I was talkin' bout making a difference
They said it's all business
Repentance is key
Now we livin' in marvelous times
No question they stressin' n depressin' our seeds
Hakuna matata, no problem
Esma7li adri ennik mu fahem
We walk on the land of the prophets
Might be growing a beard like James Harden
Submitting to God is Islam
I'm defending the peace like Mukhtar was
We diving for pearls, you just diving
Might call shotgun, no ones driving, no
I was born in a war zone
Shit is maniacal, need some botanical natural medical
This is so undeniable
Horses and camels I'm riding with honor
Wrapping my skull up, not wearing no armor
My bodyguard is the creator
When I say Allah, I mean the one God
We came from Adam the same father
The name is Abdul Rahman
Slave of the merciful, most compassionate
If you don't know ask and get answers


You say Amen, we say Ameen
You say hallelujah, we say Hamdulilah
Akhi is my brother, ukhti is my sister
This language has been here forever
Beautiful alphabets
You should learn Arabic
Islam is peace, logic, astronomy
No we don't do politics
That's a paradox
Grab my astrolabe, and connect the dots 



I'm with the Ūlama, like it's Ramadan
Subtitles on, camp Arifjan
My name is hard to pronounce 
Hakeem Olajuwon 
Nouman Ali Khan 
Rachmaninoff
The only one in class who didn't eat pork
But the only one in class who went HAM 
on the microphone 
Substitute teacher used to piss me off
That's not how you say my name for the thousandth time 
That's not a bomb, that's a bong 
I need a young Paula Abdul for a baby's mom
Knows how to carry a sword like Ibtihaj 
She could put on a hijab if she wants 
Ya Salam 
Back in the day my grandfather was a pirate  
Looking for pearls and Rubies and gold and diamonds
Always had faith in myself like my father did
My only leader is Mohammad and All my people followed him 
My pride is my everything but sometimes I have to swallow it 
Like they were vitamins 
We had lungs like aquamen 
Diving hundreds of feet deep with no oxygen 
We've been repressed for so long, since the Ottomans 
Now we coming back so strong I'm taking care of it
Connecting with my ancestors like I'm channeling
The waking of the sleeping giant from the island
After a chain of events, they blame Mohammedans 
We men of honor, as soon as we finish making Dua, we diving for pearls you just diving 

Bismillah Al Rahman Al Raheem
Finally waking up from the American dream 
Once was lost but now we been found
By the prophesied Mahdi from Bedouin kings 
We don't fold, we don't bend, we don't break
Ever since birth been at war with the state 
So if I don't make it to the pearly gates 
then I'd be ringing satan's neck in a firey lake
I was raised on the songs of David 
My ancestors came to this land on slave ships 
My grandmother did a life bid on grave shift 
And we was just trying not to get our heads split 
Ain't no justice, ain't no bygones 
Crooked police will get fired on 
Turn that court house to no fly zone 
Turn that Precinct to a war zone 
Mayday mayday 
Ricky Bobby 
This ain't maybe, this is probably 
This ain't hate speech, this the Bible 
Welcome to America, it's survival 
You can get a false charge or hit the lotto 
You might as well just twist the throttle 
Eye for an eye like Hammurabi
Ten thousand warriors crowd the lobby 
If it's me or either you, then it ain't me so, it's wasabi 
Bow with those who bow 
with true believers 
Render to Caesar what is Caesar's
Kodak says you don't believe in Jesus 
Leave em no choice but give it to you like Yeezus 
Don't ever fix your lips like collagen
And say something that I'm gon end up abolishing
