Madame Gandhi - Young Indian

DTLA bus sample

VERSE 1
Sometimes I get kinda caught up in the state I’m in
Mostly Pisces on the cusp of being Aquarian
Grew up in New York just like a global citizen
Playing drums as if I’m Puerto Rican Indian

Masturbate to [alt: meditate with] Boxer Bae and then start my day
After all the truth is she’s a real hottie bae
I can’t seem to find all of the words I wanted to say
So if you told her that I liked her well now that’d be okay!

[Let’s go]
Made some time to free my mind and moved to LA
Making something good you need the space to play
I will own my voice and say it when fear gets in the way
No matter what phase of my moon I am on that day!

PRE-CHORUS 1
I’ve been working on myself for a long time
So If you’re pushing me around it’s the wrong time
I am fair but I might ask for some alone time
And When you’re ready to be kind let’s get phone time

CHORUS 1
I’m a young I’m a young Indian
Kinda caught up, caught up in the state I’m in
I’m a young, I’m a young Champion
Kind and calm, kind and calm and saying things

I’m a young I’m a young Indian
Kinda caught up, caught up in the state I’m in
I’m a young, I’m a young Champion
Kind and calm, kind and calm and saying things

VERSE 2
Went to school to see what they are really teaching kids
Seems like making money is the only thing there is
Not to say that being in class is not a privilege
But I would rather take that knowledge and be changing things

Patriarchy kept stopping me so I drew a map
Ways to navigate the boy’s club, the bros and the frats
Ways to ease my mind so I stay fine cuz I can’t deal with that
And if this degree’s in misogyny, well you can have it back

Listen, I haven’t even unpacked yet from the last trip that I started
I can’t even tell you what’s the last post that I hearted
But what I do know is two-fold, and if you mansplain I’m smarter
And while I’m here to learn, if you’re not self-aware I’ll be gone like The Departed (ay!)

PRE-CHORUS 2
I’ve been working on myself for a long time
So If you’re pushing me around it’s the wrong time
I am fair but I might ask for some alone time
And When you’re ready to be kind let’s get phone time

CHORUS 2
I’m a young I’m a young Indian
Kinda caught up, caught up in the state I’m in
I’m a young, I’m a young champion
Kind and calm, kind and calm and saying things

I’m a young I’m a young Indian
Kinda caught up, caught up in the state I’m in
I’m a young, I’m a young champion
Kind and calm, kind and calm and saying things

PRE-CHORUS 3
I’ve been working on myself for a long time
So If you’re pushing me around it’s the wrong time
I am fair but I might ask for some alone time
And When you’re ready to be kind let’s get phone time

CHORUS 3
I’m a young I’m a young Indian
Kinda caught up, caught up in the state I’m in
I’m a young, I’m a young champion
Kind and calm, kind and calm and saying things

I’m a young I’m a young Indian
Kinda caught up, caught up in the state I’m in
I’m a young, I’m a young champion
Kind and calm, kind and calm and saying things
