Marcel Cartier - Gaza Survives (Produced by Agent of Change)

(Verse 1) This didn’t start October 7th on a quiet, peaceful Saturday when prison gates blew open, the prelude to tragedy the ones who beaten down and left without dignity are bound to inflict violence without mercy death is terrible, but if you hate the scenes of innocent Israelis being killed on your screens you should loathe the violence unleashed by their state for 75 years against the people they replaced this ain’t a conflict, not between two parties who equal it’s imperial power against indigenous people Genocide Joe, the commander-in-chief of trails of war crimes and volumes of grief the author’s of chapters even darker than most an empire in decline that is trying to stay afloat their proxy in Tel Aviv is just a U.S. base as an American I gotta say it’s not in my name (Hook x2) Gaza is starving, yet Gaza Survives The dream is alive of a Free Palestine We want peace but we need liberation You can’t erase the Palestinian nation (Verse 2) It’s deliberate and indiscriminate how they choose to kill it’s truly sickening and maddening, what this reveals is the long held dream of colonialists not intent with Little Israel, these Zionists are not content with a siege or apartheid they want annexations and a genocide they want the dispossession to be permanent they want the Nakba to never know its ending what is Gaza but the biggest refugee camp an open air prison where humanity stands or goes to die, depending on your view I always choose to stand with the vulnerable few the most anti-Semitic thing would be to equate the Jewish people with the fascist Israeli state because it means accepting Jewish identity is this hatred, genocidal madness, naw that ain’t it (Hook x2)
