Lyrics
Everybody from the top
Invitation to everyone to participate actively
Make the groove shake your body don’t stop
Encouragement to let loose and dance freely
Falling behind then you better catch up
Advice to catch up if falling behind
From the hill to the dock
From various locations, a sense of unity and inclusion
The north to the south all the kids in the block
Unity across different geographical areas
Now listen up
Attention-grabbing for an important message
Our revolution has only begun
Implying a beginning of a significant change or movement
Now move your feet to the bang of the drum
Encouragement to move in sync with the rhythm
Don’t matter who you are or where you’re from
Unity emphasized irrespective of background
Move to the mood of the music
Encouragement to synchronize with the music's emotion
Let it be as one
Encouraging unity and solidarity
(One)
Expressive sounds enhancing energy and attention
(One)
-(One)
-(One)
-(Hey!)
-Now listen up
Encouragement not to give up despite setbacks
Show the world that you can’t be stopped
-Now hold your head high and put your hands up
-And if you missed your shot
-Take it back start again reinvent
-And just get back up
-Don’t stop we can stay if we want to
Encouragement to persist and dance passionately
Stand up feel the rhythm behind you
-Dance till’ you drop
-You know that you want to
-Just give it up to the beat of the drum of the tune
-(Now!)
Emphasizing the present moment's importance
Let the music play
Encouragement to embrace the music and live freely
Let the beat make your troubles go away
-Now let the sun shine forget yesterday
-Cause we’re living yeah we’re living
-In a sunshine state
-Now let the band play
-Leave life behind forget your mistakes
-Cause now we’re living in a sunshine state
-And we live just to give
Reflection on the cyclical nature of life and mortality
Just to die another day
-(Don’t stop)
Repetition emphasizing persistence and rhythm
Don’t stop we can stay if we want to
-(Stand up)
-Stand up feel the rhythm behind you
-(Stand up)
-Dance till’ you drop
