Lion of Ido – “Everything Changes”
I take chances for the thrill. Or be slaves in narrows building pyramids for 400 years.
I thought it would be an appropriate time to explain theses lyrics. Believe it or not, they have a lot to do with Passover.
The story of Passover is that the Jewish people escaped from 400 years of slavery in Egypt. They roamed the desert for 40yrs and finally made there way back to the land of Israel.
“mitzrayim”: The Hebrew word for “Egypt” is derived from the Hebrew word tzar (narrows, straits), meaning “from the narrows” or “tight confinement”.
They idea of Passover is to celebrate our release from bondage…or narrows.
In modern times one can be externally free and nevertheless enslaved to an evil within oneself — power, envy, intolerance, hatred, cruelty, selfishness, despair, and apathy. Releasing the chains you put on yourself and freeing the human spirit is at the core of growing and changing as a person.
