[Intro] Hela! Hela! Tlohela tsela—ke a tla! [Verse 1] Boots on the floor, re kena ka thata Hands on the rail, ha re eme, ha re bata You talk big, but your feet move slow Ha bass e otla, everybody knows Push that line, make room, make way Re tsamaya pele, we don't obey One sharp turn, then the whole place leans Ke bona mahlo, I know what it means [Pre-Chorus] Ha re phahame—higher, higher Phefumoloha, then feed that fire When I call “Tlo!” you answer “Tla!” Tlo! Tla! Tlo! Tla! [Chorus] Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Move that ground! Re ya pele—turn it round! Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Do it again! Ha re khutle—drive through the end! Hey! Ha! Hey! Ha! Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Hey! [Instrumental] [Chopped Vocal Percussion] Ta-ka, tlo! Ta-ka, tlo! Hey-ya, hey-ya, ha! [Verse 2] No slow step, no looking behind Re tšoara beat, let it sharpen your mind Steel in the tone, dust in the air You feel that hit, now meet me right there Ke re “Kena!” you say “Re teng!” Call that again, let the whole room sing Short words cut and the claps reply We take that floor till the morning is high [Rap Breakdown] Kena ka hare, tšoara ka thata Pelo e chesa, mahlo a bata Step to the left, then strike on three Ha ke bue—watch what I do, watch me Fast talk, sharp turn, no retreat Re a potlaka, run with the beat Tlo! Tla! Tlo! Tla! Bulela matla—bring it all back! [Pause] [Stripped: voice and one pulse] Bua le nna—are you still there? Ke teng! Ke teng! [Final Section] Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Move that ground! Re ya pele—turn it round! Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Do it again! Ha re khutle—drive through the end! Tlo! Tla! Bass down—now hit! Tlo! Tla! Don't you quit! Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Re ya pele—ha re khutle! Hey! Ha! Hey! Ha! Tsamaya! Tsamaya! Hey! [Outro] Tlo! Tla! Re ya pele!
