I've Seen
Outlandish

I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so

So desperately

But lately I feel

Like you feel and

I see what you see

How I'm missing you


What happened to the ummah

Once known so well...


I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so

So desperately

But lately I feel

Like you feel and

I see what you see

How I'm missing you


What happened to the ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

Used to inspire others with our way of thinking and speech

People came from afar just to hear us teach

Yo what happened to the ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

Mosques are empty, refrigerators are stocked

We lost our deen we feel secure

'Cause our mansions are locked

In my teen years salah wasn't really that tight

Now I gotta pray each one of them twice

What happened to the ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

Brother we prefer light skinned women

While righteously maintaining our deen against racism

What happened to the ummah

Once known so well

Greatness was known

But now can you tell


I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so

So desperately

But lately I feel

Like you feel and

I see what you see

How I'm missing you


What happened to the ummah once known so well

Greatness was known, but now can you tell

Kids in Africa are starving - can't afford to cry

I'll pay interest for a car I can't afford to buy

What happened to the ummah once known so well

Greatness was known, but now can you tell?

We used to smile at each other, with faces full of light

Now we frown at each other, we bicker and we fight

Pops in the mosque praying, kids in the streets hating

Kids on the corner selling, pops in the mosque preachin'

What happened to the ummah once known so well

Greatness was known but now can you tell?

The Quran has left out hearts stranded, hanging on out walls

6232verses, so strong

9 out of 10 of us can't even read or write

1924 feels distant like way before Christ


I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so

So desperately

But lately I feel

Like you feel and

I see what you see

How I'm missing you


Que le pasу a la maza

Como puede ser

La grandeza conocida

No la puedo ver

He visto como mi figura cae en tentaciуn

A pesar de que la vida a sido buena con luz e ilusion

He pedido perdуn por mis pecados

Tengo la cruz sobre mi cama y el diablo a mi lado

Que le pasу a la maza

Como puede ser

La belleza conocida

No la puedo ver

He sentido incompetencia buscando la verdad

Todos dicen conocerla solo veo la maldad

Que le pasу a la maza

Como puede ser

La pureza conocida

No la puedo ver


Translation:

[What happened to the people

How can it be

Greatness was known

But now can you tell

I've watched myself fall from grace

Even though life has been good, filled with hopes and dreams

I've asked forgiveness for my sins

I have the cross above my bed and the devil by my side

What happened to the people

How can it be

Beauty was known

But now can you tell]


If I was to fall on my knees and ask you to forgive everything for the Lord, out of Love, for the One, oh oh oh... Iґve seen

And if you were to fall on ya knees and ask me the same

Brother, don't even think about it, lets just break out of the darkness of ignorance


I wish you were here

Here next to me

Been missing you so

So desperately

But lately I feel

Like you feel and

I see what you see

How I'm missing you...
