[Hook]
Yeah, yeah, see I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to an anthem, wanna see you dance with me
I said I wanna see your hands up, turn this to an anthem
Turn this till you dance with me
[Verse 1]
Yeah, yeah, I keep my people with me
Keep my people close
Hoping we can see more than the city
I keep holding on
I just wanna show my mums I did it
Didn't sell my soul
See some people do it for a for a check
But I won't stoop that low, no
I would never stoop that low
I would never drop that ball, no
I would never lose my cool, see
I just keep my best foot forward
I just keep my groove, see
We ain't tryna make no enemies
I changed my life for good and I changed my life forever
See, forever
[Hook]
See, I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to a anthem, wanna see you dance with me. [mm, mm]
I said I wanna see, your hands up
Turn this to an anthem, wanna see dance with me. [with me, uhh]
I said I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to an anthem, wanna see dance with me. [I wanna see, ohh]
I said I wanna see your hands up, [I wanna see]
Turn this to an anthem, [I wanna see] wanna see you dance with me. [I wanna see]
[Verse 2]
Uh, what is like, what is love? [what is love?]
What is you, what is us? [what is us?]
We survived, that we trust
And this ain't nothing like no other functions
Keep it bumping play those trumpets loud
Show me what you're all about
I've been thinking maybe we can make it out
Don't you let them bring you down
This ain't nothin' 'bout the goodness
I ain't 'bout the calling
'Bout to show you music that you groove with, [man]
We ain't making enemies, I changed my life forever
[Hook]
See, I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to an anthem, wanna see you dance with me
I said I wanna see, your hands up
Turn this to an anthem, wanna see dance with me. [with me, uhh]
I said I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to an anthem, wanna see dance with me. [I wanna see, ohh]
I said I wanna see your hands up, [I wanna see]
Turn this to an anthem, [I wanna see] wanna see dance with me. [I wanna see]
[Outro]
See, I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to a anthem, wanna see you dance with me
See, I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to a anthem, wanna see you dance with me. [with me, uhh]
See, I wanna see your hands up
Turn this to an anthem, wanna see dance with me. [I wanna see, ohh]
I said I wanna see your hands up, [I wanna see]
