Palestinian Children by Peyoti for President

All of the pictures left unpainted
All of the games they left unplayed
All the laughter in the playground
All of the art, they never made
Ghost faces of a million, Palestinian Children

All of those voices left in silence
All with their names written in kind
Lest their bodies pulled from rubble
Lifeless, empty dolls to find
Ghost faces of a million, Palestinian Children

What of the songs they've never written?
What of the words they'll never sing?
And the darkness of the nightmare
Inescapable that brings..
The Ghost faces of a million, Palestinian Children

I hear the crying helpless children
Gods most precious and most dear
I hear them begging for a reason..
“How could you ever leave us here?”
I close the eyelids of a million, Palestinian Children

So what do we really stand for?
Is this how our future's made?
& will we ever find the courage
to stand up! Unafraid!
I tear-away the persecution of the Palestinian Children

Rise Up and be the guardians
Of the Palestinian Children

To respect our obligation
Every creed and every nation
Cause every soul deserves protection
Save the Palestinian Children
