World Goes Blind

Tell em what the truth is
You know damn well he ain't do shit
He cried out for help but it was useless

I go to sleep every night feeling traumatized
They say occupation tryna hide that it's a genocide
I just wish a kid could grow up to see his mama
I wish that I could do something 'bout bombs dropped on Gaza
Hurts so bad to know
Where do my tax dollars go
Murdered in cold blood
Poor young soul all he knew was love
The whole world goes blind, turned to silence
While I'm saying free Palestine from the tyrants

I don't even know if I can handle this pain
Everyday's a murder, kids get put in the grave
Shot for his race in the place he was raised
When peace was the only thing that he ever craved
So how you justify what you doing?
Hurts so bad to see all the lives we losing
It feels like the world goes blind
Free Falasteen, Free Palestine

Pray to God that the world gon' finally see
What goes on overseas and behind the scenes
A lil' boy got his neck on the concrete
Like George Floyd on the kid when he tryna breathe

He threw a rock, but they got a tank
Dead on the floor, he been praying for change
You murder children, no we not the same
You got my people, they dying in chains

Ain't nobody evil like the IDF
Lil kid in his thoughts thinking I might be next
He got shot, in peace may he rest
I seen it in the videos and photographs

You shoot a kid and you laugh about it
Hurts so bad nobody ever ask about it
Too many bodies to count with simple mathematics
Families gone and it's so traumatic

Leave his home alone
He was there his whole life, now everything is gone
He don't got no shoulder to cry on, not even moms
They done made him homeless, now he got no one
Family deceased by explosions
Mentally he's scarred and all he sees are those moments
All he can do is pray
Pray he gon' live another day

I don't even know if I can handle this pain
Everyday's a murder, kids get put in the grave
Shot for his race in the place he was raised
When peace was the only thing that he ever craved
So how you justify what you doing?
Hurts so bad to see all the lives we losing
It feels like the world goes blind
Free Falasteen, Free Palestine
