Coolest Jewish Guy Since Jesus

I just love the faith-filled music of my Jewish brother Matisyahu.

His perfect blend of humanity, heartfelt lyrics, and smooth reggae, rock and blues rhythms is like pure honey to my spirit! He inspires me!

Enjoy.

"One Day"

Sometimes I lay
Under the moon
And thank God I'm breathing

Then I pray
Don't take me soon
Cause I'm here for a reason

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around

Because
All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
They'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day

It's not about
Win or lose
Because we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent
Blood drenched pavement

Keep on moving though the waters stay raging
In this maze you can lose your way (your way)
It might drive you crazy but don't let it faze you no way (no way)

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around

Because
All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
They'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day

One day this all will change
Treat people the same
Stop with the violence
Stop with the hate

One day we'll all be free
And proud to be
Under the same sun
Singing songs of freedom like

One day, one day

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
They'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day

Ooooooooooooooooooohhhhh...


Shalom!
