To give

This sound
This beat
Is love
Is free
Take what you want, leave what you don’t behind at the door
Rhythm is religion, a reason to pray for
Take what you want, leave what you don’t behind at the door
Let go, get low, get high, and find what you’re looking for
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Get lost get found
Get lost get found
Get lost get found

There is no sin, no sorrow, nothing to pay for
