WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza)(Composed by Michael Heart)Copyright 2009
A blinding flash of white lightLit up the sky over Gaza tonightPeople running for coverNot knowing whether they’re dead or aliveThey came with their tanks and their planesWith ravaging fiery flamesAnd nothing remainsJust a voice rising up in the smoky hazeWe will not go downIn the night, without a fightYou can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schoolsBut our spirit will never dieWe will not go downIn Gaza tonightWomen and children alikeMurdered and massacred night after nightWhile the so-called leaders of countries afarDebated on who’s wrong or rightBut their powerless words were in vainAnd the bombs fell down like acid rainBut through the tears and the blood and the painYou can still hear that voice through the smoky hazeWe will not go downIn the night, without a fightYou can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schoolsBut our spirit will never dieWe will not go downIn Gaza tonightThanks to Michael Heart- Speaking (Berbicara)
