# LIFTARA *Wen We Lift Each Other, We All Rise.* **[INTRO — African Percussion, Bright Guitar, Rising Crowd Vocals]** Hey-oh! Hey-oh! Sombodi lif yu han'! Sombodi bring yu padi! Wan, tu, tri— LIFTARA! *(Explosive bass drop)* **[CHORUS — Immediate Afro-House Dance Hook]** Lif-a, lif-a, LIFTARA! Haya, haya, ya we de! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Evri bɔdi reach de stas! Lif-a, lif-a, LIFTARA! Muv yu fut an' lif yu hat! Wan fɔ yu! Wan fɔ mi! Lif each oda— Wan, tu, tri! **[VERSE 1 — Driving Afrobeats, Rhythmic Guitar]** Na di kona na di busy strit, Wuman open up im stall. E put in drim dem na di basket, Redi fɔ di mɔn in call. Akros di rod, boi de wach am, Wonda wey im rod go go. E say, “Kam lan wit mi ya, Plenti dae fɔ mek wi grow.” Wan smɔl kaindness bring wi stori, Wan nyu chanse go open do. Wetin bin wan lɔnli joni Get smɔl company once mo. Sweefin bring nyu ways fɔ konek, Fɔ kriyet, exchang, an’ grow. Wen wi help each oda go fɔward, Plenti tings wi all kin do. **[PRE-CHORUS — Rising Female Harmonies]** Yu de feel di gron unda yu? Yu de yeri drum dem start? Tek di han' of pesin near yu, Mek di whole wide world join pat! Wi nor need fɔ climb alon, Wi nor need fɔ res ahed. Wen wi mek space fɔ oda, Brighter rod wi go tred! **[CHORUS — Full Amapiano Log-Drum Drop]** Lif-a, lif-a, LIFTARA! Haya, haya, ya we de! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Evri bɔdi reach de stas! Lif-a, lif-a, LIFTARA! Muv yu fut an' lif yu hat! Wan fɔ yu! Wan fɔ mi! Lif each oda— Wan, tu, tri! **[POST-CHORUS — Viral Dance Chant]** Lif! Lif! Step! Step! Put yu han' abov yu hed! Left! Right! Ton around! Feel dat rhythm shake di gron! Lif-a! Lif-a! LIFTARA! **[VERSE 2 — Female Lead, Rolling Amapiano Bass]** Fama get am harvest, Meka don get im plan. Papa de teach im pashens, Pikin sabi undastan'. Nyu designer find im kustomer, Smɔl bizzness get im fit. Sombodi mek nyu konekshon Na ples dem neva meet. Frum di village to di city, Frum di mountain to di sea, Evri pesin bring im talent, Evri life get dignity. Wi kin build bigga circle, Wi kin open up di way. Evri step to inclusion Mek di diff'rence day by day. **[PRE-CHORUS — Choir Builds]** Yu de feel di gron unda yu? Yu de yeri drum dem start? Tek di han' of pesin near yu, Mek di whole wide world join pat! Wi nor need fɔ climb alon, Wi nor need fɔ res ahed. Wen wi mek space fɔ oda, Brighter rod wi go tred! **[CHORUS — Festival Dance Drop]** Lif-a, lif-a, LIFTARA! Haya, haya, ya we de! Oh-eh-oh! Oh-eh-ah! Evri bɔdi reach de stas! Lif-a, lif-a, LIFTARA! Muv yu fut an' lif yu hat! Wan fɔ yu! Wan fɔ mi! Lif each oda— Wan, tu, tri! **[BRIDGE — Piano, Children's Choir, Gentle Handclaps]** Ef yu see do wey open, Opon am big fo di new one. Ef yu sabi fo mek am, Share di ting wey help yu pass. No wan road fo progress, No promise witout care. Bot world wey get space fo all man, Na better world fo share. *(Music fades to handclaps)* **[DANCE BREAK — Call-and-Response]** Lead: Udat go lif sombodi? Crowd: Wi kin! Wi kin!

Evri badi reach fo di star! Lif-a, lif-a, LIFTARA! Move yu foot an lif yu heart! Wan fo yu! Wan fo mi! Lif each oda— Wan, tu, tri! **[OUTRO — Warm Guitar, Fading Choir]** Wan open do, Wan helpin han.
