Walls

It's very weird to walk beside a separating wall
And to hear your brother from the other side
It's very weird how much people can be silent and ignore
While their neighbors are people who suffer
What does the wall help there's no other choice for freedom
To be among us
Until when the situation will stay as it is?
Until when you wanna stay like that
Holding hands on the side of the road and only watch

Rebel on the situation, take a stand, take a glimpse
Take off the mask, keep your eyes on the road
You identity card Is only a card and not a belonging energy
Like your home is not in your ownership and you don't have a possibility to buy it
In White I sweep the sweat when I plan the Green
In Black I sweep the blood of the martyr
The pure blood, like a blood of a farmer who walked bare foot
In a way full of thrones, without complaining because his lips are dry
It's enough to walk after decisions of the capitalists, people are missing humanity lectures
Humanity we have in me and you, the humanity which is not shown in the media
So take my words a present
I plant patience and strength is planting in me
I suppress the conquer, my culture is embroidered on my Kofeyya
Stable in my land but I battle in this era
So you can flap in the Kofeyya, you need to be a human first

Separation I didn't ask to live in
Platform of studying, can't concentrate, it's just matter to fill your place on the chair
Because it's a mother fucker country
Its followers don't speak Arabic
Quick obstacle, walk to raise your grade
Normalization? Don't sell it in our neighborhood
Don't try to convince me in the stableness of the tempo because it can be broke

A verse doesn't explain much but it can summarize
A story of a family that her home was wrecked
As long as there oppression, hiphop will last

So I understand the tactic, I learn the big picture, also in opposite
Complicated situations from a prejudging point of view
Mental walls, because our kids has grown apart from nature
Schizophrenia, take the I.D. card so I can find my Identity

Cure yourself, leave the screen already
It's full of lies, from the games of politics
Take a real beat from my inside, I talk and give benefit, because hiphop is my way
