AWAKEN BY MAHER ZAIN

We were given so many prizes
We changed the desert into oasis
We built buildings of different lengths and sizes
and we felt so very satisfied

We bought and bought
We couldn't stop buying
We gave charity to the poor 'cause
We couldn't stand their crying

We thought we paid our dues
but in fact
to ourselves we're just lying

Oh... I'm walking with
my head lowered in
shame from my place

I'm walking with
my head lowered from my race

Yes it's easy to blame
everything on the west
When in fact all focus
should be on ourselves

We were told what to buy and
We'd bought
We went to London, Paris and
Costa Del Sol

We made show we were seen
in the most exclusive shops
Yes we felt so satisfied

We felt our money gave us
infinite power
We forgot to teach our children
about history and honor

We didn't have any time to lose
when we were...
So busy feeling so satisfied

We became the visuals without a soul
despite the heat
Our homes felt so empty and cold

To fill the emptiness
we bought and bought
Maybe all the fancy cars
and bling will make us feel satisfied

My dear brother and sister
it's time to changed inside
Open your eyes
Don't throw away what's right aside

Before the day comes
when there's nowhere to run and hide

Now ask yourself 'cause Allah's watching you

IS HE SATISFIED?
IS ALLAH SATISFIED?
