Adonai
Head Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Understand, it's for the sake of every man
That I must take this whole world back, to make things right
I will attack, I came to fight

I will rise a generation up to be my soldiers
I will tie my heart to yours put my head on your shoulders

Make your escape from life with Adonai
Everything in life depends on Adonai

Understand, it's for the sake of every man
That I must take this whole world back, to make things right
I will attack, I came to fight

Natural disasters will keep coming but don't worry
My people don't live in fear of death, that's how you should be

Make your escape from life with Adonai
Everything in life depends on Adonai
Lift all your worries up to Adonai
You will all stop hurting come to Adonai

Leave me alone now, I'm not from here
My home's in Heaven, leave me alone
Rise, rise, rise up, Adonai
Rise, rise, rise up, Adonai
Rise, rise, rise up, Adonai
Rise, rise, rise up, Adonai

Let your worries rest on Adonai
Life is just a test from Adonai
Make your escape from life with Adonai
Everything in life depends on Adonai
Lift all your worries up to Adonai
You will all stop hurting come to Adonai

Understand, it's for the sake of every man
That I must take this whole world back, to make things right




I will attack, I came to fight, I came to fight, I came to fight
I came to fight, I came to fight, I came to fight, I came to fight, I came to fight
