Just a few short weeks ago
In a Shul just down the road
My brothers were all shot dead
But the world just chose to see
The gun involved, not you and me
Erasing our identity
Please open up your hearts and see
That I'm hated as a Jew
It's been a part of our history
Why won't you see my view
I am proud of who I am
As a Jew I proudly stand
Against the silencing of
The pain throughout my history
Please give me the choice
Yes, I ask you to hear my voice
Little kids praying in school
For terrorists to be less cruel
Let's call this what it is
With this news, I cannot sleep
Wiping tears, can barely eat
So at least just let me speak
I am proud of who I am
As a Jew I proudly stand
Against the silencing of
The pain throughout my history
Please give me the choice
Yes, I ask you to hear my voice
It's okay to disagree
But don't blame me
For speaking up
Allow me to the truth
That you could do
What if this was you
I'm a Jew
I am proud of who I am
As a Jew I proudly stand
Against the silencing of
The pain throughout my history
Please give me the choice
Yes, I ask you to hear my voice
Please give me the choice
Please allow me to share my voice
