Matisyahu es un artista judío de reggae y rap (raggamuffin), aunque en su música mezcla influencias de los géneros sincopados como el dub y utiliza incluso elementos de new metal. Muy afín con la cultura hip hop y reggae, utiliza en sus letras temáticas espirituales derivadas de su condición de judío jasídico. Su verdadero nombre es Matthew Paul Miller, y nació en West Chester, Pennsylvania en el año 1979. Matisyahu es el equivalente hebreo al nombre Mateo. Se le ha llegado a acusar de proselitismo.

Basically the same four chords throughout the song: EmCDG.
Verse:
EmC Keep on moving till the first rays of dawn
DG Keeping it on till the day stays strong
EmC Morning till the night time blaze is on
DG All along I keep singing my song
EmC I said, this phase is always
DG Sometimes I get so crazed
EmC But just know that I'll always stay
DG Cause you're my light through the haze
Chorus -x2-:
EmC It's time for a champion
DG Soothe the soul of the land
EmC Mend the heart from the sea and the sand
DG 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
Verse:
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
Chorus -x2-:
EmC It's time for a champion
DG Soothe the soul of the land
EmC Mend the heart from the sea and the sand
DG Until the sun comes up again
Reach for the sky
Keep your eye on the prize
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
oh-oh-oh-oh
Walk with me momma, talk with me now
-repeat-
