Fire Of Heaven / Altar Of Earth Lyrics - Singles - Matisyahu

Fire descends on high in the shape of a lion, 

Burn the sacrifice of pride and ride on to Mount Zion, 

Fire descends on high in the shape of a lion, 

Burn the sacrifice of pride and ride on to Mount Zion, 

Rub me the wrong way, taking the highway Rubbing sticks together but your fire's man-made 

Capitalize on hot air, soar like an airplane 

Yearn to rise in the sky quick high like cocaine 

False pride is suicide but you've got nothing to gain 

Babylon's buildings raise like flames 

Drowning in their champagne 

Explosion pulled the pin in the hand grenade 

Soul stain blowing up 

In your own domain 

Fire crackers ooh and aah 

But they never maintain 

Fires burning 

Flames are dancing 

Don't burn the house down 

Heavenly fire only resides on an altar made from the ground 

Fire descends from on high in the shape of a lion 

Burn the sacrifice of pride and ride on to Mount Zion 

Fire descends on high in the shape of a lion 

Burn the sacrifice of pride and ride on to Mount Zion 

One pair of eyes 

But see two different things 

One person cries but the other one sings 

You walk around like everybody owes you something . Take what you got, thank G-d for all that life brings 

The poor man has it all but not content with anything 

While the rich man's hands are empty but he's sitting like a king 

Fires burning 

Flames are dancing 

Don't burn the house down 

Heavenly fire only resides on an altar made from the ground 

Backpacks's getting heavy, moving at a steady pace Carry bricks on your shoulders and lead around your waist 

Making way, run in haste 

There is no time to taste what you ate 

We should be grateful Got a plateful 

Fire burns like ice morsels falling fire like rain 

Fire descends on high in the shape of a lion 

Burn the sacrifice of pride and ride on to Mount Zion 

Fire descends on high in the shape of a lion 

Burn the sacrifice of pride and ride on to Mount Zion
