Umlilo Wam' (Fire in Me) (versie 2)

Verse

Dust on my ankles, drum in my chest

Bare feet on the red clay, I forget the rest

Sun going down but the sky's still gold

Hands in the air now, letting go of the cold

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, rising through my skin

Something wild waking, calling out within

Higher, higher, watch the embers spin

Chorus

Umlilo wam', burning in the night

Umlilo wam', turning dark to light

Feel it in my blood, feel it in my feet

Umlilo wam', dancing to the beat

Verse

Circle of shadows moving with the sound

Every heartbeat echoes off the ground

Stars start falling into open hands

This is how we worship, this is how we stand

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, rising through my skin

Something wild waking, calling out within

Higher, higher, watch the embers spin

Chorus

Umlilo wam', burning in the night

Umlilo wam', turning dark to light

Feel it in my blood, feel it in my feet

Umlilo wam', dancing to the beat

Bridge

No more holding, no more chains

Just the drum and the fire in my veins

Let it take me, let it burn it clean

Nothing left but the flame and me

Chorus

Umlilo wam', burning in the night

Umlilo wam', turning dark to light

Feel it in my blood, feel it in my feet

Umlilo wam', dancing to the beat

Outro

Umlilo wam'

Still burning

Umlilo wam'

We rise with the sun
