|
| (In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.)
|
| if they offered you the sun
|
| in exchange for your soul
|
| then turn around and run, run
|
| the life of this world is nothing but fun
|
| play and amusement
|
| until it’s over and done
|
| don’t put your faith in this life
|
| don’t put your hopes in this world
|
| not for a sky full of stars
|
| not for an ocean of pearls
|
| if there were deserts of diamonds
|
| if there were mountains of gold
|
| if there were pieces of platinum the size of theglobe
|
| it wouldn’t compare to the light of your soul
|
| the more you refine it
|
| the brighter it glows
|
| they want you lost in the darkness
|
| they want your heart to be cold
|
| they want you following blindly
|
| until your coffin is closed
|
| and what you hold in your palms
|
| i know it’s hotter than coals
|
| but if you knew what it was worth
|
| you would not let go
|
| don’t let yourself go
|
| be true to yourself
|
| don’t fall for this world
|
| the truth is Islam
|
| status will fade away
|
| money will come and go
|
| run away from this world
|
| remember judgement will come
|
| i know you feel alone
|
| but can we paint the stars on the sunset
|
| sunset
|
| sunset
|
| it’s hard being a Muslim teen in the far west
|
| but i have to confess
|
| that life is just moments taped together with duc-tape
|
| and if i have to write a way i’ll always find You right away
|
| i want to find my meaning in the poems i compose
|
| i want to find life but instead i lost hope
|
| i shrouded my dreams behind clouds in the sky
|
| i never did account for the rays of sunlight
|
| and when i think of God i always say it’ll bealright
|
| because with every new dawn comes a bright sunrise
|
| and i’m writing this for the army living in yourheart
|
| this is for the little boy who needs strength
|
| for that young sister who just wanted to change
|
| i pray for your soul
|
| never let yourself go
|
| don’t let yourself go
|
| be true to yourself
|
| don’t fall for this world
|
| the truth is Islam
|
| status will fade away
|
| money will come and go
|
| run away from this world
|
| remember judgement will come |
