If I had any tears left, I would cry.

(I just hold my breath and hope my emotions would give up before my lungs)

In this place where I live

(Day in day out)

Everything is great

(Day in day out)

Here I stay

(Day in day out)

(Day in day out)

We raise a toast

(Day in day out)

Everything is from above

(Day in day out)

Get me twice

(Day in day out)

Where I live, we got gold medals in running to shelters

World champions in finding long terms solutions.

מצפירת הזיכרון מזיקוקי העצמאות מאזעקות הלא למות מארטילרית תותחנים בום

If people really want to understand what it's like, Jimbo Jay's songs manages to catch the very Israeli nuances of trying to live and raise kids in this crazy place.

The creator lives in Otef Aza (Ghaza Envelope), an area with mostly small farming communities. The city, Sderot, started as a refugee camp for refugees from Morocco. During the worst years, they were bombed an average of 3-4 missiles a day.

All songs were published BEFORE October 23. This is the reality in the south, for the last 30 years.

7 years ago - We left TLV (Hebrew+ISL (Israeli sign language), sub: heb, eng)

10 months ago - Booms

This is a perfect song, capturing the way parents try to keep their kids' innocence despite everything.

("The winter came early, the noise that you heard was a thunder"

"Let's play a game/ It's just you and me/ Here, every summer they come again

Booms

Baby booms

Let's drive away from here, no matter where to.

Booms,

The Booms started again")
