Lyrics Matisyahu – Bal Shem Tov
Text:
On a day when a man was born, up from one world to another
I don’t know who you are, even when we face each other
When I wake up I know you’re here this is everything you’ve done
I’ve got nothing to fear cause the battle’s already been won.
Chorus: x2
This is the time of divine favor
Sublime love cuts like a razor
Burning up our fear and pain
Ascend in fire like a laser beam
Search heaven and the seven seas
The answer lies inside you
You know it won’t come easy
You’ve got to find your own truth
When I returned to the lower garden
I saw many souls living and dead
Rushing back and forth one world to the next
The joy was to great for ears to hear
or for the words to express
all will been forgiven for stolen time and debts
ask me to come with them cause of the glory
and contiplation I been given eyes to see
looking for a prophet to accompany me, but
alone I must go on my own with my very own
set of wings I reached the highest heights
knocking on the door of the King of Kings
Chorus x2
Its your life, I cant live it for you
Its your time to give, I cant give it for you
Its your fear to lose, I cant lose it for you
Death or Life so you choose and I put both before you
x2
Chorus x2
