Lyrics of Jerusalem by Matisyahu In the ancient days, we will return with no delay Picking up the bounty and the spoils on our way We've been traveling from state to state And them don't understand what they say Three thousand years with no place to be They want me to give up my milk and honey Don't you see, it's not about the land or the sea Not the country but the dwelling of his majesty Jerusalem, if I forget you Fire not gonna come from me tongue Jerusalem, if I forget you Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do Jerusalem, if I forget you Fire not gonna come from me tongue Jerusalem, if I forget you Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do Said, ah, rebuild the temple and the crown of glory Years gone by, about sixty We were burned in the oven in this century And the gas tried to choke, but it couldn't choke me Will not lie down, I will not fall asleep So they come overseas, yeah they're trying to be free Erase the demons out of our memory Change your name and your identity Afraid of the past and our dark history Why is everybody always chasing we? Cut off the roots from your family tree Don't you know that's not the way to be 1 | Page Lyrics of Jerusalem by Matisyahu (cont’d) Jerusalem, if I forget you Fire not gonna come from me tongue Jerusalem, if I forget you Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do Jerusalem, if I forget you Fire not gonna come from me tongue Jerusalem, if I forget you Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do Said they caught up in their ways, and the world's gone craze Them don't know it's just a phase, case of the Simon says If I forget the truth, my words won't penetrate Babylon burning in the place, can't see through the haze Chop down all of them dirty ways That's the price that you pay for selling lies to the youth No way, not ok, there's no way, not ok Ain't no one gonna break my stride Ain't no one gonna pull me down Oh no, I got to keep on moving Ain't no one gonna break my stride Ain't no one gonna pull me down Oh no, I got to keep on moving, say Jerusalem, if I forget you Fire not gonna come from me tongue Jerusalem, if I forget you Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do Jerusalem, if I forget you Fire not gonna come from me tongue 2 | Page Jerusalem, if I forget you Let my right hand forget what it's supposed to do Jerusalem, if I forget you Jerusalem, if I forget you Jerusalem, if I forget you Jerusalem, if I forget you Written by Gregory Prestopino, Ivan Corraliza, Jimmy Douglass, Matthew Miller, Matthew Wilder • Copyright © The Bicycle Music Company, BMG Rights Management US, LLC 3 | Page .
