[Freestylin'] 

{Zee} You're all that I have and you're all that I need 
Each and every day I pray to get to know your peace 
Wanna be close to you, yes I'm so hungry 
You're like water for my soul when it gets thirsty 
Without you there's no me 
You're the air that I breathe 
{Say} Sometimes the world is dark and I just can't see 
With these, demons surround all around to bring me down to negativity 
But I believe, yes I believe, I said I believe 
I'll stand on my own two feet 
Won't be brought down on one knee 
I'll fight with all of my might and get these demons to flee 
Hashem's rays fire blaze burn bright and I believe 
Hashem's rays fire blaze burn bright and I believe 
Out of darkness comes light, twilight unto the heights 
Crown Heights {yah} burnin' up all through the twilight 
Said, thank you to my God, now I finally got it right 
And I'll fight with all of my heart, and all a' my soul, and all a' my might 

[Chorus:]2x 
What's this feeling? 
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling 
(I give/Givin'} myself to you {now} from the essence of my being 
And I sing to my God, songs of love and healing 
I want Moshiach now, time it starts revealing 
What's this feeling? 
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling 
(I give/Givin'} myself to you {now} from the essence of my being 
And I sing to my God, songs of love and healing 
I want Moshiach now. {ya} 

Stripin' away the layers and reveal your soul 
Ya gotta to give yourself up and then you become whole 
You're a slave to yourself and you don't even know 
(You) Want to live the fast life but your brain moves slow 
If you're trying to stay high, you're bound to stay low 
You want God but you (can't/couldn't} deflate your ego 
You're already there, then there's nowhere to go 
You're cup's already full then it's bound to overflow 
If you're drowning in the waters and you can't stay afloat 
Ask Hasheem for mercy {and} he'll throw you a rope 
(You're) lookin' for help from God; you say he couldn't be found 
Searching up to the sky and looking beneath the ground 
Like a King without his Crown 
You keep fallin' down 
You really want to live but can't get rid of your frown 
You('re) try(in') to reach unto the heights and wound bound down on the ground 
Given up your pride - then ya heard a sound 
Out of night comes day {and} out of day comes light 
{said} Nullified to the One like sunlight in a ray, 
(Makin'/Make} room for his love for a fire gone blaze, 
(Make/Makin'} room for his love for a fire gone blaze, 

[Chorus:]2x 
What's this feeling? 
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling 
(I give/Givin'} myself to you {now} from the essence of my being 
and I sing to my God, songs of love and healing 
I want Moshiach now so it's time we start revealing 

What's this feeling? 
My love will rip a (hole/skylight} in the ceiling 
(I give/Givin'} myself to you now from the essence of my being 
And I sing to my God, songs of love and healing 
(I want Moshiach now) 

{Yah yah, yah yah yo yah yah...} 

[guitar solo] 

{..yo.. [x13]} 

{And} See, I lift up (my/mine} eyes where my help come from 
And I seen it circling around from the mountain 
Thunder! 
You feel it in your chest 
You keep my mind at ease and my soul at rest 
You're not vexed 

{When I} Look to the sky where my help come from 
{and I} Seen it circling around from the mountain 
Thunder! 
You feel it in your chest 

(You keep my mind at ease and my soul at rest 
You're not vexed 
[freestylin']) 

{Ziggy-yiggy-yo viggy-yiggy-yo 
Said Thunder! 
You feel it in your, I feel it in your, 
Thunder! 
You feel it in your, I feel it in your, 
Thunder! 
You feel it in your, I feel it in your, 
Yo ho ho..ah! 
... 
Woo! 

What's this feeling? 
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling 
Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being 
Sing to my God {wah, ha ha..] 

Zee wah yo 
Zee wah yo ho.. 
Ho yo.. 
Zyeh yo ho ho 
Yah! 
...}
