The first strum

It always gets me

Then the unmistakeable beat of the kick drum

The pulsing thump thump thump

Mirroring my heart

I feel it swell

The excitement

That energy

How could anyone deny it

It just feels right

I feel the blood coursing through my veins

Channelling the passion

Goosebumps cover the skin on my arms

I feel the sweat coming

Then the breeze

It cools me

Excites me

I shake from the energy building

It all comes together

My legs just want to jump

I want to scream

I want to dance

I want to sing

I punch the air

Anything to let this energy out

I adore it

Nothing is better than when you are living your art

When I snatch that microphone and speak to the crowd

Speak to their soul

We’re together now

One whole

Even without the crowd

Just the band

Just me and him

Just me and her

Just me

It’s the same

The force is unstoppable 

We dance to the beat

Feeling the music

It drives our bodies

Our spirit

It is the purest form

Embrace it

Sing

Scream

Jump

Dance

Life was made for it

You are alive
