Change

Change ~ DeScribe and Y-Love

Crown Heights!! Chosen Few crew!
Describe! modular Y- Love! Prodezra in the building, building!
Prodezra Beats now…Prodezra Beats now…
He’s a genius I’m tellin’ ya…
if i forsake you Jerusalem….ayyy….yoooo!!

(Chorus - from Psalm 137:5-6)
אם אשכחך ירושלים תשכח ימיני
Im eshkachech Yerushalayim Tishkach Y’mini
תדבק לשוני לחכי
Tidback leshoni lichiki lichiki
אם לא אזרכי -- אם לא אעלה את ירושלים
Im lo ezkarechi im lo a’aleh et Yerushalayim
Jerusalem (Jah!)
על ראש שמחתי
Al rosh simchati
אם אשכחך ירושלים תשכח ימיני
Im eshkachech Yerushalayim Tishkach Y’mini
Spit fire! Now my brothas you can just roll with me
אם לא אזרכי -- אם לא אעלה את ירושלים
Im lo ezkarechi im lo a’aleh et Yerushalayim Jerusalem (Jah!)

Yooooooo!
It’ a new world advanced technology
Everybody got access, can you feel the energy
Satellites and televisions, straight up infinity
Look at all the changes man, can you see the prophecy
אם אשכחך ירושלים תשכח ימיני
(Im eshkachech Yerushalayim Tishkach Y’mini)
אנחנו חיים בעולם כל-כך אכזרי
(Anachnu chaim ba’olam kol kach achzari)
It’s the real deal, black & white, BOOM! In your face
Do the One Two step, and slow down the pace aye,
Describe!!! With the lyrical vibe
Wake up and smell the napalm cuz the world is alive
We’re far from perfect, yeah I know, but we’re movin’ too slow
So I’m rappin’ bout a change, feel the beat, let’s go!
All I wanna do is change a little bit of you
By making music that can spread out some light, Ooo Ooo
It’s real dark , we just need to light a spark,
And the fire will just blaze up, d’ blaze up the night!

עיר הקודש - שורה שמו שם
(Ir ha'kodesh, shoreh shmo sham) - The Holy City, He will rest His Name there!
לכל - השורש
(La'kol - ha'shoresh) - The source of everything!
On the ground, the stones shine!
The water gon' flow - check the fire in the sky!
Then the horn gon' blow, then we all gon' fly...
Connect to the Redemption! Walk into the sunrise,
Go across the Wi Fi, download the Most High!
Believe in the dream, both eyes to the prize
The place that all nations gonna praise One G-d
Materialistic think its gonna reign perpetual
Destruction comes eventual, we tryin’ to rise for festivals
Nation that originated here on these streets,
Inspiration that’s contained in this mp3
Bring the opposite of apocalypse, the positive uprisin’
Soul directed towards the תלפיות (Talpiyot), with quotes from the Prophets
Words on the scroll in the remainder of the Temple
Yeah, the 34th meridian stays central to the mental!

Yaaaaooooooooooo!!!!
While we livin’ in a reality that’s physical
I gotta look and internally to reveal the spiritual, man
Make ya hands go (clap), bring it back now
Feel ya heart go (bump bump) , and ya soul goes….y oooo!

The digital reality, the soul into technology
The unity the policy to bring that new theology
Now clap for me, now bring it down for me
Come on clap for me, now bring it back for me

Yo! Don’t go political with all the individual
Divisions that be splittin’, don’t be trippin’,that be infantile
ya hands go (clap), bring it back now
Feel ya heart go (bump bump) and your souls goes…Jyaaaaaa!!!

Yo I can’t help but be political, and keep it individual
But when we on the spiritual, yo one is indivisible,
Now clap for me, now bring it down for me
Now just clap for me!

Yo! Describe with the lyrical vibe
The Chosen Few…yeah yeah yeah…The Chosen Few!
Y-Love go beyond the norm, my eyes directed towards Tziyon (Zion)
We on, be on!
Describe with the lyrical vibe, we give power to the people
Spreadin’ light, Da power’s on!
Y-Love, the Modular, the function, we risin’
With gumption, I gotta say something I’m runnin’!

*I do love it when those who are Torah Observant tear down stereotypes*

I raelly hope these guys get a whole album together. This single is amazing.
And he's a big guy with a beard, so he's A+ in my book.

It's going to take me a long effing time trying to memorize these lyrics, though. Even reading them along with the song, I still can't keep up. haha.

If I forget you
O Jerusalem
let my right hand wither
Let my tongue stick to my palate
if I cease to think of you
if I do not keep Jerusalem in memory
even at my happiest hour.
