Chorus: And you wonder why the call it holy land,
cause ya'll keep putting holes up in man,
this needs to end, all of the pain and the suffering,
so that,
all God's people can live again,
and coexist,
and if we ever gonna get this,
peace ya'll mustn't resist

Verse 1: Now everybody wanna piece of the Holy Land,
it's yo, land, my land, here we go again,
now ain't nobody gonna win, if you maintain the war,
cause this, conflict
is what brings the scars,
now everyday, the people gotta breathe the violence,
they come with a voice but they leave in silence,
ain't got no choice, but to react,
and then attack, to get back,
what they lack,
and give back the slack they get from Israel,
just hoping that one day all will be well,
but like Marley said only time will tell,
Palestine, is confined but deserves the bail,
but on earth, the only thing they get is hell,
with no water, they get to live, but with borders,
but in order to see change,
we must be in solidarity,
forget the media, seek clarity,
cause ain't no need for disparity,
I'm hoping that it's clear to you,
cause it's clear to me

Chorus: And you wonder why the call it holy land,
cause ya'll keep putting holes up in man,
this needs to end, all of the pain and the suffering,
so that,
all God's people can live again,
and coexist,
and if we ever gonna get this,
peace ya'll mustn't resist

Verse 2: Peace, Shalom, Salaam,
on every end,
they all got a right to defend,
it's kinda sad when ya enemy use to be ya friend,
it's so, complex, that nobody can mend,
it's like you add and subtract and,
you subtract and you add and,
you get the same dividend,
but the yang ain't nothing, without the yin,
and the price don't come, without the sin,
and the bones don't break, without the bend,
and the now don't exist without the then,
it happened,
but history must not repeat,
cause ya'll got, weaponry, but can't defeat,
a people, with a legacy that's just as deep,
even though they fight with rocks, they still compete,
and press on,
cause the struggle for peace it don't end,
that's why liberation gotta come through the pen

And you wonder why the call it holy land,
cause ya'll keep putting holes up in man,
this needs to end, all of the pain and the suffering,
so that,
all God's people can live again,
and coexist,
and if we ever gonna get this,
peace ya'll mustn't resist

How many times must we say peace
shalom salaam peace
shalom salaam peace,
before dem know that we need peace
shalom salaam peace
shalom salaam peace,
how many times must we say,
we don't need no war,
we don't need no war,
we don't,
before dem know that we mean
we don't need no war,
we don't need no war,
we don't…

Everyday they rise,
to open their eyes,
and to their surprise
they suddenly realize,
they,
got another chance to walk the earth,
got another chance to see a birth,
got another chance to wonder if…
they can close their eyes to wake again,
to see a-nother day, but without dismay,
without the war,
and without the tanks,
and restored homes in Gaza and West Bank,
undemolished,
and were never destroyed,
and the fear,
was never put in girls and boys,
and when they, made noise, and was crying out,
my God, the people would respond to the shout,
instead of, ignoring them,
and being in doubt,
no,
somebody would've helped them out,
what's going on,
when we hear a knock at the door,
and act like,
we never had to knock before,
America, got a lot,
but still want more,
and that's why, the people everyday are crying,
that's why, the people everyday are dying,
that's why, even though the people trying,
it's seems like their efforts are all in vain…
I don't even, know his name,
but I'm seeing his brain,
poured out on the pavement, it's such a shame,
when the,
media,
try to point the blame,
but not,
at the ones who point, and aim,
and shoot,
yo,
and of course they kill,
cause his name was Malik or maybe Khalil,
Mohammed,
they ask no questions they just bomb it,
yo,
until there's nothing left,
there's no breath, no depth in this,
you asking me why I question this,
why I'm obsessed with this,
it's cause,
the Palestinians they wept for this,
and they, like all people,
got a right to exist,
and resist the occupation,
and be a nation, and sometimes be filled with agrivation,
until, they receive emanicaption, and liberation,
Israel be facin', a battle,
and a war they ain't gon ever end,
cause the,
Uprising gonna happen again,
and again and again til Palestine is free,
and they can reap the harvest from their olive trees…
