Stand Alone |
Chorus |
I am not afraid to stand alone,. |
I am not afraid to stand alone,. |
If Allah is by my side |
I am not afraid to stand alone,. |
Everything will be |
alright |
I am not afraid to stand alone,. |
Gonna keep my head up |
high |
Single mother raising her children |
Now she’s a Muslim |
Started praying and wearing a headscarf |
Was a healing for her heart |
Struggling with no one to lean on |
But with prayer she would be strong |
Got a job but then she was laid off |
Got a better education and it paid off |
Got a call for a job that she dreamed of |
Close by, great pay -she was in love — they said… |
They brought her in, said she’s the number one pick |
You got the job, but you gotta lose the outfit" |
It’s a tough position that they put me in |
Cause Ive been struggling with my two children |
But I’ll continue looking for a job again |
My faith in my religion now will never bend |
Chorus |
Peer pressure, they were insisting |
And I was resisting |
Some days I felt I would give in |
Just wanted to fit in |
I know when I’m praying and fasting' |
They be teasing and laughing |
So I called to my Lord for the power |
For the strength every day, every hour… |
Then one day there’s a new Muslim teacher |
Single mom and the people respect her |
Just seeing her strength I get stronger |
They can break my will no longer |
You don’t see me sweating when they’re jokes’re |
cracking |
Never see me cussing' with my pants saggin' |
I aint never running yo I’m still standing |
I ride with Allah to the very end |
Chorus |
I am not afraid to stand alone… |
Now, I’m a tough one, who can bear their blows |
The rest play dumb, they don’t dare say no |
Scared of being shunned, but its clear they know |
I aint never gonna run, I aint scared no more,. |
Man, these sisters be resolute |
Never stressed when the rest say they wasn’t cute |
And the get the respect of the other youth |
Come best with the dress yo and that’s the truth |
These sisters are strong gonna hand it down |
So me I’m a brotha gotta stand my ground |
I aint gonna shudder, when the gangs around |
Peer pressure whatever, its my planet now |
Others may fall, I’mma hold my own |
With Allah’s help I’ll be strong as stone |
And I’mma be brave and let Al Islam be shown |
Cause you I know I not afraid to stand alone |
Chorus |
