Story behind the song
Written in one sitting after a late-night studio session in Kingston. The bassline came first — Family Man laid down four bars and the whole song built itself around that groove. The lyrics took two more weeks of refinement before they felt right.

[Verse 1] City lights are burning bright tonight Bass line dropping heavy through the night Dance floor calling, hear them speakers cry Let the music take you, let your spirit fly [Pre-chorus] Feel it in your bones now Feel it taking over Don't you stop, don't you slow down [Chorus] Move your body to the rhythm Feel the riddim in your chest This is more than just a song This is what we love the best [Verse 2] From the islands to the city street Every culture sharing the same beat Music brings us close like family That's the magic, that's the harmony
