Khuluma Beat

Eish, my voice is gone tonight.

But the log drum is ready. Asambe.

I lost my voice in the dust of the city

Shouting for joy under neon lights

Now my throat is dry, but my feet are ready

We don't need words to survive the night

I point to the speakers, you know what it means

The bassline is calling, it's deep in our genes

So turn up the system, let the rhythm ignite

We are dancing in silence, but we shine so bright

I can't use my voice tonight, sho

So let the log drum speak for me, yebo

Let the piano tell the story, aweh

We are moving, we are free, sharp sharp

I can't use my voice tonight, sho

So let the log drum speak for me, yebo

Let the piano tell the story, aweh

We are moving, we are free, sharp sharp

My friend says unjani, I just nod my head

I point to the DJ, see what he just fed

That heavy rolling bass is shaking the floor

No words are needed when we are wanting some more

We communicate through the step and the slide

With the spirit of Jozi right here by our side

My vocal cords resting, but my soul is awake

Watch the moves and the shapes that we are about to make

I can't use my voice tonight, sho

So let the log drum speak for me, yebo

Let the piano tell the story, aweh

We are moving, we are free, sharp sharp

I can't use my voice tonight, sho

So let the log drum speak for me, yebo

Let the piano tell the story, aweh

We are moving, we are free, sharp sharp

Listen closely, hear the keys

They are speaking, telling tales

From the streets of Soweto to the breeze

The music is a ship that never fails

Aweh, aweh, let it play

We don't need to talk today

Asambe, asambe, feel the heat

Just surrender to the beat

The night is still young and the lights are so low

We feel the vibration from head to our toe

I whisper a sho but the music is loud

We melt all together, one soul in the crowd

So hold up your glasses and move to the left

This silent connection is surely the best

No arguments here, just the rhythm and peace

A beautiful feeling that will never cease

I can't use my voice tonight, sho

So let the log drum speak for me, yebo

Let the piano tell the story, aweh

We are moving, we are free, sharp sharp

I can't use my voice tonight, sho

So let the log drum speak for me, yebo

Let the piano tell the story, aweh

We are moving, we are free, sharp sharp

Let the beat speak

No voice, just vibes

Sho, sharp sharp

Asambe

Yebo
