"Can't Unsee It"

Blazing Reader,

Martin Kerr outdid himself with his new music video, "Can't Unsee It," which opens with:

Living in this world
Sure doesn’t feel good
People keep suffering
Powerless to stop it

Everybody’s gotta pick a side and dig in
Are we gonna make a little time for healing?

He follows up with the stirring chorus, evocative of the Gaza genocide:

When you said we're building peace, well I believed it
Oh but these days there's just no way to guarantee it
So you send your thoughts and prayers
As all your bombs fly through the air
Now I've seen the children die, I can't unsee it
I can't unsee it

The haunting folk melody is as moving as the lyrics. You can watch the official "Can't Unsee It" music video on Martin Kerr's YouTube channel or listen to the single on Spotify.
