With poignant lyrics, Tankian paints a vivid picture of their suffering and resilience, singing, “Can you tell me dear grandfather of your childhood so far away / You can see the death of laughter in his teared eyes disarray / Can you tell me dear grandmother of your childhood from hunger and pain / Of the orphans you called brothers in her teared eyes disarray.”
As the song reaches its impassioned chorus, Tankian asserts that the struggles endured by all victims of the Armenian Genocide will not be forgotten: “We are the children of all the survivors / Justice will shine on!”
Tankian’s latest release not only reaffirms his commitment to tackling profound themes through music but also underscores his unwavering dedication to using his platform to amplify awareness and provoke meaningful dialogue.
