This song goes out to Ahmed. The Jews
don't fear you. We fear God. We don't
give a damn about your evil plan. Cuz no
man could stand up against God's hand.
Not the first to curse us. won't be the
last. And if I were you, I would learn
from the past. Many came before you to
do what's wrong, but they're all long
gone and we still stand strong. Ain't
lived a man named Ham who rose in the
capital of Shine when he walked down the
street. Every man he would meet was
commanded to bow to the ground at his
feet. But there was one guy named Morai,
a Jew who served only God most high. Day
after day, he refused to obey. So
Hermion decided he would make him pay.
But it wasn't enough just to kill one
man. Instead, he devised a grandmaster
plan and persuaded the king to kill
every Jew from the land of Kushar. The
way the whole dude drew random locks to
determine the date. Put our people's
lives in the hands of fate. And it fell
on the 13th day of Adar. They would slay
every Jew both near and far. When we
heard the news, we wept and fasted. Sack
cloth and ashes spread through the
masses. We humbled our hearts all of
Israel. Pray that the wicked her mind
would fail. This song goes out to
the Jews don't fear you. We fear God. We
don't give a damn about your evil plan.
Cuz no man could stand up against God's
hand. Not the first to curse us. Won't
be the last. And if I were you, I would
learn from the past. Many came before
you to do what's wrong. But they're all
long gone. and we still stand strong.
Just could not wait for the date that
the Jewish people would meet their fate
every day. He saw more to hide at the
gate. Then his heart was filled with so
much hate when he complained to his
friends and his wife. They told him
might just take that Jew's life. So he
built the gallows 50 high and tried to
have the king hang the high. But the
queen secretly turned out to be a girl
from a nice Jewish family. So she came
in to the king, told him that someone
was trying to wipe out a king. Enraged
that anyone was threatening the life of
those close to the woman he chose as a
wife. The king asked her, "Who's behind
this plan?" She replied, "This wicked
her is the man." He trembled in tear. He
lost control. He begged Queen Esther to
spare his soul. But the king decided her
mind must die on the gallows that he had
made for more hide. This song goes out.
The Jews don't fear you. We fear God. We
don't give a damn about your evil plan.
Cuz no man could stand up against God's
hand. Not the first to curse us. Won't
be the last. And if I were you, I would
learn from the past. Many came before
you to do us wrong. But they're all long
gone and we still stand strong.
President of Iran. You're just like her
mind. But instead of the gallows, you're
building a bomb. If you want to see
Morcai's family dead, but your
wickedness a drop down on your own head.
Open your ears. We won't disappear. Been
here 3,800
years. We were slaves to Pharaoh, but
God set us free and tossed the Egyptians
in the Red Sea. The wicked by tried
messing with us, but their curse turned
into a blessing. Canaanites tried to
fight us, but all of them had to fall
like Jericho's walls. Goliath the
Philistine talked a lot before he got
knocked out with a slingshot. Assyrians
conquered every other land, but they ran
when they came up against God's hand.
Babylon took us into captivity. We're
back. They've been gone since BCE. And
her mind who decreed every Jew should
die. Got hanged on the gallows. He made
for high. Our enemies fade, but we still
exist. Do you really want to add your
name to the list? You've been warned. If
you don't proceed with caution, we'll
name a food after you like humash. This
song goes out to Ahmed. The Jews don't
fear you, we fear God. We don't give a
damn about your evil plan. Cuz no man
could stand up against God's hand. Not
the first to curse us. Won't be the
last. And if I were you, I would learn
from the past. Many came before you to
do what's wrong. But they're all long
gone and we still stand strong.
