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

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
