Raise Your Voice

When the genocidal army came to lay the people low,
To spirit them away from lands their feet had always known,
The leaders of the “free world” turned away their greedy eyes
To protect the settler colony and spread outrageous lies

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

When the young folk made a stand to fight for all the human race,
Our leaders called them evil as they blinded them with mace,
Yet stronger still they cried out loud for freedom to ring true,
Oh an end to the apartheid is so long overdue

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

Now we see the rich folk smiling at their galas and soirées,
As the children of Gaza their mangled bodies laid,
Their hungry eyes and blood soaked hair still left out
In the shade of the dimly shining ego lining pompous parade

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

To all the gallant heroes who boycott and divest,
Who stand against a occupying army’s evil zest,
I say to you dear comrades stay strong until the end,
Free Palestine forever is the message we will send

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained
