About

This high-energy Afrobeat track pulses with intricate polyrhythmic percussion and driving funky bass grooves, layered with bold brass horn riffs and extended improvisational sax solos that evoke Fela Kuti's revolutionary spirit. Call-and-response vocals rally listeners in a communal uprising against corruption and injustice, fueled by unpolished live-oriented production that captures raw, audience-engaging energy. The structure builds from percussive intros to explosive jams, perfect for dancefloors igniting social change.

Lyrics

Westwood's curved like smoke A ghost sling a ghost I can't let go We through nights Through nights where passion burns slow Bends every note I know There's heavy glue in your design Fading echoes call Light answers soft and low petals Winding paths where longing starts to grow Where the wild winds slow Where the wild winds blow There's unraveling the quiet Afterstorms Embers glow Where fire kept us warm Chasing nights So for nights In the pool Forever torn Forever One breath You left two sides I'm a wreck Four lies While we get one It unfolds Two breaks It holds three ways Love molds for days Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold Too cold
