There is the desperation of sighs
As another Palestinian dies
For want of love
Because the world is too far above
Itself to reach down
And bring peace to a town
When someone runs with a gun
Something somehow clasps
Their hands so that thing cannot last
And yet we watch as the ICJ
Won’t wish this genocide away
And people say you’re anti Semetic
If you don’t agree with the rhetoric
That would condemn a people to evisceration
Torture and brutality the equation
That would erase them from this earth
I don’t know if bombs are made to hurt
Or just tear apart
The human heart
We must start
A movement, a revolution
To end apartheid that is brutal
And unforgiving and unfair
I know because I was there
When I watched the flag fall
Don’t hide them behind a brick wall
And say it’s not your plight
Because they’re relying on us, alright?
