About
This high-energy Afrobeat track pulses with intricate polyrhythmic percussion and infectious call-and-response singing, driving funky bass grooves that anchor bold brass horn riffs and extended improvisational solos on saxophone. Raw, live-oriented production captures unpolished communal energy, blending West African rhythms with jazz-funk flair for an empowering dance rebellion. Extended jams build to euphoric peaks, evoking Fela Kuti's spirit of social justice and African unity.
Lyrics
Rise up, feel the fire, rise up, rise up, feel the fire, feel the fire. They steal our dreams in the dead of night, no more, no more. Chains of greed hold us down so tight, poise is silence, pockets empty wide. We rise, what's ours side by side, unite, unite. Hey, hey, power to the people, hey, hey, no more chains. We move as one, feel the rhythm, the fight's begun from the shadows. We claim the sun and power now, freedom today. Dance together, spirits ignite, rebellion dance through the night. Africa wakes and unity's light, we own the future, bold and bright. Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
