Roll The Yard

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I came in with the drum talk Dust on my shoes, quick turn, then I walk Palm-wire twang on the corner cut clean You know the whole room leans when I breathe Small steps, but I move like flash Jollof heat in the grin I flash Hands up when the snare goes skrr One taste and the whole place swerves [Pre-Chorus] Hold it now Let it breathe Clap on the gap Then call me in Pad in the sky Bass in the chest We rise, we rise Then we leap [Chorus] Roll the yard Roll the yard We don't stop, we roll the yard Roll the yard Roll the yard Clap them hands and roll the yard (Ooh, roll it) (Ooh, roll it) Bassline bites and the whole crowd spark Roll the yard Roll the yard We don't stop, we roll the yard [Verse 2] I set the pace with a sideways grin Feet talk sharp when the kick rolls in Ghana on the pulse, London in the swing Old-school garage with a bright new ring Call out loud, let the name ring back Lead voice high, then the doubles stack Every little word gets a tail and fade One more turn and the doubts get swayed [Pre-Chorus] Hold it now Let it breathe Clap on the gap Then call me in Pad in the sky Bass in the chest We rise, we rise Then we leap [Chorus] Roll the yard Roll the yard We don't stop, we roll the yard Roll the yard Roll the yard Clap them hands and roll the yard (Ooh, roll it) (Ooh, roll it) Bassline bites and the whole crowd spark Roll the yard Roll the yard We don't stop, we roll the yard [Bridge] [Drop fake-out] Shh—cut it back Let the room hold tight One breath, one clap Then the low end slides Reverse spin, and the roof goes wide I say the word and the dark turns bright Now, now, now We rise [Chorus] Roll the yard Roll the yard We don't stop, we roll the yard Roll the yard Roll the yard Clap them hands and roll the yard (Ooh, roll it) (Ooh, roll it) Bassline bites and the whole crowd spark Roll the yard Roll the yard We don't stop, we roll the yard
