THAWRA" is chapter 2 of 7 from the Red Experiment movie by Death Tribe (Dronicon Films). This chapter is dedicated to all those affected by #BeirutExplosion and those revolting against corrupt governments that is bleeding their country dry.
On the afternoon of 4 August 2020, two explosions occurred at the port of the city of Beirut, the capital of Lebanon. The second explosion was extremely powerful, and caused at least 220 deaths, 7,000 injuries, US$10–15 billion in property damage, and left an estimated 300,000 people homeless due to government negligence of 2,750 tonnes of ammonium nitrate stored unsafely at Beirut Port since 2014. Lebanon was already in a very bad Economic Crisis that was exploding in the form of a revolution (Thawra) since October 2019. Bad planning, corruption and the sudden shock of a deadly pandemic (COVID19) have caused the Lebanese currency to crash 85% and consumer prices to jump.
lyrics
Revolt - Take what’s yours
Enough - No more fears
Stand out - Don’t submit
ثورة - كل العالم مهجرة
Beyond Doctrines & Politics, we all bleed red
From the west or the east, in the tomb worms will feast
إنتفض - هيدا مصير بلادك
تمرد - إذا مش الك لا ولادك
Cancerous venomous lust for power
This greed swallows the sun if it could
Making us worthless, slaves to the machine
Damaging our brains, hypnotized with fear
Revolt - take the world by storm
ثورة - صرنا بجهنم الحمرا
So sick of this, religious hatred and blame
Self centered, ignorants, fixed only on their own gains
Over the backs of the innocent, no guilt no shame
Personal glory is their worldly game
Revolt - Ignite - Strike - Destroy
Reaping the sows of the weak
Can't you hear their children weep
I am the voice they will seek
To rip your heart in your sleep
This is the time for revolution
The time we call evolution
This is the day of your damnation
The day for your retribution
Revolt - Take what’s yours
Enough - No more fears
Stand out - Don’t submit
إنتفض - هيدا مصير بلادك
تمرد - إذا مش الك لا ولادك
ثورة ثورة ثورة ثورة
خلصنا خلص
Revolt - Ignite - Strike
ثورة ثورة ثورة ثورة
