Shift the Weight

Heavy where? Shift it.

Kick comes clean, then I move the floor One small cut,

now it weighs much more You count four I bend three Then

the bass hits sideways where your balance used to be Step light

Drop low Push left Let go You keep waiting for the heavy

part I move the weight before it starts

Shift—

The weight.

Shift— Make it—

Shift the weight!

Make the whole room levitate!

Shift the weight!

Let the low end rearrange the state!

Left side Right side Nothing lands the same tonight!

Shift the weight!

Make the whole room levitate!

Where’s the heavy hit?

— Somewhere else.

You came ready with a measured step

I came loose with a little less You hit one I hit

late Then I drag the bassline through the empty space

Short

phrase Long pull Soft voice

Hard push

You keep trying to plant your feet

I keep moving underneath

Shift—

The weight— Shift— Levitate.

Shift the weight!

Make the whole room levitate!

Shift the weight! Pull the pressure through the gate!

Late word

Early bass

Change the body, change the place!

Shift the weight! Make the whole room levitate!

You thought heavy meant loud.

That was adorable.

Shift?

— Weight!

Room?

— Lift!

Kick?

— Late!

Bass? Split! Shift the weight!

Make the whole room levitate!

Shift the weight! Let the low end mutate!

Cut the air Move the ground Make the wrong side feel profound!

Shift—shift—

The weight! Whole room— Levitate!

If the floor feels wrong,

it’s finally right.
