They cannot kill the heart of Palestine
Refugees came running from Hitlers rule
Save these victims from a death so cruel!
"Never again!" were the words they muttered
"We must defend our land" soon they uttered
Building your home on someone else's land
Planting your flag within Palestine sand
It was your plan, to steal and then expand
From those who reached out and gave you a hand
They said they designated a safe space
Where you won't be attacked. So go! Make haste
Relocate quickly to where it is safe
Unfairly bombed before reaching that place
Many innocent children run and play
While bombs say hi to them every day
Even those in wheel chairs who move with haste
Bombed again before reaching the safe place
Every child who sees his family die
Knows the days of when they were mistreated
They are stricken with heart break as they cry
Grow up to be the next Hamas leader
Social media shows blood that is spilled
Women, children, even newlyweds killed
Babies, prematures and bundles unborn
Never lived their life for they were soon mourned
International courts did not succeed
In saving lives and bringing worldly peace
Lack of love and human rights is portrayed
Through our Society's moral decay
The stale air smells of rubble, blood and fear
As nations march out supporting your side
Oh Palestine! Weep not for peace is near!
And soon there will be no more genocide
Fireworks of death rained on the Gazan sky
Souls journey to heaven saying goodbye
They can try all they want to break your spine
They cannot kill the heart of Palestine!
