Rise Up Vukani (Version 2)

Verse

Bassline low in the soles of my feet

Your palm on my back finds the same heartbeat

Neon cutting through the smoke and the haze

A hundred strangers moving the same way

Pre-Chorus

Floor gets warmer, ceiling gets wide

Something in this room won't let us hide

Chorus

Rise up, vukani, hands to the sky

Rise up, vukani, you and I

Every light on the ceiling turns gold

Rise up, vukani, lose control

Verse

Sweat on the mixer, chrome turning red

Your eyes catch mine over everyone's head

Sneakers scuff circles on concrete and glass

This whole crowd breathing slow, breathing fast

Pre-Chorus

Kick drum walking straight through my chest

Nobody leaving, nobody's next

Chorus

Rise up, vukani, hands to the sky

Rise up, vukani, you and I

Every light on the ceiling turns gold

Rise up, vukani, lose control

Bridge

No language but the way our shoulders sway

No promises, just stay, just stay

Your hand still finds mine in the strobe and haze

We move like the night won't fade away

Chorus

Rise up, vukani, hands to the sky

Rise up, vukani, you and I

Every light on the ceiling turns gold

Rise up, vukani, lose control
