Track Insight / Lyrics
Dusty old compass in my hand
Beaten up, weathered in the sand
One fateful night on a mountain peak
I stumbled upon a temple, ancient and meek
Steps worn down by countless feet
Guiding pilgrims to the seaside retreat
Shadows danced upon the stone
As I followed the fingerpost alone
Each rotation, a story told
Of those who sought the horizon's gold
In the silence I felt the call
Of a distant rhythm, rhythms, distant at all
Of drums and trumpets, primal and true
Echoes of a dream, an ancient "I'll get through"
With this compass in my heart
I'll navigate the dance, start to start
Through tropical nights, so hot and bright
With every step, I'll ignite
In winding alleys, heat of the night
I found a rythm, a sensual delight
Latin queens, with hips like vines
Tempted me to lose myself, to dive into the rhymes
We danced beneath the city's glow
As the compass spun, a story to show
In the moment I felt the beat
Of a tropical future, a future sweet
Of nights that would go on and on
In a celebration, sensual and strong
With this compass in my heart
I'll navigate the dance, start to start
Through tropical nights, so hot and bright
With every step, I'll ignite
Now the temple's secrets I hold
Within the compass, beneath the fold
Of its engravings, a cryptic clue
To follow the rhythm, in all I do
To let the heartbeat, of the land
Guide me, like the sun on sand
In the pulsing heat of a summer's night
The compass spins, a beacon of light
Through neon jungles, a pathway true
To the rhythms, for me and my crew
With this compass in my heart
I'll navigate the dance, start to start
Through tropical nights, so hot and bright
With every step, I'll ignite
Now the temple's secrets I've freed
In the compass, the beats I've read
With every step, I'll follow the call
Guided by the rhythm, where it stands tall
