Are you that ashamed and weak
That all it takes is for someone to call you a freak
And you forget how to simply speak
About the truth that was sent down to the mountain’s peak
The words of Allah you’d rather tweak
Sending you down a losing streak
For Allah’s sake would you not turn the other cheek
His rules laid out as clear as a river creek

Our sins we are told to minimize
Instead we speak lies and break ties
Using this dunya as a disguise
As if you could deceive The Most Wise
For when it comes time to say your goodbyes
Your good deeds will be your only allies
All you once loved now you despise
Begging to see one last sunrise
The time has come for your demise

All through your body runs the fear
Because its quiz time from munkar and nakeer
Trying to fight so they don’t come near
Their questions strike you like a warriors spear
A minute now feels like a light year
Into hells cages your soul disappears
Unlike the green-winged souls of your pious peers
Excuses you spit out faster than an auctioneer
Didn’t help you get up here where life is perfect and mere

Now tell me was it worth it
Or are you still too bold to admit
That when you had the chance you should have quit
Thrown all your sins and doubts into a fire pit
And found the strength to submit
