The chorus, “Gir Chuka Hoon Khud Ki Hi Nazro Ab Main Bhala Kyun,” translates to “I’ve fallen in my own eyes, now why?”
Dotm’s Bhala Kyun Lyrics (with English Meaning)
Rehne de bhai! hamesha cancel hote hain tere plans
Forget it, bro—your plans always fall through anyway.
Bhai bhot cheezein hoti hain life mein
There’s a lot going on in life, man.
Tumahri tarah bhai flat pe ni rehta hoon main
I don’t live independently like you do.
Ghar pe rehta hoon bhot cheezein dekh ke chalni padti hain
At home, I’ve got to move carefully, considering a lot.
Aur ni hain bhai mere paas paise abhi
And right now, I’m broke too, bro.
Ni hai resources mere paas abhi ghoomne ke liye
I don’t even have the means to step out right now.
Yeah, Ek baar fir bola dosto ko jhoot
Yeah, once again I had to lie to my boys.
Paise chhod mera ghoomne ka mann hi ni hai
Forget the money—I’m just not in the mood to go out.
Hasta hoon pehle se zyada life is a PJ!
I laugh more now, but life still feels like a bad joke.
LMAO! bilkul bhi fun hi ni hai
LMAO! There’s honestly no joy in it.
Sar pe hai kaale se baadal ka saaya
Feels like a storm cloud is stuck above me.
Chutti ka din bhaar dekha sun hi ni hai
I haven’t even heard the word “holiday” in ages.
Kyun dhoond ta firoo main dhoop ko?
Why should I go chasing after sunshine?
Door door tak naamo nishaan ni
There’s not even a hint of light around.
Phone kyun busy hai tera?
Why’s your phone always busy?
Ghar baithe jabki tu karta koi kaam ni
You’re at home doing nothing, so what’s the deal?
Garmi hai kaafi dimaag mein
My head’s burning up with stress.
Dikhega ni tujhe chehre pe saaf
But you won’t see it written on my face.
Aankhon mein need mere seene mein tar
Sleep clings to my eyes, sorrow fills my chest.
Bas aakhri saans tak ek hi sawaal
One question haunts me until my last breath.
Kyun?
Why?
Gir chuka hoon khud ki hi nazro ab main bhala kyun?
I’ve let myself down—why did I fall so low?
Bhala Kyun
Why?
Apna bolte hain shuru mein ant mein hi daga kyun?
They call you their own, but betray you in the end—why?
Zara pooch khush hai tu zillat-e-duniya me
Ask yourself—are you really happy in this world of shame?
Ya fir tu jee ra hai jhoot? (bata)
Or are you just living a lie? (Tell me)
Pesh karta rha saare saboot main beguna hoon?
I kept proving myself—was I truly innocent?
Bhala Kyun
Why?
Paise ke badle hi pyaar mile aaj har jagah kyun?
Why is love always sold for a price these days?
Gaana ni gaa
I won’t spit these verses anymore.
Gaana ni gaa
I’m done singing for now.
Gaana ni gaa par main Aaye din log
I don’t perform, but people still…
Kare meri lyrical ability pe shak
Doubt if I’ve still got it in me.
But the point is f**k bhot deta thha kal
But honestly, I was wild yesterday.
Vakt inhe dera thha aaj ab dene ko dono hi ni
I used to give them time—now I have none to give.
Miracle ni mera kal ye
Yesterday wasn’t some miracle.
Mehnat kari ruke bina maine tabhi
I pushed through without stopping—that’s why.
Mila mujhe karmo ka fal
What I got was what I earned.
Daulat-e-dost bane kam
My riches and friends slowly faded.
Moksh mile shabdo ko beat karu arbo dafan
May my words find salvation—I bury billions of bars.
Chaubis Saat
Twenty-four seven.
12 se 12 banara main gaane
From noon to midnight, I’m making music.
Mehkhaane ke bheetar bitaane ka mann ni tha
Didn’t want to waste time in a bar.
Music ke nashe mein dhutt!
I’m intoxicated by sound!
Successfully abhi venue fully booked
Now my shows are sold out.
Aake devil on the mic bole nobody push
The devil grabs the mic and warns—don’t mess with me.
Sapna Aakhir Kab tak?
How long do dreams last?
23 mein bolke apna She f**ked up
In ‘23 she claimed she was mine—then blew it.
Main khata raah taane dopahar mein raat mein prozac
I kept swallowing taunts by day, Prozac by night.
Varna Mujhe ab tak
Otherwise, even now…
Sahi karne ka soojha ni tareeka
I haven’t figured out how to make it right.
Bana real life hell main devil on the mic
I became hell itself, spitting flames into the mic.
Par ye sab tum mat karna
But you—don’t ever walk this path.
EKAKI se pehle khola tha gift SUKOON me
Before loneliness, I opened a gift in peace.
Kya mila DEV bhai? bande pooche
“What did you get, Dev?” they all ask.
Sorry to say but
Sorry to say…
Mar gaya DEV mila naya kirdaar mujhe
Dev is dead—I found a new version of me.
Haan! likhta gaya jab bhi mentally sick tha
Yeah! I kept writing through every mental storm.
Par adhiktar logo ko ni dikhta
But most people never saw it.
Mera mood shift aaj
Today my mood’s shifted again.
Bipolar hai DOTM, par DEV theek thha?
DOTM’s bipolar—but was Dev ever fine?
Suicidal thoughts karein mathaphodi
Dark thoughts mess with my mind.
Haath laga nasha mere baitha todi kali
Found my fix—broke a dark branch and lit it.
Maine bong hit chaar maare
Took four deep bong hits.
Metaphorically baja raat saari
Played the whole night—metaphorically.
Time dekha paune chaar hui morning start
Looked up—it’s 3:45 a.m. and morning’s begun.
Kabhi walk pe ni gaya coz i am falling hard
Never went out for walks—I was falling apart.
Tera chaal chalan sahi magar chaal chali galat
Your steps looked right, but your moves were wrong.
Tune blind teri nazar mera all in pyaar
You were blind, and I bet everything on our love.
Bas! ab ni sunna aur
That’s it! I can’t hear any more of this.
Gir chuka hoon khud ki hi nazro ab main bhala kyun?
I’ve lost all respect for myself—why did I let it happen?
Bhala Kyun
Why?
Apna bolte hain shuru mein ant mein hi daga kyun?
They say they’re yours, then leave you in the end—why?
Zara pooch khush hai tu zillat-e-duniya me
Just ask yourself—are you really happy in this shameful world?
Ya fir tu jee ra hai jhoot? (bata)
Or are you still living a lie? (Tell me.)
Pesh karta rha saare saboot main beguna hoon?
I kept showing proof—was I the guilty one?
Bhala Kyun
Why?
Paise ke badle hi pyaar mile aaj har jagah kyun?
Why is love always up for sale these days?
