Native Deen - I am not afraid to stand alone lyrics

Chorus I am not afraid to stand alone I am not afraid to stand alone. If Allah is by my side I am not afraid to stand alone. Everything will be alright I am not afraid to stand alone. Gonna keep my head up high A single mother raising her children and Now she's a m**m Started praying and wearing a headscarf Was a healing for her heart Struggling with no one to lean on But with prayer she would be strong Had a job but then she was laid off Got a better education and it paid off She was call for a job that she dreamed of Close by, great pay -she was in love – they said… They brought her in, said she's the number one pick You got the job, but you gotta lose the outfit” It's a tough position that they put me in Cause Ive been struggling with my two children But I'll continue looking for a job again My faith in my religion now will never bend Chorus Peer pressure, they were insisting And I was resisting Some days I felt I would give in Just wanted to fit in I know when I'm praying and fasting' They be teasing and laughing So I called to my Lord for the power For the strength every day, every hour… Then one day there's a new m**m teacher Single mom and the people respect her Just seeing her strength I get stronger They can break my will no longer You don't see me sweating when they're jokes're cracking Never see me cussing' with my pants saggin' I ain't never running yo I'm still standing I ride with Allah to the very end Chorus I am not afraid to stand alone… Now, I'm a tough one, who can bear their blows The rest play dumb, they don't dare say no Scared of being shunned, but its clear they know I ain't never gonna run, I ain't scared no more Man, these sisters be resolute Never stressed when the rest say they wasn't cute And the get the respect of the other youth Come best with the dress yo and that's the truth These sisters are strong gonna hand it down So me I'm a brotha gotta stand my ground I ain't gonna shudder, when the gangs around Peer pressure whatever, its my planet now Others may fall, I'mma hold my own With Allah's help I'll be strong as stone And I'mma be brave and let Al Islam be shown Cause you I know I not afraid to stand alone Chorus
