Kente Sunset

[Intro]
[Verse]
Golden sand between my toes
Where the warm water flows
Nana sits beneath the tree
Telling stories just for me
Kente cloth in the breeze
Moving with the greatest ease
Yellow, red, and emerald green
Brightest colors ever seen
[Pre-Chorus]
Smell the tilapia on the fire
Lift the rhythm even higher
Every hand begins to clap
Put the village on the map
Can you feel the djembe sound?
Shaking all the dusty ground
[Chorus]
Dance under the kente sunset
Best day that we’ve had yet
Oh-oh, the harvest is here
Oh-oh, we’re casting out fear
Barefoot on the golden ground
Love is all that can be found
[Post-Chorus]
(Call: Are you ready?)
(Response: We are one!)
(Call: Under the kente?)
(Response: Under the sun!)
(Call: Is it harvest?)
(Response: Everyone!)
[Verse]
Mama brings the spicy pepper
No one does it any better
Grandpa starts the djembe beat
Feel the fire in your feet
Silver scales on the grill
Time is standing perfectly still
Neighbors come from miles away
Just to celebrate the day
[Pre-Chorus]
Smell the tilapia on the fire
Lift the rhythm even higher
Every hand begins to clap
Put the village on the map
Can you feel the djembe sound?
Shaking all the dusty ground
[Chorus]
Dance under the kente sunset
Best day that we’ve had yet
Oh-oh, the harvest is here
Oh-oh, we’re casting out fear
Barefoot on the golden ground
Love is all that can be found
[Bridge]
From the soil to the sea
Blessing every family
Young and old, hand in hand
Guardians of this holy land
Woven threads, red and gold
Stories that will ne'er grow old
We give thanks for the grain
We give thanks for the rain
[Hook]
Clap your hands (Clap-clap)
Move your soul (Move-move)
Keep the circle (Whole-whole)
Shekere rhythm (Gold-gold)
Clap your hands (Clap-clap)
Move your soul (Move-move)
This is how we stay whole
[Chorus]
Dance under the kente sunset
Best day that we’ve had yet
Oh-oh, the harvest is here
Oh-oh, we’re casting out fear
Barefoot on the golden ground
Love is all that can be found
[Post-Chorus]
(Call: Are you ready?)
(Response: We are one!)
(Call: Under the kente?)
(Response: Under the sun!)
(Call: Is it harvest?)
(Response: Everyone!)
