Ah hear ah rhythm

Ah hear ah rhythm that gives me liberation; ah hear ah rhythm that could ease my frustration
When I hold my meditation; It takes over my soul and makes a divine connection.
Ah could hear the heavenly drums as the chantuals harmonize in unison,
It penetrates the skies as we pay homage to our ancestors
Till the sun rise, all I hear is the sound of the jimbay, that energize our celebration
It is a contagious vibration, like a spare in our hand we restlessly defend our tradition
That is easily being overthrown by this foreign sensation and this unnecessary form of malfunction
Now my people uneasy they weary and just can’t function
But ah hear ah rhythm that could stifle that very provocation and project that true ancient rhythm of my ailing nation.

I beat on the goat skim day and night, as every thump expresses my joy.
This rhythm strengthens me like the bois boy and I stand fearless on the floor.
It becomes one with my heartbeat and takes my soul on ah tour.
Ah hear ah rhythm that takes me to the heavens and like an eagle I sore,
It purges the pain from my spirit as every broken heart gets cure.
This rhythm moves me and grooves me and has become a part of my allure
As I am not afraid to flaunt this rhythm like a fashionable couture
So I point to the drummer and tell him gimme ah rhythm ….play meh more play meh more.

Ah cah control meh feet, I get over powered by this invoking beat,
I get numb to the elements and resistant to the heat.
This rhythm that I am hearing pushes me through the streets
I get caught up in a trance for an entire week,
Living proof, that this rhythm that I am hearing is far from weak.
I’m losing sleep, as this energetic rhythm removes all that is bleak.
It romances my soul, as I recite every pattern with my fingers and feet.
I want to scream to the world how this rhythm enticing and sweet.
It unmasked my spirit and in my veins it runs deep.
Ah hear ah rhythm so joyous it makes the heavens and the earth meet.

This rhythm is our sound of music that is unique and inviting,
Every Tambo bamboo band, rhythm section, pan player keeps our people moving.
As we beat on the iron, we come alive when is jouvert.
Carnival, Best Village is the rhythm of my people; festivals that are uniting.
Is to see every man woman and child experience ultimate freedom and an unspoken uprising.
Calypso Soca and Chutney is that invoking rhythm that I have been hearing.
The drum call relaxing, the lyrics inciting; is to witness the magic of that rhythm and the powers unleashing
The thing about life we have one chance and no rehearsing
Ah hear a Trinibago rhythm that is forever calling; so I can’t help but answer this rhythm that is so soothing
Ah hear ah rhythm that could heal my nation and give us as a people new meaning
