Cruz' huge smash, whose genesis is broken down in this New York article. Here’s how it came to be:
Dr. Luke wrote “Dynamite”—sort of. It’s not entirely correct to say he writes his songs, at least not in the romanticized sense of a lonely dude scratching notes while strumming away on an acoustic g...
[Verse 1]
I came to dance, dance, dance, dance (Yeah)
I hit the floor 'cause that's my plans, plans, plans, plans (Yeah)
I'm wearing all my favorite brands, brands, brands, brands (Yeah)
Give me some space for both my hands, hands, hands, hands, yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause it goes on and on and on
And it goes on and on and on, yeah
[Chorus]
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes
Sayin' "Ayo, gotta let go"
I wanna celebrate and live my life
Sayin' "Ayo, baby, let's go"
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause we gon' rock this club
We gon' go all night
We gon' light it up
Like it's dynamite
'Cause I told you once
Now I told you twice
We gon' light it up
Like it's dynamite
[Verse 2]
I came to move, move, move, move (Yeah)
Get out the way of me and my crew, crew, crew, crew (Yeah)
I'm in the club so I'm gonna do, do, do, do (Yeah)
Just what the ****, came here to do, do, do, do (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause it goes on and on and on
And it goes on and on and on, yeah
[Chorus]
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes
Sayin' "Ayo, gotta let go"
I wanna celebrate and live my life
Sayin' "Ayo, baby, let's go"
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause we gon' rock this club
We gon' go all night
We gon' light it up
Like it's dynamite
'Cause I told you once
Now I told you twice
We gon' light it up
Like it's dynamite
[Bridge]
I'm gonna take it all, I
I'm gonna be the last one standing
Higher overall, I
I'm gonna be the last one landing
'Cause I, I, I believe it
And I, I, I, I just want it all
I just want it all
I'm gonna put my hands in the air
Hands, hands in the air
Put yo' hands in the air
[Chorus]
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes
Sayin' "Ayo, gotta let go"
I wanna celebrate and live my life
Sayin' "Ayo, baby, let's go"
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause we gon' rock this club
We gon' go all night
We gon' light it up
Like it's dynamite
'Cause I told you once
Now I told you twice
We gon' light it up
Like it's dynamite

Dynamite was produced by benny blanco & Dr. Luke.
People ask me all the time, ‘Why is it, “I throw my hands up in the air sometimes?’ Why is it only ‘sometimes’?” It wasn’t meant to be a straight-up party song.
