Can U Dance (To My Beat)

As we dance to a beat that seems out of time

To the one you feel in the metronome of your mind

Does it offend you that our rhythm looks strange

Or causes your thinking to be rearranged?

Could it be that you would understand this beat to which we dance

More clearly had you been given a chance

So as you struggle to find the feel with your feet?

Ask yourself, can you dance to my beat, beat, beat, beat, beat, beat, beat?

(Dance)

Can you dance to my beat?

With this beat we dance, we know we've passed the test

The freedom we feel in our soul

We dance to learn those lessons as our story continues to unfold

Our beats, our words, our melodies, our gifts

From the givers of those gifts

We're merely the terminals through which they have passed

So as you struggle to catch the rhythm with your feet

Ask yourself

Can you dance to my beat, beat, beat, beat, beat

Beat, beat, beat, beat, beat, beat, beat?

(Dance)

Can you dance to my beat?
