D#m F# C# x2

    D#m                              F#
You quench my thirsting soul and you fill my appetite
  C#
I give myself to you because you treat me right
         D#m                        F#
I put my trust in the world and the world gets tight
         C#
Shift my trust to you it's like a crystal clear night
  D#m                            F#                
Expand in all directions get the sections to unite
         C#
Hashem's rays fire blaze light my way light of my life
          D#m                      F#
And these days well wait no longer night
                C#
Reaching for my G-d like skyscrapers in the night
                  D#m                        F#
I said I know its hard inside is empty galus cuts like a knife
       C#
Internalize torah vibes bound to feel alright


Chorus:
D#m
Whirlwind of praise from below to above
     C#
Take flight in the sky got wings like a dove,
      D#m
We're Soaring to the Shomayim (heavens) where the angels call in love
        Fm                          F#     Fm
And the glory of Hashem fits like a glove

  D#m                          F#              
Hashem rules the world and Israel is his wife
C#          
Love you yes my G-d with all my heart my soul and my might
           D#m                         F#
And When I feel you by my side yes I'm flying like a kite
           C#
And When I feel you by my side yes I'm flying like a kite

    D#m                         F#          
You open up my eyes and give me sight
          C#
Super energized and everyday I feel you give me life
  D#m                              F#       
I seen the ways of the world intoxifying on pride
      C#
Young man don't you know drugs impurify your mind
        D#m                     F#
When Israel left mitzrayim four fifths got left behind
       C#
If you got no water how you gonna survive
      D#m                             F#
Roots lead you to the well springs so you could stay alive
        C#
Pharaoh claimed to be a G-d and claimed to make the Nile
       D#m
A crocodile could smile and show his teeth
F#                           C#
You could see beauty shining externally but that's the story of Greece
      D#m          F#          C#  
But inside America bleeds, Yisrael won't you get up from your knees
                 D#m                              F#
Its just lies in disguise Torah's truth won't you please realize
C#
Given to the humble one on Mt. Sinai

Chorus

  D#m         C#             D#m         Fm   F# Fm
Shma Y'sroel, Hashem Elokainu,   Hashem Echad
Shma Y'sroel, Hashem Elokainu,   Hashem Echad

    D#m                         F#                        C#
The world could just crumble to dust its just us it's not two it's just one
                       D#m          F#
The middle road called truth, Torah yes, you sooth my brain bruise
C#
Open up peruse with knowledge of G-d
         D#m                  F#                            C#
And move up an arousal from below till the secrets start to ooze
                                                     D#m
Don't snooze it's pure light the most high wants us alive
                  F#             C#
What's the proof?   We got life!
   D#m                       F#
Chabad philosophy that's the deepest well-spring
        C#
Gaining knowledge of G-d while your gaining money
     D#m                               F#
Fill up yourself with the light of his majesty
     C#
In a world of separation that's the only way to be
     D#m                              F#
It's time we leave we won't flee just walk out easily
     C#
It's time we leave we won't flee just walk out easily

       D#m
If you got no water how you gonna survive
      C#
Roots lead you to the well springs so you could stay alive
       D#m
If you got no water how you gonna survive
       Fm                   F#        Fm
If you got no water how you gonna survive

Chorus

        D#m
Why you searching strange places times unravel like twine
     C#
Travelin you lose the battle and get left behind
      D#m                                       Fm F# Fm
Woven paths holds truth illuminates from inside
