Awaken |
| [00:06.77] |
|
| [00:15.76] |
We were given so many prizes |
| [00:19.37] |
We changed the desert into oases |
| [00:23.18] |
We built buildings of different lengths and sizes |
| [00:27.18] |
And we felt so very satisfied |
| [00:30.54] |
We bought and bought and couldn't stop buying |
| [00:34.25] |
We gave charity to the poor coz we couldn't stand their crying |
| [00:39.00] |
We thought we'd paid our dues |
| [00:40.90] |
But in fact to ourselves we were just lying |
| [00:43.72] |
|
| [00:44.68] |
Chorus: |
| [00:45.17] |
I'm walking with my head lowered in shame for my place |
| [00:49.78] |
I'm walking with my head lowered for my race |
| [00:53.04] |
Yes, it's easy to blame everything on the West |
| [00:56.84] |
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves |
| [00:59.87] |
|
| [01:00.19] |
I'm walking with my head lowered in shame for my place |
| [01:04.99] |
I'm walking with my head lowered for my race |
| [01:08.39] |
Yes, it's easy to blame everything on the West |
| [01:12.20] |
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves |
| [01:15.54] |
|
| [01:15.99] |
We were told what to buy and we bought |
| [01:19.49] |
We went to London, Paris, and Costa del Sol |
| [01:23.19] |
We made sure we were seen in the most exclusive cafes and shops |
| [01:27.24] |
Yes, we felt so very satisfied |
| [01:30.75] |
We felt our money gave us infinite power |
| [01:34.35] |
We forgot to teach our children about history and honour |
| [01:38.72] |
We didn't have any time to lose |
| [01:41.07] |
When we were so busy feeling so satisfied |
| [01:44.61] |
|
| [01:45.45] |
Chorus |
| [01:45.79] |
I'm walking with my head lowered in shame for my place |
| [01:49.86] |
I'm walking with my head lowered for my race |
| [01:53.20] |
Yes, it's easy to blame everything on the West |
| [01:57.00] |
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves |
| [02:00.00] |
|
| [02:00.20] |
I'm walking with my head lowered in shame for my place |
| [02:04.92] |
I'm walking with my head lowered for my race |
| [02:08.31] |
Yes, it's easy to blame everything on the West |
| [02:12.11] |
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves |
| [02:14.96] |
|
| [02:16.07] |
We became individuals without a soul |
| [02:19.47] |
Despite the heat, our homes felt so empty and cold |
| [02:22.97] |
To fill the emptiness, we bought and bought |
| [02:25.83] |
Maybe all the fancy cars and bling will make us satisfied |
| [02:30.64] |
My dear brother and sister it's time to change inside |
| [02:34.34] |
Open your eyes, don't throw away what's right aside |
| [02:38.10] |
Before the day comes when there's no where to run or hide |
| [02:42.36] |
Now ask yourself 'cause Allah is watching you: |
| [02:46.33] |
Is He satisfied? |
| [02:49.74] |
Is Allah is satisfied? |
| [03:01.42] |
|
| [03:01.78] |
Chorus |
| [03:02.07] |
I'm walking with my head lowered in shame for my place |
| [03:06.77] |
I'm walking with my head lowered for my race |
| [03:10.25] |
Yes, it's easy to blame everything on the West |
| [03:13.90] |
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves |
| [03:16.82] |
|
| [03:17.12] |
I'm walking with my head lowered in shame for my place |
| [03:21.73] |
I'm walking with my head lowered for my race |
| [03:25.24] |
Yes, it's easy to blame everything on the West |
| [03:28.85] |
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves |
| [03:32.20] |
