Fajr
Brother Ali

People ain’t eating they say the reason

Resources depleted for the defense

I’m offended by it these authentic liars

Should’ve been retired let me identify them

You’ll never get me quiet my people been inspired

I’m the little fire flickering within the riot

Feel it vibrate shake awake sleeping giant

Keep them vibrant and vital and re-energize them

Our time’s arriving our shine is blinding

They cry we’re violent demonize it

Guys on the wrong side of right find us frightening

Pray lightning strike twice ice on their eyelids

Isis Osiris Christ in his likeness

Day of resurrection bring life to the lifeless

Tear the wall down pull a crown of a tyrant

Rebuild gentrify the planet for the righteous

He who sacrifices for the greater good

Elevate them where they should to the title of your highness

Only tribe surviving is the pious, pious

United by the mighty human life tie that bind us

Hunger find kindness minds find refinement

The sightless guided by the blind are the blindest

We read the signs inscribed in the horizon

Bright yellow shot through the night time fajr

Oh thank you master for my soul

Lord hold me close don’t let me go


Oh thank you master for my soul

Lord hold me close don’t let me go

The long suffering long for relief

The hard working meek still drowning in grief

Houses are seized and they tossed in the street

The orphans of greed in the culture of deceit

Strong hunt the weak and the poverty steep

Wages dropping beneath yet the cost still increase

Officers deep keep force of police

The four-headed beast wild all off the leash

Hard-hearted beast with a jaw full of meat

Engulfed in a feast while you starve at his feet

He toss you the least little portion of a piece

To the floor and expect you to rejoice when you eat

Survival can seem the impossible feat

But you roll up your sleeves and you sow all your seeds

Toil in the soil but you’re not allowed to reap

So you toss and you scream like a horrible dream

Woke out your sleep got you forced to your feet

Feel the pulse of your people in the heart when it beat

The vultures they keep bringing halt to your peace

Pull the sword out the sheath keep the wolves off of the sheep
