Текст Matisyahu – Confidence

3 shots upon the sky
3 bluebirds flying high
3 sons remind me why
I ended up in crown heights

Confidence, you know you want it all
Believe in yourself
Even after the fall
I wish I knew that one
A long long time

Now when I walk in the street
Got that hop in my step
Chest out, head back
Yeah you know what I rep
I strut like a rasta
Though I’m being chased by death
I’ll be gone ’til whenever
Like the song by Wyclef

Listening to music
Always gave me vision
See me on the street
I’ll be walkin’ to the rhythm
Focus in my face
That’s the way I’m straight livin’
Champion heart
From the start to the beginning
I’ve been lookin’ for the palace
A crown and a throne
Click clack around Krakow
Typing on my phone
Tackling my demons

I like old things
Things that go slow
Antiques and such
So you know what I know
I’m an old soul
That’s the way I like to go
I’m thankful for the bumps, yeah
I like to feel the road
How can I defend against snakes and scorpions
Tryin’ to be your friends
But then they cut you in the end
I feel sleep movin’
Collapse and give up then I start again
How can I pretend

Confidence, you know you want it all
Believe in yourself
Even after the fall
I wish I knew that one
A long long time

Confidence, you know you want it all
Believe in yourself
Even after the fall
I wish I knew that one
A long long time tell you all how

Got it on the inside
Don’t need to wear it out
Can’t say I’m not religious
I just let go of the doubt
And right about now
I’ma let go of this trout
Whispering my pleas, I ain’t gotta be loud
Throw it in the sea, throw it back to the sea
Underneath the clouds
Yea you know what I mean
This is my silent scream
Doin’ as I please
I bless you with the ease
Why these dudes judgin’ me

Take a piece a herb and break it up, roll it up, take a draw to the head top.
Head nice, head nice, me a wine with de gyal dem a bounce to the one drop.
Everything nice, ting nice, everybody a vibes and me nuh waan hear no gun shot.
Pure vibes, good vibes, a weh some foolishness some people dem a come chat.
Some people a rate you, some people dem a hate you.
Some people a go through life and nah care bout nobody else you likkle bait you.
Me have de confidence fi keep strong, have de confidence fi hold on,
Bun out pestilence in all residence, read old testament from how long.
It’s not an easy road but we have fi live it.
Anything in life, put in all of your heart and mind and your soul,
Remember the greatest gift is love.

Confidence, you know you want it all
How can I walk tall?
With the critic in my head
Won’t let me rest ’til I’m small
How can I walk tall?
Confidence, critic in my head
Believe in yourself
With this critic in my head now
Won’t rest ’til I feel small
