For You Lyrics by Matisyahu

Light

2009

Undo the clasps, cast the shackles to the sea
They flee from themselves and they can't understand
They burn humanity in their search to be free
But freedom's not for sale

When you run for the moonlight
To dance on a ray and become
What you knew to be true but the time flew by
You been searching for a reason why

And I, I will be there for you
To search for you wherever you are
And I, I will be there for you
To look for you wherever you go
Â

When you dance in the drizzle fizzle out
Fist out, blissed out, shout it loud
Through the clouds, oh and rock out
I can't stop now 'cause I move like the breeze

With ease and grace we stay laced
As we move through the space dancing on a blade
Of grass at twilight a firefly fly free through the night
I shine bright from the ground to the sky

And I, I will be there for you
To search for you wherever you are
And I, I will be there for you
To look for you wherever you go

On and on we go as the world turns the world burns
Come from Mount Zion, stay out of the whirlwind
Move to the music 'cause the world don't sit still
In silence we climb through blindness

And I, I will be there for you
To search for you wherever you are
And I, I will be there for you
To look for you wherever you go
