about

Scottish-Indian protest musician Kapil Seshasayee returns with his most personal work to date after the critical acclaim of his concept album about Bollywood, “Laal”

lyrics

Held a fist in a fight once
Didn't rate the excitement

I'll repeat it all sometime
Regard it as a wound I'd cauterize

For the moment I will try
To follow where these footsteps lead

Choruses of herons come and so deliver us
Hexes on coincidences
Reconsider it

It occurred at once to me,
An agitprop like any other
Idle wards and nurseries
I can't handle any of it

Had I put it all to an
Enlightened fad
A bird of paradise
It afforded me the kind of
Vice
A man can only lionize

Landing on a pillow or
Drifting off in a chair
Gazing at a swallow
I hope that I'm prepared
