Lyrics

Verse 1:
I was born with a fire that I didn’t choose,
A light in my soul I could never lose.
Through silence and sorrow, I still hear the call—
Of something eternal that carries us all.

Chorus:
You can hide all the signs, you can change what you do,
But you can’t erase the soul of a Jew.
It cries from the depths, it sings in the dark,
It remembers the covenant, it holds the spark.
Through storm and shadow, through exile and flame—
We still whisper Your holy Name.
Because nothing can change what is true—
I am, and will always be, a Jew.

Verse 2:
My feet may stumble, my heart may roam,
But somehow my soul still finds its way home.
Through the tears of a mother, the songs of our past,
I feel something holy that always will last.

Bridge:
It’s the sound of the shofar, the taste of the wine,
The candles that glow at a sacred time.
It’s the stories of tzadikim, the dreams they knew—
It lives in me, because I’m a Jew.

Final Chorus:
You can cover your heart, you can quiet your cry,
But you can’t stop a Jew who’s reaching the sky.
It burns in the prayer, it shines in the night,
It returns again, chasing the light.
Through every fall, Hashem pulls me through—
Because forever and always,
I’m a Jew.
