Intro:
Tell me what path to try.
Don’t mind being past-your-eyes-ed?
You’re living half your life.
What won’t you sacrifice?
Chorus:
How do, you choose, to have your holy child’s soul removed
But to refuse, means breaking one of G-d’s own rules
Each Jew must put themselves inside of Abraham’s shoes
A cruel//
proof of your own truth//Kashya-22
Verse 1:
(G-d) “Take, to slay the one you love”
(Abraham) “Ok! Show me the way.”
(G-d) “So awake at the break of day
Don’t delay”
(Abraham) “Hey, Hey, Hey, you 2 stay, we will both brave
To the place, that G-d will say”
(Isaac) “No shade, but
who’s the שֶּׂ֖ה?”
Who's to say?
Pre-Chorus:
But Avram it’s your fave son
Heard the parameter’s statements
Given the ram if your patient
Still comes with Ramification
Chorus:
How do, you choose, to have your holy child’s soul removed
But to refuse, means breaking one of G-d’s own rules
Each Jew must put themselves inside of Abraham’s shoes
A cruel//
proof of your own truth//Kashya -22
Verse 2:
Why oh why? Didt you think twice?
Of the life? For your wife?
To Abide, but at what price?
To be pious?
Try to heed advice
Isaac agrees it would be wise
Bind just to be Precise
But neglecting your agency will not suffice
Don’t be Blind Go back and revise
represcribe, whatever you decide’s
You know it’s a choice and that either way’s a sacrifice
Pre-Chorus:
But Avram it’s your fave son
Heard the parameter’s statement
Given the ram if your patient
Still comes with Ramification
Chorus:
How do, you choose, to have your holy child’s soul removed
But to refuse, means breaking one of G-d’s own rules
Each Jew must put themselves inside of Abraham’s shoes
A cruel//
