Chorus: (x2)
Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over
And it feels as though your faith is gonna fall
Ya habibi keep on praying
Your heart was made to keep on swaying
It's what they call
The rise and fall
Verse 1:
I used to never thought I'd meet my maker
But now he's with me everywhere I go
I used to roll around with troublemakers
Leave my mother crying when I leave the home
She told me, "Son, I think you're losing your way"
"The roads you're going down, this isn't right"
Cuz some people you find, can take over your life
My soul was searching for something with purpose
My eyes were blinded from the light
My heart was cold and it was getting colder
Each day and night
Ya Allah, where am I going wrong
Cuz deep down, this life, this isn't me
I'm beginning to lose my integrity
Chorus: (x2)
Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over
And it feels as though your faith is gonna fall
Ya habibi keep on praying
Your heart was made to keep on swaying
It's what they call
The rise and fall
Verse 2:
I used to tell myself that I was crazy
I thought that I was about to lose my mind
Cuz I've been looking at this world lately
Through different eyes
Is there really out there nothing more
Cuz in my heart, this don't seem right to me
Please show me the way, out of darkness to light
Cuz some days I feel my heart is beating
Then other times, I don't feel a thing
But tell me how you supposed to feel the beauty
Without no pain
This life's a test, In Sha Allah we'll make it
Just know that from this life we will depart
I'm begging, Allah, for You to please clean my heart
Chorus: (x2)
Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over
And it feels as though your faith is gonna fall
Ya habibi keep on praying
Your heart was made to keep on swaying
It's what they call
The rise and fall
Outro:
Ya muqallib al-quloob, thabbit qalbi 'ala deenik
Oh turner of hearts, keep my heart firm upon your religion
