Abstract

Background of a song entitled "Back To Punjab" showing  connections between the verses that play out like conversations between long-lost relatives writing letters to each other from across the oceans. The verse discusses how the place where one should feel the most free – in their own home – can become a cage. Despite everything this individual encounters, he still closes his verse with a positive outlook. He holds on to hope that things will get better for his home and his people. Links to the verse and song are included.
