Lyrics

Intro

Cold cement

Breath like smoke

Blanket snapping

Ancestors woke

Verse

Courtyard corner

Before the sun

Beating rugs against the wall

Until the day's begun

Grandmother's rhythm

Still in my wrist

Every strike of dust

Is a fist through the mist

Chorus

Dust rises at dawn

Skin remembers

What the hands move on

Dust rises at dawn

Verse

Washing line ghosts

Sheets catch the light

Hips find the pattern

Left over from the night

Cockerel calling

Speakers still low

Bare feet keeping

What the elders used to know

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the courtyard turning

Gold before the heat

Something old is burning

Underneath my feet

Chorus

Dust rises at dawn

Skin remembers

What the hands move on

Dust rises at dawn

Bridge

Every beat I carry

Isn't only mine

Hands before my hands

Kept the same time

Chorus

Dust rises at dawn

Skin remembers

What the hands move on

Dust rises at dawn

Outro

Settle now

Gold on the ground

We rise with the dust

We rise with the sound
