Song for Gaza – Michael Heart

WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza) 
(Composed by Michael Heart) 
Copyright 2009 

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

    Is this the same Michael Heart that wrote “Top 100 Most Influential People” with Prophet Muhammad salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa sallam as Number One and Omar Ibn AlKhattab as number 53 (or was it 51, I’m not sure)???

    I’ve had: “Palestine will never be theirs!” playing in my head countless times in my head. My friend use to sing it to us as the original has music.
    Your post reminded me “Palestine” by 786 Boys-yeah the BSB version =)

    First thing, the occupation started
    Palestine, was left broken hearted
    Hands down, you won’t believe the way they laid their wrath on her
    Six feet, under is where they left us
    So bad, the way that they were killing us
    Too bad we’re not afraid to die Their bombs came from the sky

    By the way, thought I’d let you know for the less than 1/2 a min I listened to Michael Heart ^, I had tears in my eyes again…

    You guys’ posts man!
    ma’assalaam…

    Lets Unite…One Voice For Gaza’s People. Maybe If we can stop the zionis’s arrogancy by political diplomacy we can stop it with boycott their poisonus-products. “Buy it means support the zionis”.
    Zionis wont ever have “The Palestinian Sacred Land”, they just a bunch of coward & mad nation which attack and make holocaust for innocent people without weapons. And they “KNOW” and attack Gaza in the Muharram’s Moon. The Moon which all moeslems being prohibited for war, wait till end of january, The Big Retaliation will came to you idf & all zionis people, Trust Me !!!
