Yusuf (Arabic: يوسف ٱبن يعقوب ٱبن إسحاق ٱبن إبراهيم, romanized: Yūsuf ibn Yaʿqūb ibn ʾIsḥāq ibn ʾIbrāhīm, lit. 'Joseph, son of Jacob, son of Isaac, son of Abraham') is a prophet mentioned in the Quran and corresponds to Joseph, a person from the Hebrew and Christian Bible who was said to have lived in Egypt before the New Kingdom. Of Jacob's children, Joseph reportedly had the gift of prophecy. Although the narratives of other prophets are presented in a number of surahs, Joseph's complete narrative appears in only one: Yusuf. Said to be the most detailed narrative in the Quran, it contains more details than its biblical counterpart.Yusuf is believed to have been the eleventh son of Ya'qub (Arabic: يعقوب) and, according to a number of scholars, his favorite. … more »

It's time to tell a story that's been hidden all these years
Of children under tombstones and mothers shedding tears
Let's face the facts, we turned our backs
And now we're diggin' graves
But I won't be accessory to makin' people slaves
Take me now, as I am, I won't lie to you again
Take me now, I'm one of them
I'm a Third World Soldier
Shoot me down while you can
You kill the beast you kill the man, ya
Take me now as I am
I'm a Third World Soldier
I've seen the slums in Cairo, the many sick and poor
I've seen the slums in Rio, the wicked ways of war
The guns and bombs, the false alarms
The missiles in the sky
And in the midst of battleships I hear a mother cry
Take me now, as I am, I won't lie to you again
Take me now, I'm one of them
I'm a Third World Soldier
Shoot me down while you can
You kill the beast you kill the man, ya
Take me now as I am
I'm a Third World Soldier
And everywhere I look I see destruction
Bodies all around, children in the ground
And everywhere they're callin' it construction
There's nothin left to eat, the tanks are in the street
Take me now, as I am, I wouldn't die for you again
Take me now, I'm one of them
I'm a Third World Soldier
Shoot me down while you can
You kill the beast you kill the man, ya
Take me now, as I am, I won't lie to you again
Take me now, I'm one of them
I'm a Third World Soldier, take me now
I wouldn't die for you again, ya take me now
I wouldn't die for you again, well take me now
I wouldn't die for you again, ya take me down
I'm a Third World Soldier
