Description

Lyrics

You are like the olive tree Just like you were meant to be Though your roots dig deep into the land They were uprooted by a savage hand But the ties were forged through centuries A bond so strong and fixed in history You are the land and the land is you A solid unity they never can undo Cherish your leaves, let your branches bear your fruits All you need to do is protect and feed your roots The old will die, but the young will learn The road is long and it will twist and turn But when you know your destiny You know where you need to be And we always will believe It's our Right to Return - Black on white they wrote that vow But to act on it was not allowed Empty words like a carrot on a stick Ink is fading as the clock goes on to tick Dispossession and racial oppression Every psycho form of Zionist aggression Was condoned by that very same force Though they say our rights are still endorsed We don't need your words, they're just empty talk Why don't you just keep on talking while we walk the walk The old have died, but the young are strong We know who we are and where we belong With the key in our hand We'll come home to our land We know we will always stand for our Right of Return
