Dust Rising Over Soweto（バージョン2）

Verse

Tin roofs catching first light

Taxi horns start the hymn

Bare feet on the red road

Waking something within

Smoke curls off the braai stand

Grandfather's boots by the door

Every step I'm taking

Somebody walked before

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the street breathing

Under the weight of the sun

Something ancient is rising

Every heartbeat becomes one

Chorus

Dust rising over Soweto

Dust rising off my skin

Dust rising over Soweto

This is how we begin

Verse

Kwaito bass through the fence line

Old speakers wrapped in wire

Neighbors step out their gates now

Dancing lifts like a fire

Concrete holds all the footprints

Layers deep in the ground

Every corner remembers

Every name, every sound

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the street breathing

Under the weight of the sun

Something ancient is rising

Every heartbeat becomes one

Chorus

Dust rising over Soweto

Dust rising off my skin

Dust rising over Soweto

This is how we begin

Bridge

My mother swept this same yard

Her mother swept it too

Now the broom leans in the corner

And the dancing carries the truth

We don't need to remember

The ground already knows

Every grain that lifts skyward

Is the way the spirit goes

Chorus

Dust rising over Soweto

Dust rising off my skin

Dust rising over Soweto

This is how we begin
