Matisyahu - Warrior lyrics
[Matisyahu - Warrior lyrics]
You're a warrior fighting for your soul
Taken from the world above and
Brought down the world below
You're the son of his majesty
Remember how it used to be
In the light of day it's easy to see
Now it's nighttime you had to leave
Separated from the king
Now the water's rushing and you keep
Trying to swim against the stream
And it seems
Like your not moving the many water's
Gushing you gasp for air
Almost drowning ears ringing
Once upon a time we were singing
One day the trees will stand and clap hands
Stream of thought getting caught
In the klipa, this place is just a shell
External egos swell, that one'll burn ya, we
Fell a long way down
That eternal frown'll get you
You look vexed it's the dregs
The yetzer hara's lurking
Trying to make you forget we got a job to do
You're a priest and a prince
And you can't be moved
You're a warrior, Fighting for your soul
Taken from a world above
And brought down to a world below
Re-united, re-united return the princess
To the king, re-united, re-united
She's been taken for so long
Re-united, re-united and then she'll
Be filled with joy
Re-united, re-united like the days
Of her youth
Descended to the pit
What's this feeling can't get rid of it
Soul sick can't seem to shake it
When one retires at night weeping
Joy will come in the morning
You made my mountain stand strong
You're a warrior, Fighting for your soul
Taken from a world above
And brought down to a world below
Re-united, re-united return the princess
To the king, re-united, re-united
She's been taken for so long
Re-united, re-united and then she'll
Be filled with joy
Re-united, re-united like the days
Of her youth
Like and ancient memory
Remember how it used to be
Close your eyes and breath in
That's the scent of freedom
Ringing across the sea
Land of milk and honey
One day will wake up from this
Dream and we'll stop sleeping
Oh, yo, then we'll see clearly
You're a warrior, Fighting for your soul
Taken from a world above
And brought down to a world below
Re-united, re-united return the princess
To the king, re-united, re-united
She's been taken for so long
Re-united, re-united and then she'll
Be filled with joy
Re-united, re-united like the days
Of her youth
Taken from the world above and
Brought down the world below
You're the son of his majesty
Remember how it used to be
In the light of day it's easy to see
Now it's nighttime you had to leave
Separated from the king
Now the water's rushing and you keep
Trying to swim against the stream
And it seems
Like your not moving the many water's
Gushing you gasp for air
Almost drowning ears ringing
Once upon a time we were singing
One day the trees will stand and clap hands

In the klipa, this place is just a shell
External egos swell, that one'll burn ya, we
Fell a long way down

Trying to make you forget we got a job to do
You're a priest and a prince
And you can't be moved
You're a warrior, Fighting for your soul

And brought down to a world below
Re-united, re-united return the princess
To the king, re-united, re-united
