Deen You Know lyrics

I am the Deen you know
I am the Deen you need
I am the Deen you love
Please come back to me

He (satan) wants to bring you down, he whispers everyday
You started on the path and he led you astray
I know you will come back, you never feel at peace
You're searching for the truth to put your mind at ease
You know you're missing me, I know what you've been through

Ummi and Abi (Mother and Father)
This one is for you
I know I'm speakin' kinda different
But the message shines through
Just like that after fajr sun
Felt commanded by the One
Shine a light on those who raised righteous daughters and sons
Who, accept their purpose
Immersed in Allah's worship
Bartering this time in life
For an after life purchase
Started early in the season

Waking up in the morning, gotta make my prayer
Am I really gonna' make it, when there is no one there?
Taking trips to the masjid (mosque), even when it's tough
Am I going for the sake of Allah? Am I showing off?
Gonna' get me the knowledge, gonna study Islam
Am I going just to build my ego? so they call me “the Man”?

Ever been on a drive? Inside in your ride
And your looking through the glass, see a car on the side
The engine's broken and the car is smoking
And the dude is shaking cause the heat is baking
Or this cat's (guy) gotta flat, and the spare's all whack
No jack in the back, and no clue where he's at
There ain't no real rush, but you roll right by
Not even asking the guy if he needs a supply

Asalaatu Alannabe, Wasalaam Alarasool
Walanbiyya el-Mursaleen,
Kulluhum Salooalay

[Chorous]
Prayers To Allah be on Nabi
The messenger may peace be on thee
And all the prophets sent to mankind
We pray for each and everyone

Before he was born the Pharaoh wanted him dead
Nobody killed him he floated up the river instead
Not a scratch on his body and no blood did he shed

I saw a friend just the other day
We took a walk around the way
The sky was blue and his face was grey
I asked him what could cause such dismay?
He tallied his life and he noticed the score
He felt his pain he never felt before
He said it feels like He (Allah) can't no more
He said it feels like He (Allah) can't love me no more
No No No No

[Chorous]
He can't love me anymore

[Chorous]
Paradise is only for the people who are righteous
So accept Islam you might just get the mercy when you pray to Allah (God)
You know that we want to go to Heaven
When you pray to Allah, When you pray to Allah, When you pray to Allah
Anything you want you gonna have when you think of it
There ‘ain't nothing you would like you gonna love it when you pray to Allah

Lately things have been so stressed for you
It seems like life is trying to mess with you and pester you
You thought you knew exactly what to best pursue
You working hard on those things that you set to do
But you confess it's true that your success is few
And your folks are only helping in depressing you
You try to do the Deen but they be stressing you

[Chorous]
I don't need to get high, some people do and some people die
The life that I live may not be that long
But while I'm alive I'll be healthy and strong

I think it's cruel and inconsiderate
When people huffin' and they puffin' on a cigarette
Then blow the smoke in the area that I breathe
Sometimes they blow it in my face when they talk to me

Coming home in the evening, each day much on my mind
Fast pace of living in the West, with such little time
Cars and folks yell at me, everybody making me spin
We know we gotta' have patience, so we hold it within
Stress, doctors say it makes a brother sick and I know this is true
So I call out to my Lord each day to please help me through
