Invincible (Ilana Weaver) è una rapper che vive a Detroit. Ha passato l'infanzia in Israele e si è trasferita in Michigan con la famiglia nel 1988.

Invincible  No Compromises


A sette anni ha imparato l'inglese ascoltando l'hip hop. Nel giro di due anni ha cominciato a scrivere canzoni in inglese.

Nonostante le origini israeliane, Invincible è una convinta sostenitrice della causa palestinese e in questa canzone canta della necessità della resistenza "fino al giorno in cui non ci sarà più bisogno di combattere".
Free The P!
Invincible, listen
Spittin', and I ain't gotta get permission

Metamorphosis
No better, Metta fall for this
Lyrics to part my lips, paint you a self portrait
Did my people make it out of Auschwitz
In order to become our own oppressors?
Present situation to torture us
A fortress is built, twenty-five feet tall
I think that's five feet of concrete
Apartheid wall
It's called a security fence
But all I see as far as the eyes stretches
Are superiority complexes
New dawn, and awakening
Eyes wide open to the lies spoken paper thin
No life times frozen
Keep changing, no faking or playing
Pretend I'm hoping
To step outside without choking on breaking wind
From factory smoke, this is sulfur not sess
Schools closing chapters, getting ulcers from the stress
Breathin' that gives you asthma is hazardous to your health
Just to be an inhabitant in the city where you rest
It's a quest
For the spirit of resistance
You can hear it in the distance if you listen
Persistence
So what we fighting for?
The day were you ain't even got to fight no more
And that's the vision
Risen up to heights we soar
I hope I opened up a can of worms
With all these anecdotes
Cause you can never candy-coat the truth
And once you know it, proof
Then you can't ignore
Yo' Jay, equip 'em with this handy quote

At the risk of soundin' ridiculous
True revolutionaries guided by feelings of love
Give a hundred percent
Demolish buildings and spillin' civilians' blood
Collective punishment
But you know what I meant

The new dawn
Sun rising on the horizon
It's a new day
Every opportunity lies, in the crisis
I'm giving this my all when I write this
We in it for the long haul
No Compromises

{Revolution x 6}

Slap a cop like Zsa Zsa Gabor
I'm ready like Helen to tell 'em I want a divorce
In the wedding vows they promised to protect and serve, but
We battered wives don't even get respect we deserve (analyze)
Increased police presence
Adolescents get sentenced as felons
And there's never no preventative measures
To help us change the conditions, respectfully
Without putting the life on the line
For this industry to referee
There's a discrepancy, of good cop bad cop
Every cop operates when injustice is the back drop
So for the have-nots
Survival is padlocked
Inside of the jackpot
We ripping it to shreds
You ask what came first?
The chicken or the egg?
But they both foul and rotten
Laws, politicians, they plot 'em,
And the cops on patrol, keep us locked in parole
Man they all getting coal in their stockings, so
Apathy's not an option
For all the lessons in that life that you learn
We not stopping until we getting a brighter return
To all the Zionist denying us, listen
(We're tireless)

It's a new dawn
Sun rising on the horizon
It's a new day
Every opportunity lies, in the crisis
I'm giving this my all when I write this
We in it for the long haul
No compromises

True revolutionaries guided by feelings of love
Give a hundred percent
Demolishing buildings and spilling civilians' blood
Collective punishment
This ain't no isolated incident
