[Josiah Willams - Verse 1:]
Started in the homeland, word to the mother
Glory to the Father and it goes to no other
Blessed by the culture, raised by the custom
I celebrate love through the sounds of percussion
Now that you're listening, dive in the rhythm and
Ride to the style and the vibe of Caribbean
My West African melanin, drives my adrenaline
Live in my element, surviving, relevant
I don't work a job, I work for the village
These are my people, and this is our business
I support a lifestyle open for the worldwide
I'm thinkin' maybe we can open up the world's eyes
We spread the love, we spread the light
Awake in the morning, and lively at night
This is my mission 'til God say He's calling it done
I just speak through the strike and the call of the drum
[Shumba Ma**ai & Josiah Williams - Chorus:]
I feel it, feel it, feel it, feel now!
(From the soles of my feel to my crown)
I feel it, feel it, feel it, feel now!
(From the crown to my soul)
Plus vibes, yea, we pumpin' out light!
Plus tribe, yea we pumpin' out life! (x2)
[Josiah Willams - Verse 2:]
We are the flavor, we are the texture
We are the movement, we are the gesture
How do we manage the weight of the planet?
By staying who we are, that's fresh and organic
We are the substance, we are the color
We share a tropical love full of wonder
I'm living wisely. Vibrant and lively
Confident. Mighty. Zulu. Irie
I don't work a job, I work for the village
These are my people, and this is our business
Wonder why they think we made it big overnight
We were always around so we didn't reunite
Better get it right
We've got more power than the shot of a gun
Number one in God's eyes, so we're second to none
They just, pa** the baton and I'm ready to run
I just speak through the strike and the call of the drum
[Shumba Ma**ai & Josiah Williams - Chorus:]
I feel it, feel it, feel it, feel now!
(From the soles of my feel to my crown)
I feel it, feel it, feel it, feel now!
(From the crown to my soul)
Plus vibes, yea, we pumpin' out light!
Plus tribe, yea we pumpin' out life! (x2)
[Bridge:]
I feel it
(I feel it, I feel it)
(x8)
[Shumba Ma**ai & Josiah Williams - Chorus:]
I feel it, feel it, feel it, feel now!

Plus vibes, yea, we pumpin' out light!
Plus tribe, yea we pumpin' out life! (x2)
[Bridge:]
I feel it
(I feel it, I feel it)
