Matisyahu - Late Night In Zion lyrics
[Matisyahu - Late Night In Zion lyrics]
We're the reflection of imperfection
We come from the infinite place of limitation
Rejoice in these days, make a correction
We're the completion
Lights out, down for the count, can't get up
Meanwhile the enemy screams the boy is stuck
And the legs of the king
Are dangling in a rut
Falling pieces, lost sparks, hearts cut
We're not alone in the madness
If we're here, then so are you
Deepest caverns underground
We've been searching for the truth
Scrape my knees, on the hurdles
Face down in the puddles
The only one who'll get us out of this mess
The one who put us here
I've got a spear driven through my ear
Can't you hear the sound, crystal clear
Pistols smashing chandeliers
Long for brooks of water like the deer
A man is just a man
Filled of faults and weakness
For a young Jerusalem all
Alone and speechless
Nighttime, nobody's home
Roam streets in darkness
I feel I'm just a man, flesh and bones
Homeless
Planting seeds, they won't sink in
I'm dried up, like the desert earth
How could these seeds give birth
Water me down, liquify, I will not be cursed
From one into a million disperse
Wisdom rains like water from heaven to below
Crush my earth, seeds sow
Garden start to grow
You know you've got to rise
Though you like to flow
You can't keep staring out the window
Earth, water, wind
Fire we stay low while getting higher
Spark igniter, fighting tired
Stay wired, enlighten loads
Stay alive, weep wail chant, cry
Let out a sigh
Energized, give out my last dime
Life shouldn't pass me by
Rise to the occassion
Keep these hearts all blazin
Build your life on a river of wax
Melt into space, we've been
Here since the beginning, not going away
Not going away
We come from the infinite place of limitation
Rejoice in these days, make a correction
We're the completion
Lights out, down for the count, can't get up
Meanwhile the enemy screams the boy is stuck
And the legs of the king
Are dangling in a rut
Falling pieces, lost sparks, hearts cut
We're not alone in the madness
If we're here, then so are you
Deepest caverns underground
We've been searching for the truth
Scrape my knees, on the hurdles
Face down in the puddles
The only one who'll get us out of this mess
The one who put us here
I've got a spear driven through my ear
Can't you hear the sound, crystal clear
Pistols smashing chandeliers
Long for brooks of water like the deer
A man is just a man
Filled of faults and weakness
For a young Jerusalem all
Alone and speechless
Nighttime, nobody's home
Roam streets in darkness
I feel I'm just a man, flesh and bones
Homeless
Planting seeds, they won't sink in
I'm dried up, like the desert earth
How could these seeds give birth
Water me down, liquify, I will not be cursed
From one into a million disperse
Wisdom rains like water from heaven to below
Crush my earth, seeds sow
Garden start to grow
You know you've got to rise
Though you like to flow
You can't keep staring out the window
Earth, water, wind
Fire we stay low while getting higher
Spark igniter, fighting tired
Stay wired, enlighten loads
Stay alive, weep wail chant, cry
Let out a sigh
Energized, give out my last dime
Life shouldn't pass me by
Rise to the occassion
Keep these hearts all blazin
Build your life on a river of wax
Melt into space, we've been
Here since the beginning, not going away
Not going away
