[Intro: Melson]

I wanna look good for you

I wanna look good for you

I wanna do the things that a woman should do

I wanna do the things that a woman should do

I wanna treat you right, hold you tight

I wanna treat you right, hold you tight

Love you till morning light

Love you till morning light

How can I compete with an image that just ain't real?

How can I compete with an image that just ain't real?

How can I hold you clothes when your-

How can I hold you clothes when your-

[Chorus: Navaan Sandhu]

Shawty kare level’an di gall, te halle tak firdi Mohali

She talks about levels, while she's still roaming in Mohali.

Main baitha first class wich sochan, ke kadon tak utrunga Bali

I am sitting in first class, wondering when I'll land in Bali.

Passport bhareya peya ae mera mohran naa’, Kismat khoni gabru ne poore jorran naa’

My passport is full of stamps; this guy will carve his destiny with sheer force.

Back secure karne di lagga daud ch

I'm in a race to secure my future,

Par na rakhda acount'an wich jod ke

But I don't keep it hoarded in bank accounts.

[Refrain: Navaan Sandhu]

It’s just paper before money, It’s just paper before money

It’s just paper before money, It’s just paper before money

It’s just paper before money, It’s just paper before money

Ni howa chahe foreign ja Delhi

Whether I am abroad or in Delhi,

Te har jagah dukhdi ae Cali

Trouble follows everywhere (Cali).

High ho brain nu bhajawa

I keep my high brain running,

Te real ch karda na kali

And in reality, I don't rush.

[Verse 1: Navaan Sandhu]

Khud kari jawe siftan te bani jawe best

You keep praising yourself, trying to be the best,

Back utte dimple te full on chest

Dimples on your back, full on chest.

Patience up jaariyan ne kar diye test

Patience is running high, putting you to the test,

Par main na rakaane koi paying guest

But I am not a paying guest, girl.

Synthetic aa niri kehndi figure tan wekh

It's all synthetic, she says, 'Look at my figure,'

Main keha desi aa kharakan body niggar tan wekh

I said, 'Mine is raw and rural, look at this tough body.'

Kehndi sohneya arab wale pagal ne sheikh

She said, 'Beautiful, the Arab Sheikhs are crazy,'

Main keha hard work karo jiddan badle ne lekh

I said, 'Work hard, that is how destiny changes.'

Main kara rabb nu dua te oho sunda aa

I pray to God and He listens,

Banda ohnak hi paunda jinna bunda aa

A person only gets as much as they weave (work for).

Jinna lokkan vall wekh ke niraash howe

Those who look at others and get disappointed,

Te life oddan di hi jyonda jehdi chunda aa

Live the life they choose.

Tere ghar ch vi sheesha, Mere ghar ch vi sheesha, Tainu makeup ae geet wich kaar dikhda

There's a mirror in your house and mine; you see makeup and cars in songs,

Main jadon uthda savere, Kara aide naal gallan, Mainu andar da superstar dikhda

When I wake up in the morning and talk to myself, I see the superstar within.

Ni main pyaar wale paper aa chon fail aa rakane, Meri pass hon wali koi reejh hi nahi

I am a failure in love papers, girl, I have no desire to pass them.

Jo main gall maithon faddke bithaai nahio pairi, Aisi duniya te bani koi cheej hi nahi

There is nothing in this world I couldn't achieve if I set my mind to it.

Ni yaari jadon autotune paawe, Aawaz meri bhukh jandi bahli

When my friendship uses autotune, my voice becomes very hungry (intense).

Niece mainu TV utte wekhe, Te bapu buy kari janda paili

My niece watches me on TV, and my father keeps buying land.

Par na rakhda account'an wich jodke

But I don't keep it hoarded in bank accounts.
