[Intro]
(Ad-libs: Yeah, ha, skrrt)
Mafia mere dost — we don't fold
Mafia mere dost — heart of gold
[Verse 1]
Ek raat chhat pe, barish aur cigarette ki dhund, hum chaar
Tu bola "bas do minute," waise hi ban gayi woh yaarana yaar
Pocket khali tha uss waqt, lekin vishwas bhara tha haath mein
Sheher ne sikhaaya kaisa chauka, par humne sambhala raat mein
Ek aadmi aaya test lene, note gira liya, wapas laaye humne
Uski aankhon mein darr tha, par humne sikhaya sacchai se jeene
Scars hain mere seene pe, par har nishaan ne sach bola
Betrayal ka naam liya kadam, humne rishte ki kasam se tola
(Ad-lib gap — yeah, pause)
[Pre-Chorus]
Log compare kar rahe, par unki tareef hawa mein rehti
Humne karte kam, dikhate kum — kaam se pehchaan banti
[Chorus / Hook]
Mafia mere dost — we don't fold (we don't fold)
Mafia mere dost — heart of gold (heart of gold)
Mafia mere dost — we stay cold (stay cold)
Mafia mere dost — stories told (stories told)
(Ad-libs: ha, ha, ayo)
[Verse 2 — Half-switch, faster flow]
Rooftop meetings, license plate chipped, old boots, new plan
Insta pe highlight reels, real life chhupa hua behind the van
Compare karte nazar, par count their likes, not our scars
Humne chhoda na kabhi raah, humne saaji apni taaron ki bars
Pocket mein iraade full load — ammo nahin, iraade ginti
Hath main pen, kaagaz, aur naam — dignity pe printed
Kahin se shuru humne kiya, cigarette box se paise bachaye
Aaj jab wo bolte "Mafia," hum haste — kyunki yeh humari sachchai hai
(Ad-libs between lines for space)
[Pre-Chorus — variation]
Sheher ki raunak, par raat ko hum rakhte saath-saath
Jo khoya tha kal, aaj usko phir se milta raah
[Chorus / Hook]
Mafia mere dost — we don't fold (we don't fold)
Mafia mere dost — heart of gold (heart of gold)
Mafia mere dost — we stay cold (stay cold)
Mafia mere dost — stories told (stories told)
(Ad-libs: yeah, ayy, ha)
[Bridge — vulnerability moment]
Maa ke haath ki roti, choti si dukaan, sapne bade the
Tere pehle mera darr tha, ab tera saath mera wafa se
Ek pal mein bana nahi yeh rishta, raaton ki chori se bana
Jab sab ne chhod diya, tumne pakda haath, main tera insaaf bana
(Soft ad-lib: mmm, haan)
[Outro — final hook with space for ad-libs]
Mafia mere dost — we don't fold (echo: we don't fold)
Mafia mere dost — heart of gold (echo: heart of gold)
Hum uthe, hum chale, humne rishton ko tala nahi lagaya
Insta mein chal raha show, par asli kahani yahin likh gaya
(Ad-libs fade: yeah, ayy, ha — skrrt)
