One Step Away



Lyrics

People think that dance music is superficial
But they've got it all wrong
The dance floor is not just a place, it's a threshold
A ritualistic space where movement replaces language

One step away from your freedom
One breath away from the dance of blood
One step away from your heartbeat
One step away, yeah, you're one step away

Even in the shadows where there's nowhere lеft to hide
Nighttime comes bеfore the dawn
It's salvation, all God's children can be saved
We're all waiting for our freedom

One step away

We're one step away
We're one step away
We're one step away
We're one step away
We're one step away
We're one step away
We're one step away
We're one step away

All the violence and the trauma you survived
Nobody's praying until they're broken
I'm feeling your silence and your drama deep inside
We're all waiting for that freedom

Don't wait, take it
Don't wait, take it
Don't wait, take it
Don't wait, take it
Take your freedom
