Matisyahu - Dispatch The Troops Lyrics

Lyrics Dispatch The Troops - Matisyahu



Daughter of Zion
Once precious princess
Left her father′s house
To walk streets that never rest
Maybe they'll hear me in the metropolis
So I′m sending out an SOS
Fighting with her Ta
She wants out of this mess
And those big city lights
Might brighten up the darkness
You know that I'm tired and you know that I'm stressed
You can′t stop me and you can′t stop this
You could call the police try to make an arrest
Today is the day that I repossess
Leaving on the first bus that I can get
Now its rings around the eyes sopping wet from rain droplets
Window shopping for some solace
No address and penniless
That's the price that you pay for running away from the stress
Feeling the pain likes the dance by the DJ
Reminds me of a time when things were ok
Frightened by her own shadow
Now she wants to go home
Many names for the one God
Trotting on, though the façade
You were all my children
Got a dig for that feeling
Love will break through the concealment
Strip away the serpent′s skin
We came to win
Dispatch the troops
Send out the captain
My gem is held captive in the dungeon
Don't come back again until you end the mission
If it takes a long time
Don′t lose the vision
If you're stuck
Check the blueprint
Look within
Reflection
Got to find the rhythm
Won′t you please return child
Where you been?
She says I can't come home because he won't let me in
And besides we don′t need no more friction
Used to look so nice, how′d you get so thin?
With a heart like ice, it's a heart of sin
Skin white like a ghost with a pale complexion
Pray to God for the dead we need resurrection
Don′t you know wherever you go thick and thin
You are still my children
Since you've been gone my soul′s been hurting
Frightened by her own shadow
Now she wants to go home
Many names for one God
Trotting on, though the façade
You were all my children
Got a dig for that feeling
Love will break down this concealment
Like confident heathen from jack the coat tail
Singing to the top to refill the temple
Jumping up and down, up in a circle
Like a city kid in grounds at the brothel
Singing to the top to refill the temple
Jumping up and down, up in a circle
We want redemption now let's get out of the exile
Man was rock sucking a wall lying Porsche drawn out
The mass star standing demanding
And pop landing on his forehead
Wondering why his companion went into hiding
We spend all trunk through the summer children can′t impede impress and kisses up
You phone the brother long
You keep knocking but there's nobody home
You can knock knock knock but there's nobody home, oh oh oh
Wandering through this world
We are all just boys and girls
Many names for one God
Trotting on, through the façade
You were all my children
Got a dig for that feeling
Love will break down this concealment
