Lyrics

[Chorus]
We all want peace
We all want ceasefire
We all want peace
We all want ceasefire
Ceasefire now
Ceasefire now
Ceasefire now
Ceasefire now
We all want peace (Mama, I need you now)
Taken from me, but I wanna be free
(Oh, Mama, I need you now)
Just a kid tryna be, when will you cease?
[Verse 1]
Yeah, from Gaza to Gadigal
We keep it radical
Where's Tony's morals?
I think on sabbatical
How did this catapult?
Slinging my shot, like it or not
I keep it factual
They killin' kids
While we kick it back and scroll
Tell me what gives?
Are you not mad at all?
This sink or swim
I'm jumping in
I'ma be screaming like "cannonball!"
[Verse 2]
I've seen more from beneath the smoke
Than your dreams entail, dread and hope
I heard their cries when the lights go out
Laughing once, they ain't breathing now
Midsummer dreams on which I've grown
Bleeding out, losing hope
My ancestry ain't once been wrong
You're just a disease, don't call this home
[Chorus]
Say you'll fight
Our land, our right
Till the end of time
Until we're all free
From the river to the sea
We all want peace, ceasefire (Mama, I need you now)
Taken from me, but I wanna be free
Peace, ceasefire
Ceasefire now, ceasefire now, ceasefire now (Oh, Mama, I need you now)
Just a kid tryna be, when will you cease?
[Verse 3]
Say we're born equal while bombing our people
Take another life for some profit
Death in custody, another nakba
While they're lining their pockets
Vote for these so-called leaders who always betray us
I guess they're all puppets
Enough is enough with our death and destruction
We fight for peace, love and justice
[Verse 4]
Fear no man, but the one above رأسي
None made of flesh could come and ever harm me
No knife could scar me
No bullet can jar me
I fear the Lord, how could I fear armies?
With that blood on your hands
I still do my dance
I'm singing my chants
Right here on my land
These're my people, worth their weight in gold
Come kill my body, but can't take my soul
[Verse 5]
Walk in solidarity, there is no apathy
On invasion day, break the chains, set us free
Speaking some equality, spite all the policies
See us create another shared victory, yeah
Well, it's a cry for peace
Ceasefire in streets, tensions release
It's time to speak, no broken dreams
Let the war cease, we all standing free
[Chorus]
Say you'll fight
Our land, our right
Till the end of time
Until we're all free
From the river to the sea
[Verse 6]
Yeah, yah, yah
Check it
In one hand, they're claiming human rights
The other hand, they're taking human life
Say democracy, but giving no choice
Freedom of speech, but silencing voice
Hypocrisy reeks, they bombing for peace
No water, no food, got nothing to eat
Actions speak loud, talking is cheap
Ceasefire now, may there be peace, yuh
[Verse 7]
Yah, many killed by your hand
Way more than you could understand
Even your kids see what you've got planned
So I've got my fist up, get off their land
Put up a peace sign, they confiscate
Yell out ceasefire, they take my pay
You can do anything to save your face
I got your name down in history's page
Uh
[Chorus]
Say you'll fight
Our land, our right
Till the end of time
Until we're all free
From the river to the sea
Just a kid tryna be, when will you cease?
[Bridge]
You can't break us
Our resistance justified
Can't colonise our hearts
We won't be terrorised
We'll keep fighting for stolen lands you occupy
Revolution never dies, for we will always rise
Land you have to kill for
It will never be yours
We will always rise
Land you have to kill for
It will never be yours
[Verse 8]
فلسطينية أنا أصلي
إيدي ع الكعبة ما بترك أرضي
صهيوني ماسك مفتاحي
في إيدي قلبي وسلاحي
You better run
جايين
Cowards with guns
خايفين نحرر هالارض
راجعين ولك هذا فرض
[Verse 9]
Yo, 1788, so much pain
1948, ain't shit changed but the names
Peep the game
Played the same
Burn the demons
Down with flames
They're pushing World War 3 for the profit sheet
Breaking our bodies
Can't break dreams
2024
Beat the drums of war
But we don't want your war
[Verse 10]
The world watches while Gaza gets bombed
We all want peace, but the war carries on, for how long?
And why do innocent children die?
Did a mother have to cry?
Did a father have to curse? Why?
New corps, hypnotise, feed us with lies
But the truth is in the skies, when there's nowhere to run
And as the smoke clears up
They did it to colonise
It's genocide
Ceasefire
[Outro]
Peace, ceasefire (Mama, I need you now)
Taken from me, but I wanna be free
Peace, ceasefire
Ceasefire now, ceasefire now, ceasefire now (Oh, Mama, I need you now
Just a kid tryna be, when will you cease?
