LYRICS: 

[Verse 1: Nico Marchese]
Time flies by 
But your always on my mind 
Brought up in a family full of lies 
Latitude to your design 
No gratitude 
I had it too 
Living life non factual 
A fact is true 
The One Allah subhanahu 
But what am I supposed to do? 
When I miss you 
And I have no clue if paradise is calling you 
The tears of the sun are running down my face when I think of the fire surrounding you 
Heart has truth 
Tongue spits lies 
We try to rationalize 
The fabrications of lost souls 
And hollowed minds 
In shallow times 
The sky appears empty 
And we're far behind 
I always think far beyond 
Than this Dunya promise land 
21st century feeling like it's Babylon 
MashAllah for everything I'm going through 
My whole family's kaffirs 
So what am I supposed to do 

[Verse 2: K.O.]
I transformed, on my optimus prime, The most often of crime, 
Is watching wrong but acting so blind 
Dollar signs hypnotize these young minds these young guys 
You'd think they can see with two eyes but they still blinded 
Got me reminded, that everybody got different times and
We caught up in living life so timeless 
Spitting til I'm rhyme-less, you making money your holy highness 
Worshippin' papyrus, the new pagans,
Cuz old school used to worship Isis 
We worship own devices 
Cash Rules Everything Around Me, that's a crisis 
Better know what life is, examination 
Reading in the Qur'an Allah examined nations 
Currently time is wasted, one time for the patient 
Remembering God in these times of tribulations 
I miss you grandpa, and I pray and dedicate this 
Song to you, May you be in better of destinations...

[Bridge: K.O.]
The clock's ticking, the next day is not guaranteed 
You Only Live Twice contrary to common belief 
Opulent content, but I'm still keepin it brief 
Free your mind, watch what you do in these streets.

Lyrics 
________________________________________________
Verse 1: 

The spark is lit, 
they raise their fist 
higher 
Chanting down with empire
This what Malcolm inspired 
The world.. chants like a choir 
How many Black boys these cops gon fire?
The narrative is skewed, 
The way it’s told in these public schools
So invested in changing the public’s views
They sit and accuse, 
Victims of state-sponsored abuse
On the news, 
You hear all types of dumb dudes
Ayo I’m haunted, 
Thinking bout Trayvon Martin 
Not much changed, 
Since picking cotton
Not much changed, 
Since Dr. Martin
We out here buying coffins, 
Digging holes in the ground is exhausting 
You can be color blind, and try to hide
Decide to ignore what’s going on outside
These slaves ships remain clipped 
Police armed with the chains, whips
But I only fear Allah, 
I always stick to same script.

Verse 2: 

Awakened mind, 
In this forsaken time 
I throw rocks 
Word to Palestine 
Claim they fight crime 
They oppressive by design 
So I sit and I define them as 
Asinine 
So many whack rulers 
That still act divine 
Witnessing decline
And they still acting blind 
Imperialists divide
But why the children die? 
Self defense? 
Yeah, more like genocide
They impose us to comply
Stay silent like some mimes
The media, they spreading lies, 
Like leukemia…
It’s in my blood to defy
I trust the most High, 
Through Him we will rise
The slaves ships, 
They still here in disguise 
They instill fear, 
Dropping bombs from the skies
And yo we still here, 
Cuz justice is the prize, 
unite in unison 
you can hear our battle cries.  
(nahmean)


Verse 3: 

So many tyrants, 
Many die for not staying silent 
I saw a child, his face was so vibrant 
He said wipe those tears 
I know oppression spreading like a virus
But you gotta pray to God that we survive this 
The Senate filled with Zionists 
They worry bout Somalis but the pirates 
Are the ones dropping bombs on the pious 
The Burmese they on fire, 
it seems like the world has gon eyeless 
And the media remains being biased 
This episode repeats itself 
The government defeats itself 
Elites and wealth 
Retreat themselves 
We take it 
to the streets ourselves
We’re done being beat, we yell 
Yo police, dispel 
Hardship comes over and over to visit 
But Ease follows, like an equation from physics 
Isn’t it 
so beautiful how struggle unites us
We still grow, even as the enemy incites us.

We Still Grow (feat. Yase of Mustaqeem)

It's On You (K.O. X 5ultan)

It was a good song, so I thought I'd share with y'all.
