[Intro]
[Sample: layered male/female choir singing softly “La ilaha illAllah” in harmony, with vinyl crackle and faint wind sounds. Low boom-bap kick + airy reverb.]
Bismillah, uh
[Verse 1]
[Drums enter: dusty snares, deep 808 bassline, faint oud plucks looping in background. Choir hum continues under beat, chopped like a soul sample.]
Early in the morning, got light in my eyes
Making dhikr to Allah, I’m alert and alive
Didn’t even sleep, I been workin’, I’m tired
But I still rise up for Fajr, I’m aligned
At the masjid’s service, like I’m workin’ a job
Young man lost, fallin’ deep in the fog
Playin’ with sins, but the Qur’an he ignored
One day he swore by the Book of the Lord
Take him into sujood, his mother still prayin’
Praising the King with no partner, no claimin’
Skipping rules, skipping school, chasing dunya alarms
Found a crew, made a truce, now repentin’ was born
The world spinnin’ while he’s caught in the storm
Pray for the boy, say “Ameen” and stay warm
Got caught in sin, but Allah gave him a warnin’
He touched wudhu water, cold turned warm in
He blacked out, but now he stand, he reformin’
Path is only back to tawbah or he fallin’
Oh well, you know the sad route
Chasin’ dunya quick, but the akhirah cash out
Lil’ buddy got to swervin’, his life then crashed out
It happens when you chasin’ the fast route
But I be tryna understand the soul when it’s livin’ with trauma
Shaytan whisper, so I fight nafs in jihad al-akbar
Mission was unfinished, but the test showed honor
Category, my life a sabr and shukr drama
Throw me stones, throw me hate, throw me trials, I’m calm
Red dot of dunya, I’m wearin’ imaan
Better aim at my chest, better test me, drop me, take me gone
But when angel come, you gon’ wish you held on
[Interlude]
[Choir sample full, no drums. Reverb-heavy, echoes like in an empty hall]
Didn’t Allah raise you up?
Didn’t He guide you right?
Brought you out the dark, to the path of the light?
Turned you around, gave your soul firm ground?
Didn’t He bless you out? SubhanAllah
[Verse 2]
[Choir sample chopped more aggressively, soul chop. Strings rise behind it, making it cinematic.]
Look, uh
Odds against me, but with Allah I rise
Evil whispers fade when I lower my eyes
Vengeance not mine, only Allah will decide
So I put my trust in Him, and let tawakkul guide
Sins heavy in my closet, I been cleanin’ mine
If temptation come, I seek refuge in signs
Take a ride through dunya but the akhirah shine
Switch my ways, ‘cause I know Qur’an defines
You get the gist, I been toein’ a thin line
But Allah’s mercy wide, so I pray in due time
Diamonds don’t blind me, I see nur in the night
Angels gather close when believers unite
But I give it to Allah, Ar-Rahman, Ar-Raheem
Ash-shakur, Al-Malik, every blessing unseen
Multi-gifted, multi-talented, servant of deen
No weapon stronger than a sajdah routine
So I open the Qur’an, I read a chapter
Seekin’ freedom from sins, from the here
