In the morning sky, before sunrise
Under her watchful eye, they make it through another night
And as the dawn subsides, and her children rise
Will they wake to freedoms light, or is justice too blind
To have seen, that what's been done
Its to much to bear by anyone
And to have seen, that what's been done
And to not help and just to stall, it's a shame upon us all.
Gaza, let me put my arms around you
Lift you to the stars
And watch you fly away, fly away
Gaza, although I'm there with you
I'll never forget to,
Work for better, Work for better days
Better days, yeah.
And as her day rolls by, she's focused on how to survive
With every step of every stride, her head is held up with pride
But look into her eyes, her children's lives
How they find a will to survive,
When freedom's denied.
And they see that what's been done
Its to much to bear by anyone
And to have seen, that what's been done
And to not help and just to stall, it's a shame upon us all.
Though I'm not there with you now,
Aint no way no how, that I'm gonna let you down
With everything that I am, Imma do the best that I can
Until your able to stand.
And as the day turns to night, and the call of the prayer recites
Prayer's their only source of light,
In the darkness of the night
And as she sings her kids to sleep
Praying that their dreams will be sweet
Cause dreams are last retreat from reality
