[Intro]
(Peru beat, conga roll, hi-hat tick)
Shaku-shaku, dun-dun, hey!
Tung Tung Tengo step in — feel the heat, feel the sway.
Oya! (Eh!) Gbam! (Say!)
[Verse 1]
From the corner hustle, from the midnight grind,
Tung Tung Tengo carries fire in the spine.
Streetlights taught him rhythm, mama taught him pride,
Every scar a lesson, every mile a stride.
He walks like a lion, drum-sized courage in his chest,
Heavyweight heart, never settling for less.
Crowd gathers close when the bassline calls,
He moves like thunder — they call him big balls.
[Pre-Chorus]
Snap the conga, clap the hand, let the brass cut through the night,
High-hat tick, feel the kick, watch him own the spotlight.

[Verse 2]
He rose at dawn, hustled under neon skies,
Pocket full of dreams, fire burning in his eyes.
From the market to the stage, from the alley to the hall,
Every step was training — now he stands tall.
Swagger like a trumpet, rhythm in his soles,
He pays the price in sweat, reaping glory and goals.
They used to doubt the noise, now they dance to his calls,
Echo on the pavement — Tung Tung Tengo, big balls.

[Bridge 2 — Narrative Lift]
Remember the nights when the lights were low,
He kept one hope and a radio,
Sang to the moon, counted every fall,
Now the city answers to his call.
He honors the grind, the block, the old school walls,
Turns every doubt to a victory ball.
