Rubicon Drill Lyrics Translation Gurlez Akhtar | Laddi Chahal | Forever
Laddi Chahal’s lyrics show characters burning fuel with friends as priority. Harman Brar observes expensive cars causing intimidation. Specific lines reference modified tires and midnight returns with companions.
Ho Ankhan Chadiyan Muchhan KhadiyanOh, with intense eyes and sharp mustaches,
