Matisyahu - Watch the Walls Melt Down lyrics

rate me

(Chorus)

Watch the walls melt down

Watch them fade away

Throw my hands to the sky

I watch the walls melt down

Watch them fade away

I took my freedom back

I packed up the knapsack

I'm not cracked yet

(Verse)

Today is my day, I turned 34

I live by the moon, in the shade for real

Left side, victory is near

Broken circles, incomplete dreams

In the box, out the box, covered in tar

But I'll always be your Chassidic reggae superstar

Breaking out, listening close

Dancing on tables with my hands in the air

Initials "M.M.," lead from within

In a box in the sky, flying over the night

Coast to coast, continents, small world

End of the world, or maybe I'm trippin

Flashing lights, wings spread

I don't want your answers anymore

I'm headed for the door, I live for the core

(Chorus x2)

Watch the walls melt down

Watch them fade away

Throw my hands to the sky

I watch the walls melt down

Watch them fade away

I took my freedom back

I packed up the knapsack

I'm not cracked yet

(Verse)

I'm on a night walk where talk is cheap

The reaper's close and the willows weep

And they wail, try and fail, you will win one day

If I may raise my soul from purgatory

And go dance on a wave

While the people wave and the mountains raise

Speak, the truth must come from a slave

Smoked more trees then a forest fire

'Til that ish got tired, now I let the ish retire

Gettin higher than a mountain climber, lower than a lawn mower

Chopping down the cypher, circle up, it's circle time

Stiff neck with aches in my spine

Weak from the smoke and I'm tired from the wine

Energy, come back to me, now come back

Take time, what's mine, claim my place and my name

Moonlight shines in your eyes

(Chorus x2)

Watch the walls melt down

Watch them fade away

Throw my hands to the sky

I watch the walls melt down

Watch them fade away

I took my freedom back

I packed up the knapsack

I'm not cracked yet

(Outro)

Watch the walls melt down
