Embracing Life's Rhythm: Letta Mbulu's Soulful Reflections
Lyrics
What is wrong with grooving?
Questioning the negativity surrounding grooving or dancing.
Can't a girl just have a little happy?
Expressing the desire for simple happiness without judgment.
Without any hide and seek
Seeking a carefree and open enjoyment without hidden motives.
What is it they're asking for?
Questioning the expectations or demands placed on the speaker.
Surely there must be another way out
Exploring alternative solutions to avoid criticism or judgment.
They don't have to put me down
Rejecting the need for others to demean or criticize.
Why do they follow me around
Questioning the persistent scrutiny and surveillance from others.
Just like their name?
Playfully suggesting that others follow the speaker just like their name implies.
What they owe out there then?
Raising questions about debts or obligations in the external world.
What are they peeping?
Questioning the motives behind others observing or spying on the speaker.
Are they fooling?
Wondering if others are deceiving or tricking the speaker.

Why do they follow me around?
