Lyrics:

غنائي يصدح في الساحات

صوتي
لنْ تَكْتُمَ صوتي
 ..إنّهُ الآنَ وترٌ وحيدٌ يُقاوم .. 
كحبلِ غسيلٍ لا تَطالُهُ الريحُ ..
صوتي .. ينضحُ في المساماتِ
وإنْ سُدّت مساماتي .. 
صوتي في زندي
وإن قُطِّعَتْ أوْصالي
صوتي رنيمُ القلبِ ..
 .. وإنْ أُسْكِتَ نبْضُهُ ..
صوتي مرآةُ روحي ..
وإن استلَبْتَ روحي  .. 
غنائي يصدحُ في الميادينِ
شمساً لا تنطفئُ في الحناجرِ

Using site recordings predominantly from Palestine and the arab world, Checkpoint 303 constructs soundscapes that weave cinematic audio with experimental sound processing and complex rhythms. Through its compositions, collected sounds and noise, Checkpoint 303 spreads a message of peace and a call for the respect of human rights. Contrasting with the mainstream media's exclusive depiction of violence and suffering in the middle-east, CP-303's sound collages also report on the heroic hope that subsists in the region as well as the seemingly banal but ever so meaningful little things that embody a daily search for normality in a state of emergency.

أجد نفسي في الموسيقى، أكثر ممّا أجد نفسي في هذا العالم.
