[Charlie Chaplin]

The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish

[Verse 1]

Is it just a dream? Am I a fool for trying?

I stand defiant but my enemy's the tallest giant

Will my visions be reality? They tell me never

I wanna feel the unity that Malcolm felt in Mecca

I wonder if it made sense in his last moments

People don't value the soul cause they can't hold it

Find something real beyond death and misery

And understand the present in the context of history

It's been established Sykes-Picot was a bitter marriage

Since the day Thomas Edward Lawrence tricked the Arabs

Please be loyal till we're deep in soil

You can ask Mosaddegh about BP Oil

This is a battle that many better men have died fighting

But I hope to give an insight through my writing

My pen fires at the men who defend liars

I send fire till the end of your empire

[Hook: Sanasino]

We will fight to live

We will not give up

We will not give in

We will rise

And through the blood and tears

We will not give up

We will not give in

We will rise

[Verse 2]

Guess who's back, descendant of the occupied

I represent the sentiments of many men you've colonised

The President is eloquent but he's never been on my side

Melanin's irrelevant 'cause everything was prophecised

There was a time when they talked about the Arab Nation

Broke our good leaders, the royal map was a fabrication

Took your Keffiyeh and changed it to a fashion statement

You sat with Satan, Camp David means assassination

Peace in your imagination, that's not real

I've been where Arafat got poisoned and Sadat got killed

I'm not a martyr, just a man without a Masters

Or a master runaway slave, it's freedom I am after

This is a battle that many better men have died fighting

But I hope to give an insight through my writing

My pen fires at the men who defend liars

I send fire till the end of your empire

[Hook: Sanasino]

[Sanasino]

Like Zajel, the peaceful dove of Palestine

I will fly, I will rise

Far beyond the seventh sky

I will break free, and soar through the lies

Seeking truth, seeking the justice that is mine

The justice that is mine

I will stand, I will climb

I will spread my wings

Elevate and rise

I will rise, I will rise

We will rise
