wa, umeed hori khatam te kalpe meri atma.
Kalla de naam paya gand jinhe ohda kro khaatma.
Industry da ganit v kharaab va.
Mai baarvi aa fail tavi Kalam samjhdaar, aakhan khol suttey hoye ne deni paini daat.
Mera aakhri sawaal, meri kala da udhar kado chukana ve janaab?
Nainsaafi a na maafi a
Sahi kam layi nakaami a.
Bas kaafi a nainsaafi a
Sahi kam layi nakaami a.
Samaaj bole anpad a tera nahi koi fayda,
Samaaj ve naraj kyuki toda roz kayda,
Samaaj kehnda kala nu bs shonk layi rakho,
Samaaj di mariyada di vjha vi ta dasso.
Samaaj kehnda kudi nu rasoi vich rakho,
Samaaj kehnda nashe krna galat,
Hewaniyat nashe vich dikhawe mainu tharak.
Bas soch di a gal,
Samaaj chade saath jdo aave aukha waqt,
Samaaj deve izzat jdo paisa mere val.
Samaaj de kaydeya te challey puri umar paige jado roti de v laale,
Samaaj ne vi kitti naio madad.
Samaaj de nazariye toh rooh meri alag,
Samaaj di nazar toh ruhaniyat a galat,
Samaaj di kasauti vich hoya badchalan,
Samaaj karda dur insaniyat toh dharam.
Eh samaaj ve seyana, bann ti a paera te saade soney di sangal.
Eh samaaj ve seyana, thoda jeha udoge eh thalley dega patak.
Eh samaaj ve seyana,
Ehde saamne ki tu?
Eh samaaj ve seyana, seyana kutta khaunda ve guh!
Wapis aana thale nahio mera intekhaab,
wapis jaake piche mai kyo deva imtihaan?
Wapis aana thale nahio mera intekhaab,
wapis jaake piche mai kyo deva imtihaan?
Nainsaafi a na maafi a
Sahi kam layi nakaami a.
Bas kaafi a nainsaafi a
Sahi kam layi nakaami a.
