This piece I wrote back when I was in Jeddah, KSA teaching and it all just came together, one day sitting in a classroom, while my students were on break...Starts off aggressive, but after the 1st verse, the flow goes into a mellow tone
Its been 4 yrs since the government started this drill/
in the process tryna come up with a terrorist bill/
they done wrecked a country's people/ destroyed their well being/
everythings gone opposite of how they wanted it/ and now the American public aint feelin it/
cuz they see their soldiers dyin based on a lie/ uncle sam's workin hard to deny/
but it wont fly no more/ not with innocent lives/ being burned alive/ how much they try /
but them Iraqi's still putting up a fight/ showin the world that their sufferin aint right/
yet the people still won't bite/ that all this chaos is simply based on a lie/
Don’t try to deny/ cuz everything u doin is a lie / everyday we hear our children cry / why / don’t you see the innocence in their eye / the more you justify, the more obvious the lie/ so just stop cuz you’ll never get a piece of the pie / and in the end only the truth will fly…fly
They have overcome me
But the battle has just begun
I tried to explain
But the work that I profess will be done
They deny the truth
And they think they have defeated the strong
What they deny and don’t know is that they're sitting on a ticking time bomb
They oppress, rape and pillage our land
For the black gold that they covet / residing under our sand
They compound our minds with lie upon lie
And while were distracted / its our children that die
Don’t try to deny/ cuz everything u doin is a lie / everyday we hear our children cry / why / don’t you see the innocence in their eye / the more you justify, the more obvious the lie/ so just stop cuz you’ll never get a piece of the pie / and in the end only the truth will fly…fly
Soon the water of the Euphrates will drain away
And her secrets will be revealed on open display
The secrets will be collected by those who oppress
And because they take / they will never taste success
I pray for the day when the Guided One arrives
The Khalifah (Caliph) of God who will bring there demise
To join him / a land of ice I will traverse
On my knees praying / for the best not the worst
The son of Miriam will descend in the East
To strengthen the Muslims and to slay the beast
The one eyed man who will lead many astray
For protection from him / we must pray… every day
The Verses of the Cave will be efficient for me
From the book of my Lord Who is sufficient for me
Don’t try to deny/ cuz everything u doin is a lie / everyday we hear our children cry / why / don’t you see the innocence in their eye / the more you justify, the more obvious the lie/ so just stop cuz you’ll never get a piece of the pie / and in the end only the truth will fly…fly
(Outro)
My Lord I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave and the punishment of Hell fire / from the evil of dajjal and from the evil of life and death / cuz we just might be gone in one breath
