lyrics

*This dance is different
Tonight this dance is a warfare dance
'Cause God said 'I'm cutting generational curses
I'm cutting them at the head, and they won't grow no more'*

Chorus:
I need to dance, I need to dance, I need to move my body (x4)

Two step with me now two step with me now
Two step with me now step with me (2)

Settle down, settle down
Settle down settle down with me

Verse 1:
Who you know turn true blues to true blues?
Two shoes to too smooth unusual
They beauty give pupils a new dew
My folks unlike no thang that you used to

Purple dusk porch frontin’ and jawzin’
Still cacklin’ come orange hue when dawn hit
Black folks synonym God’s kin
Tack no wig, pull it off then

Praise this love I was born to
Drawl in my grandmothers vowels
How my people shine in twighlight hours
We many suns, galaxies, showers

We lived our past life in solar system
Now the fast life controlling systems
And a state that love to hate us
Shimmy shimmy how we shrug the weight off

Chorus
