Suddenly

It hits without warning
It hits without a sign
One moment I'm standing
The next I'm not fine
Something starts rising
Deep under my skin
Warmth spreads through my body
From outside within

My legs are getting heavy
My head starts to float
It wraps around my body
It grabs me by the throat
It feels so good to let go
It feels so right
But something inside screams
Hold on tight

Pleasure pulling one way
Fear pulling back
My body says surrender
My mind says no, stop, wait
Don't let go
You might not come back
Don't let go
Stay on track
But then

Kick
Kick
Kick
909 Hi-hat
Short, sharp, clean
Kick drum hits my chest
Like nothing in between
Bass crawls through my body
Low, slow, deep
I don't know where I'm going

I don't wanna leave
The beat takes over
The sound wins

I stop fighting

It begins

I am not here anymore
I am just bass
I am just kick
I am just space
I become the dance floor
I become the beat
Nothing else matters
Underneath my feet
Underneath my feet
