With his catchy beat production and clever flows, he has a message for the listeners that is inspiring yet very personal to him.
Verse 1:
I am the one kid, doing that none did/
I don't mean marks when I'm keeping it 100/
Growing up in Puri, I felt so confused/
Why do I look like no one else in the school?
I mean I got small eyes, also a flat nose/
Which is why all guys happened to crack jokes/
Even the teachers treated me like a foreigner/
While all I ever wanted to be was an Oriya/
But how is it possible, my parents like Oreo/
My aunt n uncle raised me, but that's another story though/
Then I blended in, & made plenty friends/
Who tested my patience, YouTube rendering/
I remember man, daddy's like he love me the most/
That was my uncle though, I'd nothing more close/
Bapa you the greatest man I ever knew/
& I'm the Ramakanta junior always repping you till I’m ghost/
Chorus:
Yeah, you messing with the one kid/
What’s my name, I’m the One Kid/
Recognize I’m the one kid/
Who I am, I’m the..
Verse 2:
I am the one kid, doing that none did/
I don’t mean marks when I’m keeping it 100/
At the age of 13, I was sent to Darjeeling/
Little boy from a small town in the midst of larger things/
I had a funny accent and voice too/
Did I forget to mention it was a boys school/
There was this one fucking boy who/
Tried to molest me, aftermath of that they thought I like boys too/
Now imagine, 4 years treated like that/
Laughing stock, feel inferior type crap/
Now who rhymes bold like mine?
I get more women in a day than their whole lifetime/
Trust me, same ones that said “Dude fuck you”/
Are like, “Big Deal you’re the one I look up to”/
But that’s where I learnt how to rap/
Then proceeded to bask in the respect I earned out of that/
Thank you..
Chorus:
Yeah, you messing with the one kid/
What’s my name, I’m the One Kid/
Recognize I’m the one kid/
Who I am, I’m the..
Verse 3:
I am the one kid, doing that none did/
I don’t mean marks when I’m keeping it 100/
Hello Bengaluru, it’s nice to meet ya/
All of 17 where your life’s your teacher/
My daddy’s like, “Somu ja padhe IT”/
But computers weren’t green or cup of my tea/
Still I did my bachelors, then I did my masters/
Yes I know I’m pretty educated for a rapper/
Even got a job thinking it’d make my wallet fatter/
Till dreams thinner than paper dosa on a platter/
Shit, what the hell was I thinking/
Or did I tell you it’s the place I started drinking/
Now you know why I aim so high/
Such a fly artist, yeah, I paint the skies/
And best believe it’s my claim to fame
The game needs change, I swear to fuckin God I`ll change the game/
And I ain’t only here to entertain you guys/
But train your mind, and change your tracks a day at a time/
Come on kids, we got things to prove/
Hello Parents, dreams come true/
Pre Chorus:
Yeah, you messing with the one kid/
What’s my name, I’m the One Kid/
What’s my name, I’m the One Kid/
Who I am, I’m the One Kid/
Chorus:
Yeah, you messing with the one kid/
What’s my name, I’m the One Kid/
Recognize I’m the one kid/
Who I am, I’m the one kid
