This song encourages me to be the best father I can be to my adopted daughter. She has been through 11 homes and I don't plan on her being in any other until she is grown up and is ready to be in one of her own. Just wanted to share that :) Have a great day everyone!
Proud of you brother! I took in my son's little brother, he was a product of the affair their mother had on me, but that meant nothing, he is innocent, and they are brothers and I woukd want the same if my brother and I were seperated. Unfortunately, DFS discovered we had him while mom was in jail, and they took him and placed him in paternal grandma's care since his dad was in prison. Sad life for any child. His grandma is wonderful and talks to me more than her own son. She moved to my town so the brothers could be together still. Children need people to love them and care for them. I'll be praying for you.
Cheers man, if only I could buy you a beer or invite you to my house for a barbecue and football.. I got a daughter myself and I love that little playful person to death. I'd kill to just keep her safe.
I'm so glad you found your "person" that does that for you, musically. Matisyahu is probably more talented and more pure hearted than a lot of people than I had to get me through bad times. I guess they were musical "flings". I'm sorry you are having such a hard hard time, and I hope things get better for you. I hope there's something i can do, if not, I willsend a virtual big mama bear hug, pick you up, spin you around, make fart noises in your ear until you laugh and then make you your favorite snack. If you are having a bad day, we will virtually go the park and throw rocks at something.and feed the birds. Then go stomp in the puddles all the way home and watch cartoons while I make another snack. And just talk about stuff.
Brings me tears this beautiful song. Lost my son in 2019, with him a big part of me died. Feels like I'm just floating through this life now but I know our good Lord has a plan for us all. God bless everyone.
Matisyahu, if you ever feel like giving up on what you love doing because you're afraid no one likes what you're doing or that your music has no impact, read the comments of this video. Many are of people expressing love, peace, and balance. Keep making this great music my friend, you have helped many. Including me.
+DanielWhite It could have as many views as gangnam style and even more likes but, no matter how successful we actually are, sometimes there's just a feeling of emptiness you get..sometimes that makes people stop doing the things they love. I jus wanted to make sure if Matisyahu ever feels that way he's got support from people like you an me!:D
Me I just found this song, when I accidentally watched yt video about Israel and Palestine throwing missiles at each other...and guess what video was next after that
Saw Matisyahu in cincy. He was absolutely incredible. the concert was so intimate, you can totally tell this man was created to make music and share his soul
I found it! This song got me through so many suicidal thoughts back in high school. I completely forgot about it, then randomly remembered it, tried to find it for years, I couldn't but now here I am. (: damn, I'm so happy to be listening to it again, reminds me to stay strong and that life really is worth living despite its struggles. Sending Peace and love to all you lovely people!
Very positive lyrics and uplifting sound. He is a real soul and a great human being. Shame on those who post negativity here when there is so much positive to receive if you just listen to this song. Some of you need to listen again.
check out the video where he walks in on a singer who is singing his song in hawaii. It's awesome. Sounds good, too. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jxa3_WW6Qow.html
One of my moms favorite songs. She died a year ago. She was the most positive woman i've ever known. Always positive! Look forward! Never give up! Have a great day! Remember to breathe
Oh sweetie. So young (she and I were born the same year.) What a great way to live your life and keep up her positive message. Proud of you. Keep it up!!!
