On This Land

سوف نبقى هنا
كي يزول الألم
سوف نحيا هنا
سوف يحلو النغم
موطني، موطني
موطني ذا الإباء
موطني، موطني
موطني يا أنا
I hate that I'm more comfortable in English
But everyday I tell myself that it's a privilege
'Cause I can talk about the way my people living
And I'll do it on this beat 'cause I know you'll wanna listen
I seen children with a vision
Turn to numbers on your TV screen
I seen dreams and hopes of a college degree
Turn to dust and get buried up under all this debris, ah
Our biggest weapon is our family trees
We didn't choose to live this life overseas
I hear the sounds of the bombs in my sleep
But I never in my life heard the sound of defeat, 'cause
We are a nation of displaced dreamers
Heritage keepers
Overpaid leaders
By definition we are overachievers
Underpaid teachers of life, can you hear us, ah
And if you have a problem with me speaking up
Tell my assistant, 'cause I don't give a fuck
Imagine thinking you can censor us?
ما مننساش شهدائنا يا سيدي
وعلى أرض الوطن تلاقيني
ما مننساش شهدائنا يا سيدي
وعلى أرض الوطن تلاقيني
حتى لو سدوا الميدان
حتى لو سرقوا العنوان
تراب القدس الغالية، بيت حنينة الطيبة
آه يا بلدي ما بننساك
تراب القدس الغالية، بيت حنينة الطيبة
آه يا بلدي ما بننساك
