I wrote a song last night called "Gaz-rael." I will record it later this week but I wanted to share the lyrics with you. Would love your thoughts on it and please share if it speaks to you.

Gaz-rael, for too many a living in hell

Lack of leadership led to a gruesome ground swell

What the hell, you’d think the world would be compelled

To go beyond entrenched ideas that so many have held,

To condemn genocide or concertgoers killed

To have a heart for hostages and homeowners grilled…

…alive, so much hurt to try to survive

Will there ever be a time when these people can thrive?

Caravans carried hope in a hopeless land

Bombed following orders from the IDF man

And there’s blame in this game from Israel to Iran

From Hamas to Hezbollah to the U.S…damn

If we could just give a damn ’bout Palestinians

On a trail or a strip of tears losing their land

I just appeal to you to find your humanity

And condemn innocent death no matter their ID

We need a 2-state solution, respect institutions

End Hamas and not help them with their recruitment

Can’t bomb an idea away when you slay

Families fleeing their homes strapped with their babays

Then the moms and babies found seared together

Can we do better? Is hope as light as a feather?

From Gaza to the West Bank and Ramallah

Callin’ on you Biden, Blinken, and Kamala

To let freedom ring for all the innocents dying

To have the class to stop second class citizens crying

Our children deserve better, we’re all in this together

Our kids deserve a future filled with peace and pleasure

Ain’t no religious text that would justify this

And anyone who believes that is just a lie sis

I know we can do it if we have the will

And just commit to making war the only thing that we kill!
