Reservoir Lyrics

[Indistinct whispering]

[In background over intro]
"Of David. 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."

[Intro]
I just wanna talk to You now
This is for the One
You kept me alive
And so I thank You

[Verse 1]
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
How can I be like stars and sand?
It's only man who commands
He put this one in our hands
Two tabs of stone, I'm alone
These fans keep circling over the land
Helicopter blades, I crave some breeze
I wait for you will you wait for me
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 is on the floor

You think ya know so much
That I'm so out of touch now
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 they wanna chop this tree
Cut me down, pressure to concede

And give in to what y'all 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

[Guitar Solo]

Not gonna bring me to my knees no
Oh
I'm going down to come up
From the pits of מצרים
From the dungeon to the kingdom to my stage offering
I can't give up and I won't give in
I'm the blood of Jacob 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 now

[Outro]
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
