When we asked him about the story of the track he said “I wrote this song 3 years back and never did anything about it, hoping that things will get better in this world. Today though, I relate to it the most. The thought that frightens me is that 3 years down the line, I might relate to it even more. Maybe this could act as a wake up call.” so this is a very personal track to Taran and we love how it has evolved into this since its inception 3 years ago.
