Lyrics
# UNLOOPA *Faka Tū. Tū te Rā!* **[INTRO — Tōtara, Pātea, Pākuru]** *(Tōtara e huri ana. Ka tīmata te pātea.)* Huri ana, Te whenua kē. Te kōrero, Te tangi kē. Engari i tēnei pō— Ka huri te rā! Hey! Hey! UNLOOPA! **[CHORUS — Patupaiarehe Pātea]** Un-loop, UNLOOPA! Kōkiri te porowhita, pā te whenua! Oh-ya, UNLOOPA! Rere ki te huarahi, he pātea hou! Haere ki waho! Huri i te taha! Pā te whenua ki te whenua! Un-loop, UNLOOPA! Ka taea e mātou te huri i te rā! **[VERSE 1 — Hihiri Afrobeats, Tūī Kīanga]** I te kāinga, ka pānui a Mama I ngā moni i te pō. Ia ata, ka riro mai te rēti, He maunga e tū mai ana. I tēnei wā, ka ako ia i tētahi, I kitea he ara ki te hoko. He kaihoko hou, he hononga hou, He kōwhiringa anō kei te wātea. I te ara, kei te whakamahere te farmer Me pehea e kawe ai i ngā hua. He kaihoahoa rangatahi e kimi ana I tētahi kaihoko i tawhiti. He kōrero kei te whakatūwhera, Ehara i te kōwhiri o te hihiri. Engari ka haere mai te wā, Ngā āheinga hou ka pā mai. **[PRE-CHORUS — Rere Ngā Pūoro Wāhine]** Ka mea rātou, “Anei te ara e mau ana.” Ka mea mātou, “Me noho tonu?” Tangohia he hikoi i te porowhita, Kia kitea he ara hou! Te rongo i te pātea e kaha ake ana, Te rongo i ngā pātea i raro i ngā waewae. I te mea ka huri tā mātou nekehanga, Ka taea e mātou te huri i te rā! **[CHORUS — Pātea Amapiano]** Un-loop, UNLOOPA! Kōkiri te porowhita, pā te whenua! Oh-ya, UNLOOPA! Rere ki te huarahi, he pātea hou! Haere ki waho! Huri i te taha! Pā te whenua ki te whenua! Un-loop, UNLOOPA! Ka taea e mātou te huri i te rā! **[POST-CHORUS — Kōrero Haka]** Huri! Huri! Kōkiri te wā! Haere ki waho! Huarahi hou! Hey! Hey! Huri ki taua taha! UNLOOPA! Huri i te pātea i tenei rā! **[VERSE 2 — Tīmatanga Wāhine, Pātea Rerenga]** He iti te mōhio, he pānga nui, He iti te penapena, he tīmatanga. He iti te whakawhirinaki, ka tū te pakihi, He iti te māia, ka neke te ngākau. Mai i te pā ki te tāone, Mai i ngā maunga ki te takutai, He ao o te pūmanawa kei te tatari Mō ngā āheinga e hiahiatia ana. Ka hono te Sweefin ki te tangata me ngā utu, E āwhina ana i ngā pakihi ki te whai wā. Ngā huarahi hou ki te penapena, ki te whakawhiti, ki te hoko Ka taea e ia te tīmatanga o tētahi moemoeā. Aroha mai, kāore he ara ki te nui, Kāore he whakautu kotahi mō te katoa. Engari i te taha, ka taea e mātou te whānui Ngā āheinga i te pātea. **[PRE-CHORUS — Kōhanga Pātea]** Ka mea rātou, “Anei te ara e mau ana.” Ka mea mātou, “Me noho tonu?” Tangohia he hikoi i te porowhita, Kia kitea he ara hou! Te rongo i te pātea e kaha ake ana, Te rongo i ngā pātea i raro i ngā waewae. I te mea ka huri tā mātou nekehanga, Ka taea e mātou te huri i te rā! **[CHORUS — Pātea Kōhanga]** Un-loop, UNLOOPA! Kōkiri te porowhita, pā te whenua! Oh-ya, UNLOOPA! Rere ki te huarahi, he pātea hou! Haere ki waho! Huri i te taha! Pā te whenua ki te whenua! Un-loop, UNLOOPA! Ka taea e mātou te huri i te rā! **[BRIDGE — Piano, Children's Choir, Slow Handclaps]** Alo, mi no wantem pikin go carry Ol dis hevi we mi don sabi. Mi wantem doo we mi no fit open To be open when dem waka through. Let di lessons from we papa, Let di courage from we mama, Buildim wan world wey every generation Get more chances pass di odas. *(Silence. One heartbeat.)* **[SPOKEN BUILD — Female Lead]** Wetin go happen if di cycle stop for we? Wetin go happen if di next step change everything? *(A single drumbeat.)* No go around am. Step outside am! **[DANCE BREAK — Call-and-Response]** Lead: We dey go round again? Crowd: No! No! Lead: We dey change direction? Crowd: Go! Go! Lead: Who fit join dis movement? Crowd: Everybody! Lead: Then show me di step! *(Bass builds)* Round! Round! Break am down! One step out! Turn around! Stamp! Stamp! Clap! Clap! UNLOOPA! No turning back! *(Massive bass drop — extended instrumental dance break)* **[FINAL CHORUS — Full Festival Choir, Brass, Percussion]** Un-loop, UNLOOPA! Break dat circle, move your feet! Oh-ya, UNLOOPA! New direction, brand-new beat! Step outside! Turn around! Stamp your feet upon di ground! Un-loop, UNLOOPA! We fit change di rhythm now! **[OUTRO — Highlife Guitar, Crowd Chant]** Round and round— No be so again! One more step Beyond di door. From Africa to di world, Make di new rhythm roll. Sweefin connects us, And together we grow. Un-loop! UNLOOPA! Break di cycle. Change di rhythm. *(Final thunderous drum hit.)*
