[length: 04:03]
[00:17.90]from the forest itself comes the handle for the axe
[00:22.88]split this wilderness listen up this aint where its at
[00:27.56]clear a path so that you can find your way back
[00:32.09]chop em down chop em down
[00:34.44]chop em down chop em down
[00:37.18]time flies by like clouds passing in the sky
[00:41.42]lifetimes here then gone with the blink of an eye
[00:46.15]march through the desert one step at a time
[00:50.66]march through the desert one step at a time
[00:55.71]from the forest itself comes the handle for the axe
[01:00.45]drop the staff Moshe Rabbeinu split the ocean in half
[01:04.85]march through the desert they say where its at
[01:09.13]chop em down chop em down
[01:11.98]chop-chop em down chop- chop em down
[01:14.24]patterns engraved not so easily erased
[01:16.99]still wandering trying to find your place
[01:19.23]playing the game i see pain on your face
[01:21.54]now a day’s the yiddin like children sold as slaves
[01:24.08]strange ways running through the maze
[01:26.35]strange ways always lost in the desert trying to find to find your place
[01:31.13]lost lost in the desert trying to find your place
[01:34.23]from the forest itself comes the handle for the axe
[01:37.18]split this wilderness listen up this aint where its at
[01:41.95]clear a path so that you can find your way back
[01:46.55]chop em down chop em down
[01:49.17]chop em down chop em down
[01:51.62]Yoseph descended sold as a slave
[01:56.21]thrown into a dungeon cause he wouldn’t be swayed
[02:00.51]interpreted Pharaoh’s dreams and Egypt was saved
[02:05.64]stock piled food for seven years of rain
[02:08.16]then sold to all the nations when the drought came
[02:10.82]Yoseph rose to power and the yiddin stayed
[02:14.82]they started to build and success was made
[02:19.83]Pharos getting worried let’s make them pay bound in chains
[02:25.41]first born was sent down to their graves
[02:29.47]Moshe was saved and a prince he was raised
[02:33.42]Hashem spoke to him heres a message to relay
[02:38.64]Take my nation from Mitzrayim I see the suffering
[02:43.03]hard hearts ego breaks take sparks and make way
[02:45.98]trail blaze through the wasteland breaking the chains
[02:49.70]
[02:57.95]last generation just the ruminants
[03:00.29]march through the desert leaving footprints
[03:02.94]peel off the lid this is just plastic gotta get into it, get get into it
[03:07.79]heavy hitter stepping solid never quitter jump into the ocean before it split gotta jump into it
[03:14.47]rip rip through Egypt get into it keep the fire lit just get into it
[03:18.48]600, 000 witnessed it, no you didn’t forget
[03:20.98]no you didn’t forget
[03:21.90]rip rip through Egypt get into it
[03:24.23]got a jump into it
[03:27.87]jump jump into it
[03:29.26]in the spiritual desert things are not what they seem
[03:31.56]snakes camouflaged just fit to the scene
[03:34.21]jump into it… camouflaged…
