The problem isn’t the protests it’s what they’re protesting Cause it goes against what our country is funding Block the barricade until Palestine is free Block the barricade until Palestine is free When I was 7 I learned a lesson from Cube and Eazy E What was it again? oh yea fuck the police Actors in badges protecting property And a system that was designed by white supremacy But the people are in the streets You can pay off meta you can’t pay off me Politicians who serve by any means AIPAC and the interests Of the companies You see puppeteers behind the land of the free But this generation here is about to cut the strings You can ban tik Tok take us out the algothim But it’s too late we’ve seen the truth we bare witness We’ve seen the ruble the buildings the mothers the children And all the men that you murdered and then we see how they spin it Who gets to the right to defend and who gets the right of resistance Has always been about dollars and the color of your pigment But White supremacy is finally on blast Screaming free Palestine until they’re home at last We see the lies in them Claiming it’s anti-semetic to be anti-zionist I’ve seen jewish brothers and sisters out there and riding In solidarity and screaming free Palestine with em Organizing, unlearning and finally cutting ties with a State that’s gotta rely on an apartheid system To uphold an occupying violent History been repeating for the last 75 The Nakba never ended, the colonizer lied If some kids in tents, posted on the lawn occupying the quad is really against the law And a reason to call in the police and their squad where does genocide land in your definition huh? destroying every college in Gaza and every mosque pushing everyone into rafah and dropping bombs The blood is on your hands Biden, we can see it all And fuck no I’m not voting for you in the fall Undecided, you can’t twist the truth The people out here united never be defeated when Freedom’s on the horizon Yet the music industry’s quiet complicit in their platform of silence What happened to the artist what do you got to say? If I was on a label, you could drop me today And be fine with it cause the heart fed my page I want a ceasefire fuck a response from drake What you willing to risk? What you willing to give? What if you were Gaza? what if those were your kids? If the west was pretending that you didn’t exist You’d want the world to stand up And the students finally did Let’s get it
