This is a track I wrote in October 2023.
"From the river to the sea is an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence" - Rashida Tlaib
lyrics
Palestine
V1
Without freedom or human rights
An occupation by a military might
A clear command from an apartheid state
Dominate intimidate humiliate
Forced from their homes and to flee their land
A colonizing that never ends
Demonize dehumanize
But they will rise they will rise
They will rise they will rise
From the river to the sea
Palestine will be free
Palestine you will be free
V2
An open prison surrounded day by day
By tanks and guns from the USA
And now we see more sickening war crimes
No medicine water food or light
While children under rubble slowly die
White phosphorous rains from the sky
We can’t stand by and watch this genocide
We must rise the world must rise
We must rise the world must rise
