Ah, ah, ah, ah

People, can you hear me?
Here's a message that I'm sending out
I've got the answer to all your problems
And tonight I'll be singing it loud

Just surrender yourself to the rhythm
With your hands up in the sky
Feel the energy deep inside your system
And leave this world behind!

Leave the world behind you
Leave the world behind you, yeah
Leave the world behind you
Leave the world behind you
Leave the world behind you
Leave the world behind you

And leave this world behind

Leave the world behind you
Leave the world behind you, oh
Leave the world behind you, oh
Leave the world behind you, yeah
And leave this world behind





Ah, ah, ah, ah

The line "I've got the answer to all your problems" could be interpreted as a metaphor for the healing power of music, suggesting that by simply surrendering to the beat, one can find solace from their troubles.


The chorus acts as a repeated crescendo, urging the listener to shout out the lyrics in unison with the vocalists. The repetition of the phrase "Leave the world behind you" is a call to escape the mundane and the humdrum to embrace the power of music. The phrase "with your hands up in the sky" is a gesture of surrendering oneself to the music and its uplifting energy. The song's overall message is that of unity and liberation that one can experience through the act of dancing and letting go.
