"Driftin'" lyrics - MATISYAHU

Expansive soul with my wings in the air
Try to fit a circle in the square
All this talk about my look, who cares
Shallow minds just scratch the surface

16, I knew my purpose
Further my instincts
Make music
I walk a tight rope in the circus
You say my eyes make you nervous

Late night swerving
Switching
Where the lights get low
Lower than the lowest low
Lower than where the sun go
My approach to let go
Let the blood flow
Through the drums and the cymbals

Watch the clouds roll in
And the fog lifting
Watch the waves crashing
I'm a drifting
Wishing on a star
Make yourself into the man
That you always knew you were
When the lights seem so far

Watch the clouds roll in
And the fog lifting
Watch the waves crashing
I'm a drifting
Wishing on a star
Make yourself into the man
That you always knew you were
When the lights seem so far

Watch the clouds roll in
Watch the fog lifting
Watch the waves crashing
And the wood drifting
I'm riffing, wishing on a star
Making your self into what you always are

When the day glows
And the night knows
Our secrets
The strange places
We visit

Pass through so many spaces
Cover any order to the phases of my rotation
Stow away my calculations
Too many invasions
On my relationships
Pass by

Don't waste my time
With pastime
My past time
Is past time
Past lies and past crimes
They passed out

Walking on so many roads I'm taking my time right now
After the rain
After the rain, after the hurricane
Cruising up the interstate
Early for the party
With the chapstick on my lips
As I sip some tea
On the L-I-E across NYC

Watch the clouds roll in
And the fog lifting
Watch the waves crashing
I'm a drifting
Wishing on a star
Make yourself into the man
That you always knew you were
When the lights seem so far

Watch the clouds roll in
And the fog lifting
Watch the waves crashing
I'm a drifting
Wishing on a star
Make yourself into the man
That you always knew you were
When the lights seem so far
