Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We outside in the yard tonight
Plastic cups and the bass too tight
Fresh kicks stepping on the dust
Whole crew laughing, nobody rushed
Mama said, “Go and breathe, my son”
So we dance till the morning comes
Kids on the corner want the same sweet view
Same joy, same sky, same chance to move
[Pre-Chorus]
If you see us, see them too
Same dreams in worn-out shoes
Same heart in the hungry street
Same hope in the heat
[Chorus]
Let them dance, let them dance
Poor youth deserve a chance
Let them laugh like we do
Let them live this too
Corrupt hands took too much
Still we rise, still we touch
General Mkhwanazi you’re on
We need truth before too long
[Verse 2]
They count the coins while the lights stay loud
We share our bread with the hopeful crowd
One friend said, “I pray for the little ones”
Who never got a turn in the sun
At the gate, we hold that prayer
For the ones with holes in their wear
May they taste this joy one day
May they step out, may they play
[Pre-Chorus]
If you hear us, hear them too
Same pain in a broken-blue mood
Same drum in the tired street
Same future underneath
[Chorus]
Let them dance, let them dance
Poor youth deserve a chance
Let them laugh like we do
Let them live this too
Corrupt hands took too much
Still we rise, still we touch
General Mkhwanazi you’re on
We need truth before too long
[Bridge]
One day the gate will swing wide
One day the children won’t hide
One day the poor youth step in
And the whole place bursts with grin
[Final Chorus]
Let them dance, let them dance
Poor youth deserve a chance
Let them laugh like we do
Let them live this too
Corrupt hands took too much
Still we rise, still we touch
General Mkhwanazi you’re on
We need truth before too long

Style
Amapiano 3Step with skippy log-drum bounce, swung percussion, and warm chant hooks; verse rides a sparse groove with muted keys and handclaps, pre-chorus opens with rolling shakers and rising vocal stacks, chorus lands on a chantable call with gang harmonies and log-drum accents. Male vocals close-mic and conversational, with doubled hook lines, ad-lib echoes, and a few crowd-response phrases. Ear candy includes reversed vocal swells, marimba flickers, and a filtered break before the final lift. Bright, punchy, and club-ready with a gritty township bounce.
