I write...so therefor I am a Writer.


She's forced in that direction
He's forced that way
Some people think they have- perfection
Ruining other peoples' day
The People are dying
The children are scared to close- their eyes
Most of them are already flying
Before their eyes close we hear- sighs
The Parents always weep
Their children are scared to go - back to sleep
Because they fear they may never- again
That it will be their end
What can we do?
What will we do?
Are we going to play dead?
Are we going back to bed?
No, I'm not!
I'm now hot
With anger and fury
What was happening to me?
Why was I sitting down?
Why did I make Palestine frown?
I'm going to stand
And put my Hand in Your Hand
One voice can Change the world
I'm sure I'll make it pearled
With beauty and happiness
Make the poor girl a princess!
I'm not going to whine
I'm going to help Palestine!
I'm not about to resign
I will make her SHINE!!!
The Parents always weep
Their children are scared to go - back to sleep
Because they fear they may never- again
That it will be their end
What can we do?
What will we do?
Are we going to play dead?
Are we going back to bed?
No, I'm not!
I'm now hot
With anger and fury
What was happening to me?
Why was I sitting down?
Why did I make Palestine frown?
I'm going to stand
And put my Hand in Your Hand
Come on everyone
Why will you run?
Why don't you at least start - trying?
At least to make Palestine stop- crying!!!!!
What can we do?
What will we do?
Are we going to play dead?
Are we going back to bed?
No, I'm not!
I'm now hot
With anger and fury
What was happening to me?
Why was I sitting down?
Why did I make Palestine frown?
I'm going to stand
And put my Hand in Your Hand
I'll help you sister
forgive me sister


The author's comments:
This song is dedicated to Palestine. A neighboring country to mine that is suffering greatly, they changed the country name to Israel.
In the end of the song, I called Palestine a sister to my country because in the past they were once one and people always talked metaphorically that Palestine is a girl.
Thank you for reading and please tell me what you think!
