Reservoir Lyrics - Akeda - Matisyahu

"Of David.Annotate 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 

But how can I be like the stars and sand? 

It's only man who commands 

He put this one in our hands 

Two tabs of stone, I'm alone while these fans keep circling 

Over the land like helicopter blades, I crave some breeze 

Will you wait, 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 on the floor 

You think ya know so much, that I'm so out of touch 

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 

Wanna chop this tree 

Cut me down, pressure to concede 

And give in to what they 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 

I'm going down, down to go up 

From the pits to מצרים, from the dungeon to the kingdom 

To my stage offering, can't give up and won't give in 

I am the blood of Jacob and 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, 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
