Skin Knows The Beat lyrics
Verse
Bassline find my ribs before the light dey come
Sweat on my collarbone before the room get warm
Shaker dey talk small talk in my chest now
Nobody told me, but my body just know how
Pre-Chorus
Feel it rising from down to my head
Skin don already learn what the drum said
Chorus
Skin knows the beat before the speaker sound
Body lead amsef, I no dey chase the ground
Sweetness in my rib cage, sweetness in my toes
Skin knows the beat, let the rhythm go
Verse 2
Marimba whisper secrets that my throat can't say
Log drum knocking like it already knows my name
Ankle ring shaking small small like am laughing now
Every step I take dey answer what the drum allow
Pre-Chorus
Feel it rising from down to my head
Skin don already learn what the drum said
Chorus
Skin knows the beat before the speaker sound
Body lead amsef, I no dey chase the ground
Sweetness in my rib cage, sweetness in my toes
Skin knows the beat, let the rhythm go
Bridge
No be the music call me, na my body already move
Before I know say it's time for love to choose
Palms on the wall just following what my chest already know
Sweetness dey wait for nothing now
Let the skin decide when to go
Chorus
Skin knows the beat before the speaker sound
Body lead amsef, I no dey chase the ground
Sweetness in my rib cage, sweetness in my toes
Skin knows the beat, let the rhythm go
