From oppression to depression
From peaceful beauty to aggression
I've been oppressed and depressed
And as a number assessed
I've seen war-crimes but nonetheless
I keep fighting despite the stress
Playing brothers and mothers
And children like chess
Killing millions of people
Leaving others compressed
Degraded and assaulted
But do you hear it on press
My hundred year old house
They claim to possess
The two hundred year old olive tree
I can no longer address
They speak of us like an extinct tribe
"Palestine?" we'll just digress
We are human, just like you
But I'm not like you, I confess
I seek humanity, justice
I seek feelings to express
I am rooted, determined
Where I belong, I'll repossess
I won't deteriorate
I won't give in
I won't surrender
We won't succumb
I promise you
I swear to you
We will ALL convalesce
