We Will Not Go Down (Gaza Tonight)

We Will Not Go Down (Song For Gaza)"

A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they're dead or alive

They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who's wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight 

Hello, guys....

This song is for Gaza, for Palestinians out there, for muslims, for brothers, for every blood spilled, for every kid massacred and every women murdered, for humanity.

This song for me is basically a very very sad song, which is very great to remind humans that there's still real war in this world, where people died everyday, where bodies lay down, where there's a place in the world that is running out of light of hope. This is real situation.

What i like so much from the song is basically how Michael Heart described very details on what is going on right now in Gaza, Palestina. He described very well from the beginning. 

A blinding flash of white light

This is a real situation. As real as seeing your friend in school everyday. This beginning part straightly tells us the cruelty of war, the darkness that surrounds Gaza.

They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

Once more, it tells us how the Israel people deal with Palestinians. How they use such an incredibly massive and destroying weapon to annihilate Palestinians, killing them. It's true, that the war has been very annihilating that very little of Palestina's place remain still. Even the area of Palestina has been overtaken mostly by Israels. 

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

This one is my favourite. It's the truth that we, as humans, as muslims, as brothers, as anything else, would not stand still watching this happening. We won't be weak when they destroys our mosque. We will stand strong even our houses and schools is destroyed. Nothing can kill us. Nothing can kill our spirit of living. We will fight.

Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who's wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

When we are chatting to people, playing gadgets, watching TVs, reading comics, eating lots of food, they have to hold their tears and blood, where their mothers, brothers, sisters and babies is being massacred massively. Without many food supplies, without computers, without phones, without hope. What most of muslims are doing now? Helping? Or just relaxing or even didn't know. Is this really us? Is this really how muslims are? No! We are not like this. We too, should not just stand and watch. We should stand and help! Stand and Fight! Their leaders, Our leaders, Human leaders, for years, supporting, debating on which is right, and which isn't. Well, look at the fact! They're are debating agains Israel! Jewish! People with high intellegent! People who will mostly win on debating! They're jewish! That's a waste of time, since while they're endlessly debating, thousands, ten thousands of our brothers, sisters, bombed, leaving body and blood everywhere!

I believe you know Palestine is worth saving. You know Palestine should be Independent! You know Palestine should be free! You know Palestine should live....

But now i ask, do you have the bravery to do the right thing?

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight
