Matisyahu – Late night in zion
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,
Srape 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 dear
[Chorus:]
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
[2x]
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 reigns 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
[Chorus]
