Matisyahu - Reservoir lyrics
[Matisyahu - Reservoir lyrics]
"Of David do not compete with the
Wicked do not envy those
Who commit injustice for like grass
They will soon wither
Like green vegetation trust in the Lord
And do good, then you will abide in the
Land and be nourished by
Faith delight in the Lord, and He
Will guard your desires and needs
And take care of you you reveal
Your righteousness like a light
And your judgments are on high depend on
The Lord and hope for Him
Compete not with the prosperous
With the man who invents evil schemes
Let go of anger
Abandon rage do not compete with one
Who intends only to harm
For the evildoers will be cut down but
Those who hope in the Lord
They will inherit the earth"
I just wanna talk to You now
This is for the One you kept me alive
And so I thank You
Moses is on his way down town
Yoshua maintaining the fountain
Right about now I should be over Chicago
Lights out the window levee breaks
Flow like diamonds
All these babies crying, ideas flying around
It’s time to come down from the mountain
Welcome home, just stick to the plan
How can I be like stars and sand?
It's only man who commands
He put this one in our hands
Two tabs of stone, I'm alone
These fans keep circling over the land
Helicopter blades, I crave some breeze
I wait for you will you wait for me
Wait for me please
Forty days and forty nights
But I can't stand much more
So you think you understand
What’s pure and impure?
Now it's pouring my soul is on the floor
You think ya know so much
That I'm so out of touch now
I tossed in the crutch to the אֵשׁ תָּמִיד
I walk with a limp with a wound that bleeds
While all these animals feed with
Their envy and greed
Smoke marijuana seed they wanna
Chop this tree
Cut me down, pressure to concede
And give in to what y'all believe is me
But I'ma fight, I'm a light
I'm the glory of the King
I'm the song that you sing
The melody that you bring
Sharp teeth and venom that stings
Not gonna bring me to my knees
I'm a fish in this here sea
Evil eye won't get at me
I just want to finish this thing
Not gonna bring me to my knees no oh
I'm going down to come up
From the pit's of מצרים
From the dungeon to the kingdom
To my stage offering
I can't give up and I won't give in
I'm the blood of Jacob I'll keep struggling
Like Joseph, my brothers wanna sell me out
I had the dream, time to leave the doubt
Multicolored coat with blood on my sleeves
Best believe it ain't from no beasts
Got no car i walked around this reservoir
This is David’s heart, rainbow-colored cry
From the end to the start now
This is David’s heart
A rainbow-colored cry from the
End to the start
Phantoms and ghosts
Raise your glass and make a toast
This is for the One שהחינו
הקדוש ברוך הוא what we been through
Me and you
Wicked do not envy those
Who commit injustice for like grass
They will soon wither
Like green vegetation trust in the Lord
And do good, then you will abide in the
Land and be nourished by
Faith delight in the Lord, and He
Will guard your desires and needs
And take care of you you reveal
Your righteousness like a light
And your judgments are on high depend on
The Lord and hope for Him
Compete not with the prosperous
