lyrics

I am a Semite like you used to be
I'm the Semite that no one wants to see
I call you out on your lies
You call me anti-Semite, and flip the reality

I am the Semite
I'm the refugee
Living in your ghetto
Dying to be free

I am the Semite who still has to face
White people wipe his people and take their place
Demonize their race
I wonder in this case
Who would the anti-Semite be

I am the Semite
I'm the refugee
Living in your ghetto
Dying to be free

You force me to fight
What else can I do
I'm not anti-Semite
Not an anti-Jew
I'm a Jew more than you
My genes can prove
or take a look at me

you will see the Semite
you will see the refugee
Living in your ghetto
Dying to be free
