Desire by Chirag Todi ft. Pushkar Srivatsal & Tanya Nambiar
This song is about the process of creating. When the ‘Desire’ or conviction to create something becomes your vocation, it sort of ‘holds you by the collar’ in the sense that it gives you the strength to overcome any and every obstacles. He enjoys the captivating power of ‘desire’ and thus describes it as ’freedom in being caught’. Personally, he is transitioning from harboring suppressed thoughts to freely expressing his opinions. The idea behind this song inciperes from his experience with this newly acquired liberation. This song is the manifestation of his ‘desires’ and an expression of his freedom in the process of creating it.

Lyrics
Time passes by like the breeze
Like sand through your hands,
Or a storm through the trees
No one man can be so strong,
and defy the soul
and not follow after the dream
Pre chorus:
You can run all you want but
(There's no cover when it shoots)
You can be who you want but
(You can't paint over your hue)
There's a freedom in being caught
(When it holds you by the collar)
Holds you by the collar
Chorus:
Ooh
Desire, desire
Ooh
Burning like fire
Ooh
Desire Desire,
Ooh
I'm on my knees
Rap:
You can do what you like tonight
You gotta groove to the beat alright
Fast cars, fast life everyday
Hustle through town all night and day
We be moving up and down
and cruising all around
We got it going on
Life seems good, you know it should
We've learned to stand our ground
Pre chorus:
You can run all you want but
(There's no cover when it shoots)
You can be who you want but
(You can't paint over your hue)
There's a freedom in being caught
(When it holds you by the collar)
Holds you by the collar
Chorus:
Ooh
Desire, desire
Ooh
Burning like fire
Ooh
Desire Desire,
Ooh
I'm on my knees
