King Without A Crown on stage by Matisyahu.
This is a live preformance at Stubbs and is faster than the studio version on the CD.
Sorry about the random girl at the end. The origional video had an interview with kids about why they liked the song.
Someone requested the lyrics;

[Freestylin']
{Zee} You're all that I have and you're all that I need
Each and every day I pray to get to know your peace
Wanna be close to you, yes I'm so hungry
You're like water for my soul when it gets thirsty
Without you there's no me
You're the air that I breathe
{Say} Sometimes the world is dark and I just can't see
With these, demons surround all around to bring me down to negativity
But I believe, yes I believe, I said I believe
I'll stand on my own two feet
Won't be brought down on one knee
I'll fight with all of my might and get these demons to flee
Hashem's rays fire blaze burn bright and I believe
Hashem's rays fire blaze burn bright and I believe
Out of darkness comes light, twilight unto the heights
Crown Heights {yah} burnin' up all through the twilight
Said, thank you to my God, now I finally got it right
And I'll fight with all of my heart, and all a' my soul, and all a' my might
[Chorus:]2x
What's this feeling?
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
(I give/Givin'} myself to you {now} from the essence of my being
And I sing to my God, songs of love and healing
I want Moshiach now, time it starts revealing
What's this feeling?
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
(I give/Givin'} myself to you {now} from the essence of my being
And I sing to my God, songs of love and healing
I want Moshiach now. {ya}
Stripin' away the layers and reveal your soul
Ya gotta to give yourself up and then you become whole
You're a slave to yourself and you don't even know
(You) Want to live the fast life but your brain moves slow
If you're trying to stay high, you're bound to stay low
You want God but you (can't/couldn't} deflate your ego
You're already there, then there's nowhere to go
You're cup's already full then it's bound to overflow
If you're drowning in the waters and you can't stay afloat
Ask Hasheem for mercy {and} he'll throw you a rope
(You're) lookin' for help from God; you say he couldn't be found
Searching up to the sky and looking beneath the ground
Like a King without his Crown
You keep fallin' down
You really want to live but can't get rid of your frown
You('re) try(in') to reach unto the heights and wound bound down on the ground
Given up your pride - then ya heard a sound
Out of night comes day {and} out of day comes light
{said} Nullified to the One like sunlight in a ray,
(Makin'/Make} room for his love for a fire gone blaze,
(Make/Makin'} room for his love for a fire gone blaze,
[Chorus:]2x
What's this feeling?
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
(I give/Givin'} myself to you {now} from the essence of my being
and I sing to my God, songs of love and healing
I want Moshiach now so it's time we start revealing
What's this feeling?
My love will rip a (hole/skylight} in the ceiling
(I give/Givin'} myself to you now from the essence of my being
And I sing to my God, songs of love and healing
(I want Moshiach now)
{Yah yah, yah yah yo yah yah...}
[guitar solo]
{..yo.. [x13]}
{And} See, I lift up (my/mine} eyes where my help come from
And I seen it circling around from the mountain
Thunder!
You feel it in your chest
You keep my mind at ease and my soul at rest
You're not vexed
{When I} Look to the sky where my help come from
{and I} Seen it circling around from the mountain
Thunder!
You feel it in your chest
(You keep my mind at ease and my soul at rest
You're not vexed
[freestylin'])
{Ziggy-yiggy-yo viggy-yiggy-yo
Said Thunder!
You feel it in your, I feel it in your,
Thunder!
You feel it in your, I feel it in your,
Thunder!
You feel it in your, I feel it in your,
Yo ho ho..ah!
...
Woo!
What's this feeling?
My love will rip a hole in the ceiling
Givin' myself to you from the essence of my being
Sing to my God {wah, ha ha..]
Zee wah yo
Zee wah yo ho..
Ho yo..
Zyeh yo ho ho
Yah!
...}
