The Whispered Charge

In the land of Gaza, under the sun, No water to drink, no place to run. Their homes are gone, turned into dust, But they keep going, because they must. No food to eat, no light to see, No medicine, no safety to be. They wait in lines, for hours each day, Hoping for help that’s far away. Since last year’s October's start, They’ve lived with pain but kept their heart. Through all the struggles, their hope stays strong, Dreaming of peace, where they belong.

I’ve been running from the ghosts that keep calling my name, Chasing smoke and whiskey just to numb the pain. The wheels keep spinning but the road don’t end, I’ve burned every bridge just to build them again. And there’s a fire in my chest that I can’t outrun, A storm on the horizon where the westward sun. Run like the river, wild and free, With the wind at my back and the past chasing me. Every scar, every mile, every song I’ve sung, A story of a life lived on the run. Oh, I’ll keep moving, ‘til my heart beats still, Run like the river, I always will.

[Verse] Dinner's on the table hearts so full and bright Stories spin around us in the soft twilight Laughter echoes in the halls a love so strong In this little house we know we all belong [Verse 2] Morning light filters in waking sleepy eyes Sunrise paints the skyline with a sweet surprise Coffee brews the day begins with cheerful noise In this life together we’ve made our choice [Chorus] Family ties that bind us tight Through the dark and through the light Hand in hand we’ll face the fight Family always feels so right [Verse 3] Children playing in the yard with dreams so wide Parents standing watchful with that twinkle-eyed pride Memories of yesterday etched in our minds In every corner love’s what you will find [Bridge] When the storms gather and the nights grow cold We lean on each other till the dawn unfolds Hearts woven together unbreakable gold In family’s arms we are bold [Verse 4] Even when the miles stretch across the land We find a way to bridge them hand in hand Seasons change and moments fade yet still we stand Together forever part of this grand plan

[Verse] Snowflakes falling pure and bright Candles flicker in the night Warm hands holding loved ones close Hush now feel the winter's ghost [Verse] Fireplace crackles tales to spin Stockings hung with joy within Laughter echoes through the hall Magic lights in shadows fall [Chorus] Sing a song of holiday lights Guide us through the longest nights Hearts aglow with love so true Season's wonder just for you [Verse] Sleigh bells chime a dreamer's tune Silent whispers under moon Wrapped in scarves we'd never roam This is what we call our home [Chorus] Sing a song of holiday lights Guide us through the longest nights Hearts aglow with love so true Season's wonder just for you [Bridge] Stars above they paint the sky Memories we'll never buy Cherish now and hold them tight In the warmth of holiday light

[Verse] While the dreamers sleep in blinds of gold The wolves of greed are getting bold They gnaw our rights and sell our soul And we just watch the dark unfold [Verse 2] The fires burn the waters rise Truth lies hidden 'neath disguise We’re busy chasing vacant highs Ignoring desperate Muffled cries [Chorus] Wake up now before it’s gone We’ve gotta sing a battle song Voice of thunder loud and strong Or our freedom won’t last long [Verse 3] They wage their wars on borrowed time With jaded hearts and twisted rhyme They'll trade away the days sublime Leaving echoes of our prime [Chorus] Wake up now before it’s gone We’ve gotta sing a battle song Voice of thunder loud and strong Or our freedom won’t last long [Bridge] The silent ones must break the mold The path to justice must be bold In this fight we can't be sold Come together hearts of gold

[Verse] We sit in shadows eyes half closed While power brokers choose our woes The ship is sinking while we dream Silent screaming in a noisy stream [Verse 2] They sell us lies wrapped in dismay Kicking stones along the way While bitter weeds grow in our yard It's time to act it's not that hard [Chorus] What we stand to lose we must defend This world's not theirs to twist and bend Don't let apathy be our guide Rise and fight for what's inside [Verse 3] They pave the forests build with greed Our cries for justice go in heed The ground is cracking under foot We must wake up and cast the root [Bridge] Our ancestors fought for freedoms fire Don't let their battles now expire We're stronger when we shout as one The silent protest has begun [Verse 4] Heed the call and raise your voice It's time to make a daring choice They won't silence what we expose The wind of change in every prose

[Verse] You sit in silence while the world turns gray The wolves are howling they're hungry for prey Your freedoms crumble like ancient clay Stand up and fight don't just waste away [Chorus] Wake up brother sister open your eyes The fire's climbing burning all disguise There’s a storm brewing in these clear skies Freedom is fading under all their lies [Verse 2] We've seen the promises fall through the crack While puppet masters stab our dreams and laugh They’ve chained our voices buried the facts It’s time we fight to get our lives back [Chorus] Wake up brother sister open your eyes The fire's climbing burning all disguise There’s a storm brewing in these clear skies Freedom is fading under all their lies [Bridge] The ink's still wet on our future’s page It's not too late to unleash our rage Tear down the walls break out of this cage Hold hands together light up the stage [Verse 3] Our hope is fragile our spirit strong If we just sit here we're aiding the wrong Asleep in daylight for far too long Rise up resist where we all belong

[Verse] There's a man in a suit with a dangerous plan Selling fear to the folks who don't understand National guard marching to his twisted beat Freedom's a memory fading in the heat [Verse 2] Promises of power whispers in the air Liberty held hostage by a grim affair A shadow on the move like a creeping vine Distant drums warning us of the thin red line [Chorus] Oh The rising tide of shadows Will quench the spark of dreams Drowning truth in echo chambers In a whirlwind of evil schemes [Verse 3] Uniforms and rifles on the city streets Crushing dissent under tyrant's feet Fear and control is their only charade But we stand together Unafraid [Verse 4] From the hearts of the people A clarion call Resist the whip Defy the walls We won’t be tools for their master’s plot For hope in unity We’ve fought and fought [Chorus] Oh The rising tide of shadows Will quench the spark of dreams Drowning truth in echo chambers In a whirlwind of evil schemes

[Verse] The General's marching through the square Uniforms shining in the glare Whispers in shadows loud and clear The people's message rings with fear [Verse 2] Power's shifting through the hands Dreams of freedom start to bend Eyes are watching hearts contend The Constitution's on the mend [Chorus] Don't let the General take the town Don’t let oppression take you down Raise your voice and make a sound Justice's light must now be found [Verse 3] Flags are waving Masks unveiled Stories in history they’ve derailed Through the streets the anger spills Fueled by whispers Fed by thrills [Bridge] Dreams are shattered in the night When the General takes his flight Promising a golden dawn But shadows linger long and drawn [Chorus] Don’t let the General take the town Don’t let oppression take you down Raise your voice and make a sound Justice's light must now be found

[Verse] दिल दीवाना खो गया तेरे हुस्न की झंकार में सारा हिंदुस्तान बसा है गोरी तेरे प्यार में [Verse 2] प्रीत की रीत बरसती म्हारु देख वो राजस्थान में सारा हिंदुस्तान बसा है गोरी तेरे प्यार में [Chorus] तू है चांदनी रातों की रोशनी तेरी बिंदिया चमके जैसे तारों की बातों में [Verse 3] मोहब्बत की छाछ में चूरा है ये दिल तेरे नाम की लहरों पे लिखा है जो सिलसिला [Bridge] दिल की धड़कन बनके तू समा गई मेरे ख्वाबों की दुनिया तू ही बसा गई [Chorus] तू है चांदनी रातों की रोशनी तेरी बिंदिया चमके जैसे तारों की बातों में
