Song 4 Gaza : We Will Not Go Down




WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza) 
(Composed by Michael Heart) 

Copyright 2009 

A blinding flash of white light 

Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight 
People running for cover 
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive

They came with their tanks and their planes 

With ravaging fiery flames 
And nothing remains 
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

We will not go down 

In the night, without a fight 
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools 
But our spirit will never die 
We will not go down 
In Gaza tonight

Women and children alike 

Murdered and massacred night after night 
While the so-called leaders of countries afar 
Debated on who’s wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain 

And the bombs fell down like acid rain 
But through the tears and the blood and the pain 
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

We will not go down 

In the night, without a fight 
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools 
But our spirit will never die 
We will not go down 
In Gaza tonight
