Turning Point

So yeah, maybe today will be the turning point for me How can I understand this if I don't fully understand my deen How can you find peace in your heart when we don't understand the one that made the heart After all the pain and struggles we still choose to ignore We chase our fantasy and we just want more and more We chase everything, money, designer clothes and supercars But we don't want to be close to the one that made the moon and the stars Continuously searching for something that will bring us nothing but pain Neglecting our creator, that's a Muslim's true pain You'd think we'd learn after losing someone close You'd think we'd try to make a change You'd think we'd understand this life doesn't belong to us But instead we just go back to our old ways Why is it so hard? I think about this every single day Why do we struggle to sometimes wake up and pray Why do we make up excuses and reasons to not pray We see the kafir have a routine Wake up early, gym, eat, work But us as Muslims can't take out 20 minutes a day to say Allahu Akbar Allah says, O my slave, if you come to me a hand span, I come to you an arm's length If you come to me walking, I come to you running My slave, when you remember me, I remember you And when you forget me, I still remember you How can we still not turn to Allah Knowing he will still forgive us even if our sins are great and our good deeds are few We've overcomplicated the deen because we find it so hard to maintain Sometimes it's with us and sometimes it's not It's just all part of the game Let me tell you a little bit about me Yh I'm Hafiz, Alhamdulillah, I didn't do it for the fame For someone to say he just did it for the name I did it so I can stand next to the Prophet Muhammad one day Started off with Alhamdulillah, Rabbil Alameen Ended with Surah An-Nas, Sadaqallahul Azeem Yeah, I thought to myself, this all must be a dream Reciting the last ten surahs, it was like my soul was freed This dunya is so strange, it just messes with my head Even when I sleep, I find no peace in my bed Turning over and over like a page in a book But this ain't the final chapter, I got more pages to overlook This is just the beginning and changes need to be made And I'd be a fool to say that I'm not afraid I leave behind me two things, the Quran and my sunnah And if you follow these, you will never go astray This is what the Prophet Muhammad said, so we don't push Islam away Yeah, we're all the same, I've got sins, you've got sins We're the best of all sinners But Alhamdulillah, I've got the heart of a winner I'm gonna go the whole way, I'm not gonna stop till I make it Until the day Azrael comes down and takes it This world we see every day is just mentally abusive Making money, lavish cars, we all think we're exclusive I'm trying to live my life for the better I'm trying to make a change Trying to understand my deen so I'm ready for the final stage This dunya is so strange, it's a prison for the Muslimin Each of us got a life sentence with only one way to be freed Our body is temporary but our soul is eternal We all know the Kalimah Shahada But when your time's up, there's no time for rehearsals La ilaha illallah on the tips of our tongues When our soul leaves our body and there's no breath in our lungs At that point it hits us all the times we didn't pray We think Ya Rabbi send me back for one more day Give me one more chance Ya Rabb Send me back to change my ways but it's too late Now our life in the dunya is done and now it's time to pay Ya Allah forgive me for my sins, ameen I'll be bowing in sujud, I hope my soul gets cleaned This dunya is calling me, my heart is warning me The devil's trying to grab me and say bro come roll with me I'm trying to get lyrical, I'm trying to get spiritual I'm trying to find my way for this could be my last day There's so much on my mind I know Allah already knows Every time I say Allahu Akbar I can feel Him getting close That feeling hits different every time you pray You feel at peace, this feeling never goes away So tell me now how can this be How can you fight the devil when he doesn't even bleed How can you give up so soon without even trying Say astaghfirullah three times and watch your eyes start crying The hardest battle you fight is when you fight yourself The devil will say come back but just stay true to yourself Cause there ain't no second chances, you're not gonna return This life will be finished and some of us are gonna burn Maybe this is a turning point for me You gave me chance after chance, you forgave every mistake I've ever made Pretending I'm filled with happiness with everything that I do But deep down I know something's missing and realise I'm the biggest fool Maybe this is the turning point for me Inshallah it will be the turning point for me
