1."A will jump on the mic sensational,
sending the message international,
there is something for the ladies so get down,
and the guys around town so ruck round.
HERE-WE-GO-AGAIN!
I like the mix and the blend,
got to set the trend as we drink and spend,
right through the weekend,
run go tell our friend how we comprehend,
we tear down the place and then,
make the noise if you want that come again,
cos you can't get down unless your like them,
out to the ladies and gentlemen,
just keep dancing til I say when,
true we're not gon' say when you might as well,
KEEP DANCING"

im on the streets, you dont survive by being beat,
now is the time, time for you to be alive,
no-one can do, the things we do, to make you move,
now is the time for u to come alive,
you can try to lock us up,
but we break down the door,
people jumping up and down,
so they can reach through the floor (x2)
(be strong survive, baby)
The lyrics of DJ Luck & MC Neat's Ain't No Stopping Us (original mix) are about encouraging people to live their lives to the fullest and be alive. The singer says that being on the streets teaches one how to survive and thrive. They emphasize that no one can do the things they do to make people move and that it is time for listeners to "come alive." The use of repetition in the chorus emphasizes the message that there is no stopping this group and that no one does what they do better.
The use of slang such as "koochy-koochy" and "rudeboy" highlights the influence of Jamaican dancehall music on UK garage music, which emerged in the early 1990s. The song's fast-paced beat and heavy use of bass are characteristic of UK garage music. The use of the French word "comprend" suggests a multicultural influence on the music. The song's lyrics also contain references to drinking and partying, which are common themes in dance music.

When I hear stuff like this I realise I liked it when it came out and I like it now still. But the sunny drives, back garden bbqs, house parties and club nights it soundtracked during a period of time in my life I was half the age I am now brings back those awesome memories ❤ tinged with a feeling of my God that was so long ago! Hey I can still 2 step with the best of them as long as I’m back home for 10pm 😂😢