Keep on moving till the first rays of dawn Keeping it on till the day is done Morning till the night time blaze is on All along I keep singing my song I said, this phase is always Sometimes I get so crazed But just know that I'll always stay Cause you're my light through the haze It's time for a champion Soothe the soul of the land Mend the heart from the sea and the sand Until the sun comes up again It's time for a champion Soothe the soul of the land Mend the heart from the sea and the sand Until the sun comes up again Reach for the sky Keep your eye on the prize Forever in my mind Be my golden sunshine It's raining in your mind So push them clouds aside Forever by my side You're my golden sunshine When the sun set I let myself down Found the ground beneath my feet gone No more words were there to speak On that day my song was born Never meant to leave you all alone Said I'd be your shelter from the storm Now your clothes have all been torn Kingdom sacked attacked and dethroned It's time for a champion Soothe the soul of the land Mend the heart from the sea and the sand Until the sun comes up again It's time for a champion Soothe the soul of the land Mend the heart from the sea and the sand Until the sun comes up again Reach for the sky Keep your eye on the prize Forever in my mind Be my golden sunshine It's raining in your mind So push them clouds aside Forever by my side You're my golden sunshine It's the way of the world You're on your own Time to grow and be a man Want to fly high like peter pan No more never never land So lose your backpack filled with sand Come along and take my hand We'll walk together for forever Reach for the sky Keep your eye on the prize Forever in my mind Be my golden sunshine It's raining in your mind So push them clouds aside Forever by my side You're my golden sunshine Reach for the sky Keep your eye on the prize Forever in my mind Be my golden sunshine It's raining in your mind So push them clouds aside Forever by my side You're my golden sunshine Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Walk with me now, talk with me now, baby Bo-bo-bo-bo-bo Walk with me momma, talk with me now Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Walk with me now, talk with me now, baby Bo-bo-bo-bo-bo Walk with me momma, talk with me now
Hey Matisyahu 👋 I don't have any friends. Listening to your song helps me with the pain I endure in my heart with loneliness. Thank you for keeping your eye on the prize and making uplifting music.
I lost so much faith in people and definitely don't trust politicians. I personally find loyalty and friendship in dogs... They are the most loyal thing I know. I just want you to know I feel ya' and also find joy in good music. If you ever need someone to talk to hit me up... Peace, much love to you my friend... Don't say none... say one. ;)
My oldest child died suddenly at the age of 27 in 2018. I had fallen in love with Matisyahu because of this song a couple of years earlier, but wow... four and a half years on and it's so amazing. Thank you, Matisyahu ❤️
As a dad having my only child taken away from me through false allegations of the most heinous crimes, I can only say my heart goes out to you brother/sister for your loss. There's not a day that goes by without the pain somehow being there and memories resurface. I thank YaHuWaH Most High for watching over my family, you and all his children even though we walk through the valleys of the shadows of death, here on this earth. YAH is good, every merciful and gracious, and righteous through and through. Seek him while he is still to be found. YAH bless you all and keep you and your children and loved ones close and safe. Shalom.
I just miss the simplicity of life, before growing up, before the mass reset. Its all a lesson, if we dont learn from our mistakes, we are going to repeat them.
I had so many thoughts about suicide, but this song gave me so much strengh. Thank you so much! This song is for my dark days and doesn't matter how much i'm crying, after this song, I can take a smile on my face. So much peace and love to all of you! Greetings from Germany
I just feel this song as mine since my little sister passed away. I love her so much. Also, i know that she is present in all of daily Situation at all.
This is soooo beautiful!!! I'm so glad I searched this song on RU-vid after it appeared on my car pandora. I would videotape for hours if I was now in Israel, my dreamland ... but now far away overseas... Lots of love from Philly.
If you're Jewish you should request Aliyah or serve in the IDF as a National from your home country. Israel will bend over backwards to get a member of the tribe to the homeland.
Nah bruh...sometimes the best stays at the underground of the underrated.....i mean, whatever you know what i'm talking about right? brother we wont let tiktok ruin this masterpiece
This song is four years old. And if you're wondering: www.jta.org/2013/03/13/arts-entertainment/matisyahu-talks-about-his-new-religious-outlook-and-appearance
ILOVEYESHUA1ST Are you serious? Lol. I wasn't even dissing the song. I was simply saying it's been a while since I've seen him and it's weird seeing him without his beard. And your response is I need the Lord? I'm actually Atheist and very happy with life. I can like Matisyahu's music without being religious, and you attempting to impose your beliefs on me is evil and you should be ashamed. I suggest you go pray to whatever god you believe in and ask for forgiveness for being a dick to a total stranger.
