Lyrics Matisyahu – Star On The Rise
Text:
Lace ’em up, shadow boxing in the basement, speed bag
Time to land the spaceship
Heavy hitter, duckin’ punches, fightin’ the enemy
Who is the enemy? Can I survive me?
I’m goin’ in, I’m goin’ under
Touch like lightning, roar like thunder
My legs are shaky — will I make it?
I can’t lie anymore, I can’t fake it
No more runnin’, I can’t take it
Crack open, learn to take it
Pullin’ the rake over my heart, I can taste it
Going in circles, return to the burn
Am I moving forward? What have I learned?
Give glory to the heavens and the earth
I walk the dirt and flirt with death
Taste the breath of the devil while you move with the rest
More or less it’s time we score
We won this test so let your chest take a rest
And let your breath be the sound
That lets us nest in the sound and then drowns in the now
It’s the light of the first 6 days of creation
How far can you go?
Touch like lightning, roar like thunder
My legs are shaky — will I make it?
I can’t lie anymore, I can’t fake it
No more runnin’, I can’t take it
Crack open, learn to take it
Pullin’ the rake over my heart, I can taste it
Going in circles, return to the burn
Am I moving forward? What have I learned?
Give glory to the heavens and the earth
I walk the dirt and flirt with death
Taste the breath of the devil while you move with the rest
More or less it’s time we score
We won this test so let your chest take a rest
And let your breath be the sound
That lets us nest in the sound and then drowns in the now
It’s the light of the first 6 days of creation
How far can you go?
Flames on the horizon
Them keep realizing
There’s a star on the rise again
Flames on the horizon
Them keep realizing
There’s a star on the rise again
I try to keep my focus in this field of locusts
Many winds blowin’ but that’s all hocus pocus
Decipher the truth from the lie
Especially in regards to how it lies upon the inside
Quick now tell the guards
I’ll be running with no pauses
I write to ignite dead souls that’s my cause
Drop like the jaws, feel the fury from my claws
10 years gone by, I been out on tours
Especially in regards to how it lies upon the inside
Quick now tell the guards
I’ll be running with no pauses
I write to ignite dead souls that’s my cause
Drop like the jaws, feel the fury from my claws
10 years gone by, I been out on tours
Flames on the horizon
Them keep realizing
There’s a star on the rise again
Flames on the horizon
Them keep realizing
There’s a star on the rise again
Flames on the horizon
Them keep realizing
There’s a star on the rise again
Flames on the horizon
Them keep realizing
There’s a star on the rise again
