Producer: Slank

Begitukah caranya mencintaiku
Cuma segini rasa sayangmu
Seperti itu kau perlakukan aku
Hanya ini yang bisa kau berikan untukku

Percuma ku mempercayakan kamu
Percuma hingga kau biasa bebas
Bebas di belakangku

Gak ada cara lain lagi
Gak bisa lebih mesra lagi
Cuma bisa yang kaya gini
Gak boleh lebih dari ini

Opini manis kau ucapkan dengan menangis
Akting sedihmu kau jadikan senjata
Rayuan manjamu jadi koncian
Sifat mengalahku yang slalu kau manfaatkan

Percuma kupercaya sama kamu
Percuma kalau kau sering bebas
Bebas di belakangku

Gak ada cara lain lagi
Gak bisa lebih mesra lagi
Cuma bisa yang kaya gini
Gak boleh lebih dari ini
Percuma
Percuma
Percuma

Ada cara lain lagi
Ada cara lain lagi
Ada cara lain lagi
Ada cara lain lagi
Percuma

Slank was formed in 1983 through a school band at a local high school in Slank Jakarta, Indonesia, which named CSC (Cikini Stone Complex). Their main founder, Bimo Setiawan (Bimbim) and their fellow bandmates often played a number of Rolling Stones songs at school. The band later changed its name and personnel to SLANK, with Bimbim on drums, Erwan on vocals, Bongky on guitars, Denny on bass and Kiki on guitars. The name SLANK itself was taken from their musical attitude, which was, and is still reckless, ignorant and play with undetailed groove (Slengean in Indonesian).

In the following years, numbers of personnel changes were made, with Pay on guitars, Kaka on vocals and Indra on keyboard, replacing the previous bandmates.

Although they started their journey in the music industry quite roughly, with numerous of rejected demos, SLANK emerged in 1991 with their “The Best Newcomer” award in BASF event. Successes did not always come for SLANK, when three of their personnel, Bongky, Indra and Pay chose to quit the band, and formed their own band (BIP). Following the resignation, Abdee, Ivan and Ridho joined the band, and since then, SLANK has never changed its personnel again.
