  • (Woo)
    Yeah

    The people, they won't leave
    What is threatenin' about divesting and wantin' peace?
    The problem isn't the protests, it's what they're protesting
    It goes against what our country is funding
    (Hey) Block the barricade until Palestine is free
    (Hey) Block the barricade until Palestine is free
    When I was seven, I learned a lesson from Cube and Eazy-E
    What was it again? Oh yeah, fuck the police (woo)

    Actors in badges protecting property
    And a system that was designed by white supremacy (brrt)
    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, CUFI, and all the companies
    You see, we sell fear around the land of the free
    But this generation here is about to cut the strings
    You can ban TikTok, take us out the algorithm
    But it's too late, we've seen the truth, we bear witness
    Seen the rubble, the buildings, the mothers and the children
    And all the men that you murdered, and then we see how you spin it
    Who gets 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
    Screamin', "Free Palestine" 'til they're home at last

    We see the lies in 'em
    Claimin' it's antisemitic to be anti-Zionist
    I've seen Jewish brothers and sisters out there and ridin' in
    Solidarity and screamin', "Free Palestine" with them
    Organizin', unlearnin' and finally cuttin' ties with
    A state that's gotta rely on an apartheid system
    To uphold an occupyin' violent
    History been repeating for the last seventy-five
    The Nakba never ended, the colonizer lied (woo)
    If students in tents posted on the lawn
    Occupyin' 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? (Hey-hey)
    Destroyin' every college in Gaza and every mosque
    Pushin' everyone into Rafah and droppin' bombs
    The blood is on your hands, Biden, we can see it all
    And fuck no, I'm not votin' for you in the fall (woo)
    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 (hey, woo)

    What happened to the artist? What d'you got to say?
    If I was on a label, you could drop me today
    I'd be fine with it 'cause the heart fed my page
    I want a ceasefire, fuck a response from Drake (woo)
    What you willin' to risk? What you willin' to give?
    What if you were in Gaza? What if those were your kids?
    If the West was pretendin' that you didn't exist
    You'd want the world to stand up and the students finally did, let's get it (woo)

    Brrt
