Desert Storm

[Intro: Mysterious female vocal hums without words, oriental flute, deep bass rumble] [Spoken softly with echo: "Come... follow the sound..."] [Verse 1] The sun is bleeding on the golden sand I hear a rhythm from a distant land The night is calling and the moon is high Just let the drums take us up to the sky [Pre-Chorus] Ya habibi, feel the bass Moving through this holy space [Chorus – Powerful, hypnotic] Dance, dance on the Nile tonight Fire in our souls, we're burning bright Hands up high like a desert storm Egyptian groove in a modern form Woah-oh-oh, Leila, Leila Pulse of the East, getting stronger Woah-oh-oh, Leila, Leila Dance until we breathe no longer [Drop – Instrumental, darbuka + bass + electric guitar stabs] [Verse 2] The pharaohs move inside the laser light A punk rock kick with a house bass bite Forget your worries, leave them at the door We're ancient souls but we came for more [Pre-Chorus] Ya habibi, feel the bass Let the rhythm save this place [Chorus – Full energy, guitars crash] Dance, dance on the Nile tonight Fire in our souls, we're burning bright Hands up high like a desert storm Egyptian groove in a modern form Woah-oh-oh, Leila, Leila Pulse of the East, getting stronger Woah-oh-oh, Leila, Leila Dance until we breathe no longer [Verse 3 – Softer, mystical, almost whispered] I see the stars falling into your eyes A secret language under desert skies My hips move slow, then the bass goes deep Awakening the goddess that you keep [Pre-Chorus – Building tension] Ya habibi, don't think twice Let the venom taste like spice [Chorus – Slightly varied, higher intensity] Dance, dance on the Nile tonight Fire in our souls, we're burning bright Hands up high like a desert storm Egyptian groove in a modern form Woah-oh-oh, Leila, Leila Pulse of the East, getting stronger Woah-oh-oh, Leila, Leila Dance until we breathe no longer [Verse 4 – Ritualistic, commanding] The drums are gods and my voice is fire Every step takes you higher and higher Forget your name, forget the time Tonight the Nile will make you mine [Bridge – Breakdown, only female humming + claps + bass drum] Mmm... just the claps... Mmm... feel the map... (Bass kick enters) Breathe... (WHOOP!) [Drop 2 – Maximum drive, full power] [Outro – Magical, fading] Woah-oh-oh... Leila... Dance... on the Nile... (Whispered: "Habibi...") [Fade out with flute and bass drum]
