I remember how it all started in the beginning
6 days, a gift, passed down, I still carry it with me
I remember walking alongside Abraham
I recall him working out the game plan
Being a stranger in a strange land
It all started from him. Back then he was the main man!
I remember Joseph being in jail with me
I saw his rise to power and I saw his dreams.
I recall my time, as a slave, in slavery
Then Moses handled business and we were set free
I remember my time at Mt. Sinai
We said “we will do and we will listen” man how the time flies by
I was ready to come home, but my crew had to listen to the lies of the spies
Spent another 40 years in the desert until we got it right
Then I rolled out with Joshua
When David was writing his tunes I was watching him
Watched Solomon handle his business and get my home built
I recall all this everyday as I look ahead I remember it all still...

I remember fighting the Babylonians
Fasting with Esther and saw Haman as they were hanging him
I recall the Greeks wanting us to assimilate, be liberated
So I fought alongside the Macabees so we could stay free and emancipated
I remember the Roman Empire destroying my second temple.
They kicked us out and then we were exiled
Over time, I saw them execute 10 of the best
I watched The Prince write things down so we didn't forget
I recall Rashi writing his own script
I remember Maimonides doing his medicine
Crusades, The Dark Ages, The Black Plague, family in Spain burnt at the stake
I remember much of this happening on the 9th day
I recall a time when my faith
wasn't their faith, which just led to their hate
Convert or die they used to say
We didn't convert and we're still here today

I know the list goes on and on
The Russians, Cossacks, Poland, the Pogroms
I was there I remember the chain of events in history
Im calling You out about that promise that You made to me,
Something about dealing with my enemies
Its time to see the Foundation of #3, I've been waiting for 3, impatiently
Bring us back to You and we'll return
I need ya to renew our days as in the old
I remember the past and am always reminded
we got to come together and unify, put our differences aside
So we can let you G-d take the wheel for a while
So we can just kick back and enjoy the ride
And before I die I'll make sure my kids and my kids kids never forget,
the who, what, where when or why
They'll remember, They'll recall and they'll just pass it on
