Following the events of the past 7 months, I felt a deep
need to put my emotions to work, to turn adversity into art.
So I set out on a journey of passion and purpose to create
a music video that symbolizes solidarity and resilience. As I
put my heart into this creation, it reminds me of how art
transcends borders and amplifies voices.
That’s why I decided to enter the “falastinvision” contest,
where I hope it can amplify the voices of those fighting for
justice and change. Through their stories, I want to show
the harsh reality of their everyday lives and ignite a fire of
empathy and understanding within the hearts of viewers
around the world. But awareness alone isn’t enough.
I wanted to raise money to support the Qudaih family from
Gaza in their fight for safety and freedom. I’ve been closely
following their heartbreaking story for a couple of months
now, and they’ve become like family to me. I made them a
promise to do everything in my power to save them, and
I’m fully committed to keeping that promise.
Song Title: Until The End ft. Ruffian Rugged
Until The End ft. Ruffian Rugged’ – Nadia Sadok
[Intro]
(Angela Davis:) “At a challenging moment in our history, let us remind ourselves that
we the hundreds of thousands, the millions of women, trans people, men and
youth who are here at the Women’s March, we represent the powerful forces of change that are determined to prevent the dying cultures of racism, hetero-
patriarchy from rising again.”
[Verse 1]
You set the world on fire
And plugged us into wires
How long will you hold us down?
Everybody with talent got stuck underground
‘Cause we won’t live forever
So get your shit together
We’ve got way bigger problems
We don’t wanna die, starting at the bottom
[Chorus]
You keep lyin’, you keep lyin’ to yourself
If you ever thought that you need anybody else
They be tryin’ to mess with our heads
But we will fight until the end
You keep lyin’, you keep lyin’ to yourself
‘Cause your mind ripped like the flyer on the shelf
I am tryin’, I’m on fire but I’m tense
We will fight until the end
[Verse 2]
I will fight ’til the end,
I got my right to defend
If I had wings I could fly,
But we die on the fence
A hungry mob is an angry mob,
These are hunger games
We want a change
Got sidetracked, stuck, and framed
You ain’t superior
You ain’t the people
And we ain’t illegal
Between shades of evil
Raise no demon, stay pangean
Stop torturing one another now
What’s power to the people if we’re running out of water
[Chorus]
You keep lyin’, you keep lyin’ to yourself
If you ever thought that you need anybody else
They be tryin’ to mess with our heads
But we will fight until the end
You keep lyin’, you keep lyin’ to yourself
‘Cause your mind ripped like the flyer on the shelf
I am tryin’, I’m on fire but I’m tense
We will fight until the end
[Verse 3]
I will fight till di end fi di lie whe dem tell, reunite any gang
Inna di night with a skeng there, ’cause I shall revenge, ’cause di life a means hell
A hungry mob is an angry mob, well these are hunger games
Gonna riot ’cause we want a change, but anytime we reproduce di same damn
mistakes
Ev’ry man fi himself, and ev’ry girl fi herself
Dem waan dash weh di water outta di well, but economy monopoly a dash weh
our wealth
Dash weh our health care, dash weh our wealth care, hop inna di Bentley don’t
give us help, blame refugee camps deh, fuck you, righteous a stand up and stand clear
[Outro]
(Angela Davis:) “Those who still defend the supremacy of white male hetero-
patriarchy had better watch out. Resistance on the ground, resistance in the
classrooms, resistance on the job, resistance in our art and in our music. This is
just the beginning and in the words of the inimitable Ella Baker: ‘We who believe in
freedom cannot rest until it comes.”
