The Alliance/The Stelow

[Intro]

Wah gwaan

Mm-hmm

(Qguam proper)

Hear it now

[Verse 1]

Stepped up in the spot got my people round me

Playa from the south straight from the 6

Talkbox singing through the wire when they found me

Jamaican breeze on my tongue when I mix

Proper Qguam that's the name they all know

Zulu drums knocking low through the floor

Beatbox breath in the pocket let it flow

Build the rhythm up then leave it wanting more

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah they feel it when I wind it slow

Softer bassline let the amapiano go

Every city claim the sound when I pass through

One name one voice one proper Qguam for you

[Chorus]

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Loud from Joburg to the Jamaican silence

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Rolling with the south that's the real alliance

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Beatbox in my throat talkbox in my palm

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

From the city to the town I stay calm

(Proper Qguam proper Qguam)

[Verse 2]

Detroit knuckles on the tabletop drumming

Atlanta grass where the bando hums

Found a broken bottle let the glass start humming

Turn the daylight into midnight chums

Backing vocals calling from a distant room

Echo my name like a quiet perfume

They can front they can watch they can assume

But the proof is in the pocket made of tune

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah they feel it when I wind it slow

Softer bassline let the amapiano go

Every city claim the sound when I pass through

One name one voice one proper Qguam for you

[Chorus]

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Loud from Joburg to the Jamaican silence

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Rolling with the south that's the real alliance

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Beatbox in my throat talkbox in my palm

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

From the city to the town I stay calm

(Proper Qguam proper Qguam)

[Bridge]

Say it low say it slow pass the word around

Every tongue every drum every broken ground

Put my name on the air let the speaker shake

Proper Qguam for the whole world to take

(For the whole world)

[Chorus]

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Loud from Joburg to the Jamaican silence

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Rolling with the south that's the real alliance

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

Beatbox in my throat talkbox in my palm

Proper Qguam proper Qguam

From the city to the town I stay calm

(Proper Qguam proper Qguam)
