Qadosh, Qadosh You don’t know Him, stop fakin’ that walk Sayin’ “Abba” but your steps full of chalk Dead man talkin’ lips say love But your fruit got you hidin’ from above He wrote commands not suggestions You break Torah, then post confessions That ain’t real that’s coward’s religion Yahusha come, He catch you slippin’ You don’t know Him if you don’t obey Him You fake love, fake prayers, but you still betrayin’ Talkin’ Yahuah, but your walk be lyin’ Claimin’ truth, but the fruit be dyin’ If you know Him, then show Him If you love Him, then hold Him If you fear Him, stop foldin’ You don’t know Him if you don’t obey Him Yahusha ain’t ride to cover your sin He bled so your flesh could never win He lived Torah down to the dust You break it daily then claim trust? Sabbath ignored feast days erased But you want blessings with no holy taste You want His favor but reject His rule You serve yourself that’s the real fool Y’all scared of man but not scared of Him You fear the world but play with sin He comin’ back with a sword, not a smile And most gon’ fall ‘cause they lived too wild He don’t need talk He judge by the flame Obey Torah or get erased from the name You don’t know Him if you don’t obey Him You fake love, fake prayers, but you still betrayin’ Talkin’ Yahuah, but your walk be lyin’ Claimin’ truth, but the fruit be dyin’ If you know Him, then show Him If you love Him, then hold Him If you fear Him, stop foldin’ You don’t know Him if you don’t obey Him He ain’t moved by your lips He watching how you live Say His Name but deny His Torah? That ain’t love. That’s a lie. More From ZoreaYahu He Alone Is Yahuah All I Want Is Yahuah Blood That Speaks Father & Son Fear Yahuah Or Fall He Don't Bow The Scroll Behind This Song You Don't Know Yahuah If You Don't Obey Him takes its title straight from the plain teaching of Yahukhanan Ri'shon (1 John) 2:3-4, which says that we know we know Him if we keep His commands, and that whoever claims to know Him yet does not keep His commands is a liar in whom the truth is not. The whole song is an extended meditation on that single test, obedience is the evidence of relationship, and words without it are hollow.
The song draws a sharp line between profession and practice. This is the exact warning of Mattithyahu (Matthew) 7:21-23, where not everyone who calls out to Him enters, but the one who does the will of the Father, and where some who claim His Name are told plainly that He never knew them. The lyric's charge against fake love and fake prayers carries this meaning, a name spoken with the mouth is not the same as a life submitted to Him.
Its repeated appeal to fruit reflects Mattithyahu (Matthew) 7:16-20, that a tree is known by its fruit, and Yaʿaqob (James) 2:17-18, that faith without works is dead and that true faith is shown by what it does. The song's insistence that dying fruit exposes a dead walk is the plain sense of both passages.
The song also names specific obedience, the Sabbath and the feast days, and the demand to keep Torah rather than merely admire it. Dabarim (Deuteronomy) 11:1 ties love for Yahuah directly to keeping His charge and His commands, so that love and obedience are not two things but one.
Running through the song is the theme of reverence over fear of man, and of Yahusha as the pattern who lived Torah fully and returns to judge each life. The plain message is not condemnation for its own sake but a call to a real, obeying walk. Listeners moved by this theme will also find it in Obedience To Yahuah Is Love, Fear Yahuah or Fall, He Don't Bow, Scrolls In My Veins, and Planted Deep In Yahuah.
