Umlilo Wamalanga (versione 2)

Verse

Dust on my skin, the drums pull me in

Bare feet on the ground, losing where I've been

Horizon turns gold, the sky opens wide

I drop every wall, let go of my pride

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, rising through my chest

Every hour burning, I let go of the rest

Chorus

Umlilo wamalanga, burning in my veins

Hands up to the heavens, dancing through the flames

Umlilo wamalanga, nothing holds me now

Free like the fire, I don't know how

Verse

Sweat on the floor, the bassline is a tide

Strangers become one on every side

Sunrise creeping close but I don't want to stop

Every heartbeat louder till the walls all drop

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, rising through my chest

Every hour burning, I let go of the rest

Chorus

Umlilo wamalanga, burning in my veins

Hands up to the heavens, dancing through the flames

Umlilo wamalanga, nothing holds me now

Free like the fire, I don't know how

Bridge

No past, no name, just heat and skin

Open hands, letting heaven in

This is the only truth I've ever known

Burn with me, we are not alone

Chorus

Umlilo wamalanga, burning in my veins

Hands up to the heavens, dancing through the flames

Umlilo wamalanga, nothing holds me now

Free like the fire, I don't know how
