How the Toadies relate to the exodus. There was a band in the mid-90's called the Toadies and they released a song called "I Come From the Water." All the lyrics relate to the exodus after Moses parts the red sea. I come from the water I crawled upon the shore I left my brothers there I got what I came for The Pharoah was Moses' brother, he came up from the ocean and he got all the treasure. I sucked that hot air in And rolled upon the sand Emerged beneath the sun To be a man. Moses reached the desert and basked under the hot sun and the Jews began as a new people. I come from the water I come from the water That weren't no easy thing It's more than nature It's like my destiny The parting of the red sea wasn't easy but God made it Moses' destiny. I stood upon these legs And held my head up high Emerged beneath the sun To start a new life Just like the second verse. Life in the desert Just to be together The sand forever The same forever It moves beneath me It pulls my body My pulse beats hotter So far from the water The 40 days and 40 nights. It gets hotter and hotter away from the sea. I love to see the sun In spite of all it's done I pray for shade and rain I pray to live again I come from the water Moses prays that they overcome the exodus and move on as a people. |
