# LIFTARA *Nxa Sisiphakamisana, Sonke Siyenyuka.* **[INTRO — Izandi ZaseAfrika, Igitare Elikhanyayo, Iingoma Zeqela]** Hey-oh! Hey-oh! Phakamisa izandla! Memezela umhlobo! Nye, mbini, thathu— LIFTARA! *(Isandi se-bass esinamandla)* **[CHORUS — I-Afro-House Dance Hook]** Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Phezulu, phezulu, nantsi singena! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Bonke baphakamis' iinkwenkwezi! Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Shukumisa iinyawo, phakamisa intliziyo! Enye ngawe! Enye ngam! Phakamisaneni— Nye, mbini, thathu! **[VERSE 1 — Iingoma zeAfrobeats, Igitare Elirhythmic]** Ekoneni yesitrato esixakekileyo, Umama uvula isitolo sakhe. Ufaka amaphupha akhe ecaleni kweebhasikiti, Ulungele umnxeba wasekuseni. Ngaphesheya kwesitrato, umfana uyabukela, Ecinga ukuba indlela yakhe iya kuphi. Uthi, “Yiza ufunde ecaleni kwam, Kukho okwaneleyo ukwabelana ngembewu.” Ububele obuncinci buqala ibali, Ithuba elitsha liba ngumnyango. Uhambo olwalukade lulodwa Lufumana inkampani kwakhona. Sweefin izisa iindlela ezintsha zokudibanisa, Ukudala, ukutshintshiselana, nokukhula. Xa sincedana phambili, Kukho okungakumbi esinokukwenza sonke. **[PRE-CHORUS — Iingoma Zabahambayo]** Uyaziva umhlaba phantsi kwakho? Uyawuva amagubu eqala? Bamba isandla somntu oseduze, Mawudibanise ihlabathi lonke! Asifuni ukunyuka sodwa, Asifuni ukukhawuleza phambili. Xa senzela abanye indawo, Kukho indlela ekhanyayo yokuhamba! **[CHORUS — I-Amapiano Log-Drum Drop]** Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Phezulu, phezulu, nantsi singena! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Bonke baphakamis' iinkwenkwezi! Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Shukumisa iinyawo, phakamisa intliziyo! Enye ngawe! Enye ngam! Phakamisaneni— Nye, mbini, thathu! **[POST-CHORUS — Ingoma yoMdaniso Ebalaseleyo]** Phakama! Phakama! Nyathela! Nyathela! Phakamisa izandla ngaphezulu! Ekhohlo! Ekunene! Jikela! Yiva loo mfo wothusa umhlaba! Phakamisa! Phakamisa! LIFTARA! **[VERSE 2 — Inkokheli Yabasetyhini, I-Amapiano Bass]** Kukho umlimi onemveliso, Kukho umenzi onecebo. Kukho utata ofundisa umonde, Kukho umntwana oqondayo. Umzobi osemncinci ufumana umthengi, Ishishini elincinci lifumana iinyawo zalo. Umntu wenza unxibelelwano olutsha Kwindawo abangazange badibane kuyo. Ukusuka elalini ukuya edolophini, Ukusuka kwiintaba ukuya elwandle, Wonke umntu uzisa italente, Ubomi bonke bunembeko. Singakwazi ukwakha isangqa esibanzi, Singakwazi ukuvula indlela. Nyathela nganye eya kwintsebenziswano Yenza umahluko usuku nosuku. **[PRE-CHORUS — Iqela Liyakhula]** Uyaziva umhlaba phantsi kwakho? Uyawuva amagubu eqala? Bamba isandla somntu oseduze, Mawudibanise ihlabathi lonke! Asifuni ukunyuka sodwa, Asifuni ukukhawuleza phambili. Xa senzela abanye indawo, Kukho indlela ekhanyayo yokuhamba! **[CHORUS — Umthendeleko Womdaniso]** Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Phezulu, phezulu, nantsi singena! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Bonke baphakamis' iinkwenkwezi! Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Shukumisa iinyawo, phakamisa intliziyo! Enye ngawe! Enye ngam! Phakamisaneni— Nye, mbini, thathu! **[BRIDGE — Piano, Children's Choir, Gentle Handclaps]** Ukuba ufumana isango livuliwe, Lungiselela omnye ahambe naye. Ukuba ufumene indlela yokuphumelela, Yabelana ngezinto ezakunceda. Akukho ndlela enye yokuphuhlisa, Kwaye akukho isithembiso ngaphandle konakekelo. Kodwa ihlabathi elinendawo kwabanye Liyindawo engcono yokwabelana. *(Umculo uyaphela ukuya kwizandla ezibethayo)* **[DANCE BREAK — Call-and-Response]** Umphambili: Ngubani onokuphakamisa umntu? Isihlwele: Singakwazi! Singakwazi! Umphambili: Ngubani onokwenza umahluko? Isihlwele: Singakwazi! Singakwazi! Umphambili: Ngubani olilungu apha? Isihlwele: Wonke umntu! Umphambili: Khawundibonise indlela yakho yokushukuma! *(Izixhobo ziqala ukunyuka)* Phakamisa! Phakamisa! Nyathela! Nyathela! Izandla phezulu! Jikela! Enye kuwe! Enye kum! Phakamisa omnye— Nye, mbili, thathu! *(Umculo omncinci uyawa)* LIFTARA! **[FINAL CHORUS — Full Festival Choir, Brass, Percussion]** Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Phezulu, phezulu, nantsi siyeza! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Wonke umntu ufikelela kwiinkwenkwezi! Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Shukumisa iinyawo zakho kwaye uphakamise intliziyo! Enye kuwe! Enye kum! Phakamisa omnye— Nye, mbili, thathu! **[OUTRO — Warm Guitar, Fading Choir]** Isango elivulekileyo, Isandla esincedisayo. Inyathelo elincinci Linga tshintsha isicwangciso. USweefin usizisela iindlela zokunxibelelana, Ukudala, ukwabelana, nokukhula. Phakamisa, phakamisa, LIFTARA! Xa siphakamisa omnye, Sonke siyaphakama! *(Ukubetha kwesigubhu kokugqibela)*
