Lyrics
Energetic Afro House, 127 BPM, driving rounded kick, deep rolling bass, layered African hand drums, shakers, organic percussion, bright kalimba accents, warm African-accented male and female duet, joyful call and response, communal chant, memorable melodic chorus, powerful club groove, polished DJ-friendly intro and outro, no rap, no spoken intro, no EDM-pop drop
Style of Music
[Extended Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1 – Male] Dust on the road, sun on my skin A thousand small stories moving within Footsteps are calling from village to shore The rhythm remembers what we came here for [Verse 2 – Female] Hands in the air, faces aglow Somewhere the old river starts to flow No one is standing outside of the sound Tonight every heartbeat is gathering round [Pre-Chorus – Together] Step by step, the circle grows Feel that current as it rolls [Chorus – Together] Rivers remember, rivers run Carrying the rhythm from one heart to one Rivers remember, calling us near We answer together, we answer here [Post-Chorus – Call and Response] (Male) Where does it flow? (Female) Where we go! (Male) What do we hear? (Female) Everyone here! (Together) Rivers remember — let it roll [Instrumental Groove] [Verse 3 – Female] The night opens wide, the drums start to climb A bright little spark turns into a shine Strangers become like friends we have known Nobody dances out here alone
