[Intro: Encore ABJ]
Haara nahi, haara nahi
Yeah, jo seekhta hai haar se—
Jo seekhta hai haar se, wo haara nahi
Jalta hai aap se, wo taara nahi

Jo seekhta hai haar se, wo haara nahi
Jo seekhta hai haar se, wo haara nahi
Jalta hai—
Hisab

[Chorus: Encore ABJ]
This that cheers to my bure din
This that cheers to my buri raat
This that likhta hoon taaki tair paoon bina doobe aaj
Hello, mister Dubey, kya aap

[Verse 1: Encore ABJ]

Dekh paa rahe ho mere aks ko?
Gaali-galauj se paar mere lafz ko?
Ladai-dhadaai se paar mere laksh ko?
Chudam-chudaai se paar mere waqt ko? Shaayad nahi

Jo seekhta hai haar se, wo haara nahi
Jalta hai aap se, wo taara nahi
Jalta hai aag se, hai taara wahi
Main jalta tha aashiki mein saara din

Pighalta tha aashiki mein saari raat
Teri-meri chhod, ye humaari baat hai
Teri-meri saans nahi, ye humaari saans hai
Hamaara lagaav hai, humaara khwab hai

Hamaara prasaad hai, hamaara paap hai
Jaan-e-jaan, bhagwan jaanta hai
Mere pyaar se shaitaan bhaagta hai
Mere pen ki lakeer se brahmand naap jaaye
Lekin likhta nahi hoon kyunki haath kaanpata hai ye wala fir

[Chorus: Encore ABJ]
Ye wala hai cheers to my bure din
Ye wala hai cheers to my buri raat
Ye wala hai likhta hoon taaki tair paoon bina doobe aaj
Hello, mister Dubey, kya aap

[Verse 2: Calm]

Hello, mister Doobe-aap
Hello, mister Toote-aap
Hello, mister gaane-bana-rahe-the-jage-poori-raat
Hello, mister bade-khwab

Hello, mister fuck-it-up
Hello, mister gaane-to-yaad-hain-khud-hi-ko-bhoole-aap
Hello, mister fake-hai-love
Hello, mister shake-it-off

Hello, mister yahin-wo-rahe-to-hoge-poore-aap
Hello, mister tedhi-raah
Hello, mister faded-aap
Hello, mister nashon-mein-dhoondo-jo-kabhi-milen-na

Chaahiye thoda cash and I get by
Poore karoon plans so I can’t die
This that cheers to my bura time
This that cheers to my look-a-likes

Jinhein dikhe mere bhi bada bhai
Ye wala hai cheers to the fam, jo saath nahi chhode kabhi mera
Cheers to the land, jo paal ke kare bada mujhe
Cheers to the man, jo jaan ke deta salaah mujhe
Cheers to the stand I took, jab bura laga mujhe

[Chorus: Calm & Encore ABJ]
Ye wala hai cheers to my bure din
Ye wala hai cheers to my buri raat
Ye wala hai likhta hoon taaki tair paoon bina doobe aaj
Hello, mister Dubey, kya aap

[Verse 3: Mick Jenkins & Encore ABJ]

Took an E, took an A, took a R
Took an N, everytime I took a L
I was on the cusp but I really couldn’t tell
I was on the bus with a pocket full of drive

Didn’t talk too much when I had to sit still
Even keeled, if they mentioned my walk
Couldn’t expire but the pressure would mold
It would inspire all the questions I fought

Like why the bad prosper and why the good fold?
Or why the bill folds never fill up our pot?
Wasn’t blindfolded, they knew that we can see
Nicodemus, I question everything I was taught

All my dreams, they would seem outta reach
Same way, inseams wouldn’t reach, I was just too tall
Moving the needle, adjusting the hem
Piece it together, I’m quilting it all

No security blankets could keep it together
And we got the pressure of milking it all
Not too much leisure, a nigga been vetting his measurements, specially when mixing with y’all

I might take a breather but I ain’t gone let up these lessons, they definitely get written for y’all
Tabhi main likhta hoon, jitna main likh sakta hoon
Chahe Dilli ho ya fir Kasol
Ye wala hai

[Chorus: Encore ABJ]
Ye wala hai cheers to my bure din
Ye wala hai cheers to my buri raat
Ye wala hai likhta hoon taaki tair paoon bina doobe aaj
Hello, mister Dube, kya aap

[Outro: Encore ABJ]
Samajh paa rahe ho?
Ladai-dhadaai ki baaton se, in club-clubon ki baaton se
In pyaari-pyaari shaklon ke peeche beech mein jo hum ghire hain uske baal dekh ke

Kya aap samajh paa rahe ho, mister Dube?
Kyunki cheezen sataati rahengi par hum cheezon ko sataate rahenge, aage aate rahenge

Apni khamiyon se khud ko behtar karte rahenge
Aur sab ki lekar rahenge
Sahte rahenge lekin doguna dekar rahenge
Jawaab, baat, khwab, pyaar, salika, vichar, shuruaat, ant

Main kabhi tha sober, kabhi tha bhand
Kabhi unhappy, ab dard mein bhi fun hai
Ab dard mein bhi fun hai, janaab

Ye wala hai cheers to my bure din
Ye wala hai cheers to my buri raat
Ye wala hai tairta hoon taaki likh paoon bina
