Confidence Songtext

von Matisyahu

Three shots upon the sky
Three bluebirds flying high
Three sons remind me why
I ended up in Crown Heights

Confidence, you know you want it all
Believe in yourself even after the fall
I wish I knew that one a long, long time

Now when I walk in the street
I got that hop in my step
Chest out, head back
Yeah, you know what I rep

I strut like a Rasta
Though I'm being chased by death
I'll be gone till whenever
Like the song by Wyclef1

Listening to music
Always gave me vision
See me on the street
I'll be walking to the rhythm

Focusing my face
That's the way I'm straight living
Champion heart
From the start to the beginning

I've been looking for the palace
A crown and a thrown
Click clack around Krakow
Typing on my phone

Tackling my demons
But you know that by now
Hasidic reggae superstar
Tell you all how

Got it on the inside
Don't need to wear it out
Can't say I'm not religious
I just let go of the doubt
Right about now, hey, ey

I like old things, things that go slow
Antiques and such so you know what I know
I'm an old soul, that's the way I like to go
I'm thankful for the bumps
Yeah, I like to feel the road

How can I defend against snakes and scorpions
Trying to be your friends
But then they cut you in the end
Feeling sleep moving in
Collapse and give up, then I start again
How can I pretend?

Confidence, you know you want it all
Believe in yourself even after the fall
I wish I knew that one a long, long time

Confidence, you know you want it all
Believe in yourself even after the fall
I wish I knew that one a long, long time

Tell you all how
Got it on the inside
Don't need to wear it out
You say I'm not religious
I just let go of the doubt

And right about now
I'm a let go of this trout
Whispering my pleas, I ain't gotta be loud
Throw it in the sea, throw it back to the sea
Underneath the clouds,
Yeah, you know what I mean
This is my silent scream, doing as I please
I bless you with the ease
Why these dudes judging me

Rap by Collie Buddz
Take a piece of herb
And break it up, roll it up
Take a draw to the head top
Head nice, head nice
Me a wine with da gyal
Dem a bounce to the one drop
Everything nice, ting nice
Everybody a vibes and me
Nuh wan hear no gun shot
Pure vibes, good vibes
A weh some foolishness
Some people dem a come chat
Some people a rate you
Some people dem hate you
Some people go through life
And nah care bout nobody else
You likkle bait you
Me have de confidence
Fi keep strong
Have de confidence
Fi hold on
Bun out pestilence
In all Residence
Read old testament
From how long

It's not an easy road but we have to live it
Anything in life,
Putting all of your heart and mind and your soul
Remember the greatest gift is love

Confidence, you know you want it all
I'm gonna walk tall with the critic in my head
Won't rest ‘till I'm small
How can I walk tall

Confidence, critic in my head now
Believe in yourself
With this critic in my head now
Won't rest ‘till I feel small