This is our permanent foster dog Jimmy's song.Jimy was born here and 2 years in Oct.31,2024 he still has had no interest shown in him. However nothing gets Jimmy down.Im listening to this right now watching Jimmy playing with his biological mother who he was able to meet when he turned one.She was in labor 3 days during her transport to us from the shelters death row it's a minimal she is alive and so Jimmy was nursed by another do to the week condition of her,and Jimmy's new foster child Floki.Jimmy has a meaningful life and is a living breathing testimony of life's beauty. He is my sunshine when I'm feeling down defeated and generally sorry for myself.
Remember listening to this gem in 2013 when it had 400k views and was so disappointed that many people hadn’t heard it . 10 years later 43 million views so glad this song is finally getting the recognition it deserves . Congrats M
Used to play this song back in the days while playing while making my way home not worrying abt anything.. and now that im older ive had my fair share of anxiety and almost forgot about this song.. here i am playing it and all my worries vanished.. its crazy.
I didn’t realize he switched up his music so much. I’m 30 and was reminiscing about old music and thought of him so I went back and watched King Without a Crown and ended up here and I’m very happy about it now. The man doesn’t miss.
Such an inspired message 💫 like an ancient scriptural prophesy put into song 💫 like David, Matisyahu is a poet, a prophet, and a psalmist. Modern day David. Really incredible! So much in this one song. I keep getting new messages from it every time I listen to it. 💫☀️❤️
Last album I was able to buy my brother before he passed at 24 in 2013!! He begged me to buy him an early bday present and thank God I did because he never saw his birthday 2 months later!! My big brother was my whole life and showed me the music I'll carry for the rest of my life with me and introduce his nephew too, even if he never got to meet him, his nephew will know him! Thank you Matisyahu for many shared memories!!!
I was eating at a restaurant and heard this faintly on the radio. I'm so glad I heard it otherwise I would have probably forgotten about it, being back so many cherished memories.
I don't understand how good music like this is not more popular yet when Nicky Minaj posts a music video of herself twerking it goes viral and goes on to win countless awards.
Additionally, the "backpack filled with sand" seems to be a metaphor for what you carry around that weighs you down (and also might be a dumb thing that you're still carrying). The metaphor of the little girl in this village that seems to need a "champion" or someone to save kids/people like her from the bad they're surrounded with. So beautiful! Ties very much into a lot of the sadness that's going on in the world rn
Matisyahu.... ojalá leas mi comentario algún día y te haga reflexionar... Eras... de los más grandes, de los más profundos y sobre todo de los más sinceros. Tus canciones eran prácticamente todo lo que se podía pedir; en temas tan extraordinarios como One Day o Youth. Pero lamentablemente ahora sólo eres otro cantante comercial, convirtiendo su pasión en negocio por el sucio dinero. Día tras día personas de todo el Mundo se dejan manipular bajo el poder del dinero, pero de verdad, que jamás llegué a pensar que tú también caerías. Todos mis respetos y buenos deseos para el Matisyahu que conocía hace años, toda mi ignorancia de aquí en adelante para en lo que te has convertido, tristemente. Saludos. ...
Estoy de acuerdo contigo Lobo Torres :/ sus canciones eran bastante profundas y tocaban temas de la actualidad y claro a todo esto con su buen ritmo reggae. Un gran ejemplo seria King without a Crown, super tema y full recomendado! Viene a Panamá en septiembre y la verdad me gustaría mucho que interpretara sus temas viejos... en fin. Humilde opinión.
Estoy contigo Gabriela Barrios. Tiene un ritmo que era bastante único. O tenía... por que ahora es más Pop comercial que otra cosa. Lástima. Por cierto, buen gusto para la música, las películas y los vídeo juegos. me he quedado sorprendido gratamente viendo tu perfil xD ... P.D: Hace tiempo que no juego WarFrame, así que no puedo ayudarte :P
11 yrs after the release of this song ,I'm still fascinated by this song and his "One Day" , and I pity people who comments such hate , They forgot to feel the message of the song instead they always been subjective.
Hey sir matisyahu, my household and I have been having this song on repeat from the moment we wake, the past few days. I really feel your message man. Thank you, and blessing always flow to you! Keep reaching brother!
