[Intro]
Yeah
Uh
Turn that up
[record crackle]
We gon’ praise like this
[Verse 1]
Sunday shoes on the concrete
Mama hummin’ while the line wraps
Deacon dappin’ at the front door
Kids breakdance in the stained glass
Got a sermon in my notebook
Ink bleeds through the ruled page
Turntables on the altar steps
Choir robes swinging when the beat plays
Hands up like a bus stop
Testimony on the downbeat
Grace in a breakbeat rhythm
Saints two-steppin’ in the front seats
[Chorus]
Dust on the vinyl
Hands in the air
Shoutin’ “hallelujah” like we don’t care
Scratches singin’ with the choir’s prayer
God in the groove
Yeah
God right there
Dust on the vinyl
Hands in the air
[Verse 2]
I remember ramen on the stove top
Dad gone
Bills in a stack
Grandma laid palms on my forehead
Said
“Baby
He gon’ bring you back”
Now I’m spittin’ peace where the hurt live
Corner store
Same old crew
Pass a little love in a paper cup
Tell ’em
“If He did it for me
He’ll do it for you”
[low vocal register]
Every scar got a rhythm
Every tear got a bass line
[DJ scratch: “Faith…faith…”]
Yeah
We loop that hope till it stay in your mind
[Chorus]
Dust on the vinyl
Hands in the air
Shoutin’ “hallelujah” like we don’t care
Scratches singin’ with the choir’s prayer
God in the groove
Yeah
God right there
Dust on the vinyl
Hands in the air
[Bridge]
[call-and-response]
Leader: When the beat break down
Who you trust?
Crowd: Jesus!
Leader: When you feel that weight
Who gon’ lift us up?
Crowd: Jesus!
[whispered vocals]
From the block to the balcony
From the bench to the back seat
He remixed my broken heart
Turned my pain into a backbeat
[crescendo]
Oh
We clap on the one
Two
Feet stomp on the church floor
DJ cut that past out
God fade in a brand-new score (yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
Dust on the vinyl
Hands in the air
Yeah
Uh

Stijl van muziek
Golden-era boom bap with live church band: dusty drum breaks, chopped choir samples, and DJ scratches weaving around a warm bassline. Male vocals riding the pocket like 90s rap cadences on the verses, call-and-response group shouts on the hook. Organ stabs and muted guitar riffs in the gaps, crowd claps swelling into a big, hands-up final chorus., gospel
