Verse
Concrete hall where my grandmother swept
Same red dust that the floorboards kept
Tonight the speakers wake the old ground
Every footstep got a older sound
Somebody's mother danced right here
Somebody's father lost his fear
The walls remember what the streets forgot
My feet keep finding steps I never learned, but I know the spot
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it rising through the floor
Grandmother's rhythm knocking at the door
It's not a memory, it's still alive
It's in my hips, it's how I survive
Chorus
Dust on the dancefloor, carrying us home
Dust on the dancefloor, we're never dancing alone
Every grain remembers, every grain still knows
Dust on the dancefloor, that's how the spirit grows
Verse
Tin roof shaking, the bassline low
Same hall my uncle used to know
Photograph curling on the wall
Watching us answer the ancestral call
Streetlight bleeding through the door
This was a church, this was a war
Now it's a room where the bodies rise
Dust in the rafters, dust in our eyes
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it rising through the floor
Grandmother's rhythm knocking at the door
It's not a memory, it's still alive
It's in my hips, it's how I survive
Chorus
Dust on the dancefloor, carrying us home
Dust on the dancefloor, we're never dancing alone
Every grain remembers, every grain still knows
Dust on the dancefloor, that's how the spirit grows
Bridge
I put my palm down on the ground
Feel the heartbeat, feel it pound
Not mine alone, it never was
Hundred voices in my blood
This floor was here before the sound
Long before we found this ground
Chorus
Dust on the dancefloor, carrying us home
Dust on the dancefloor, we're never dancing alone
Every grain remembers, every grain still knows
Dust on the dancefloor, that's how the spirit grows
