lirik lagu muslim belal & essam muhammad - my heart
[produced by mb]
[chorus]
i am broken, now i’m frozen
this heart of mine, this heart of mine
i was chosen, need protection
this heart of mine, this heart of mine
and i beg allah to protect me
my heart and my energy
‘cuz i’m broken, i’m broken
i beg allah to protect me
my heart and my energy
‘cuz i’m broken, i’m broken
[verse 1]
men find it hard to love
taught to be tough growing up
crying was a sign of weakness
so we never showed emotion and stuff
while the girls greeted each other with hugs
we would just fist bump or give a little nod
but we was really going through some stuff
so all the pain, damage, is just building up
so although we build connections
it was always hard to show affection
as a man i hadn’t shed tears in years
then the first time i cried again was in prayer
[verse 2]
we are gladiators, trying to be honourable
but don’t let that body armour stop you from being vulnerable
you are the head of the family, provide and protect
the moon would always follow the sun, whatever path you select
lead with grace, create a safe sp~ce
build a home with love
the strongest controls his anger and rises above
[verse 3]
i’ve been learning to open up
that character you portray to the world, make sure it’s the same inside
where there’s nowhere to hide
allah sees all
don’t be ashamed to rise and fall
before you raise your voice, raise your hands
ask your lord to give you the patience to understand
before you clench that fist, open a palm
offer a hand and mend
there’s more reward in forgiveness than revenge
we’re going to need all the rewards we can get in the end
[verse 4]
and there’s more beauty in love than hate
it’s okay to make a mistake, just be accountable
allah is merciful
soft~hearted and loves those who are soft~hearted
your story don’t have to end bad just because that’s the way that it started
i had to remind myself that
[verse 5]
see, we grew up the worst
free meals and council flats
gunshots and knife fights
police sirens and drive~by’s
son dies and mum cries
broken homes and broken hearts
poverty in society pullin’ us apart
so we got the hardest sh~lls
now we got to rebuild ourselves
before we go out there and try to rebuild the world
[chorus]
i am broken, now i’m frozen
this heart of mine, this heart of mine
i was chosen, need protection
this heart of mine, this heart of mine
and i beg allah to protect me
my heart and my energy
‘cuz i’m broken, i’m broken
i beg allah to protect me
my heart and my energy
‘cuz i’m broken, i’m broken
[verse 6]
have you ever broke down in sujood
from your heart being shattered, you don’t know what to do?
and as boys, we was taught, ‘never show what you been through’
we just turned to a fix so that we couldn’t feel wounds
my og sat me down, and he told me, ‘keep this up
you goin’ to end up on the streets addicted to hard drugs’
how many people that we know od’d?
[verse 7]
ain’t no miskeen kid wanna grow up to be a fiend
but if you take away a voice from a child who wanted to scream
he might end up in the jungle ’round the k!llers and the fiends
if my faith don’t breathe, then i’m not alive
so if i’m slippin’ for this deen, then that’s suicide
[verse 8]
the amount of times i seen a mother cry
i can’t even count how many brothers die
see, life be going smooth ’til you least expect it
infatuated by the dunya ’til i switched perspective
like, if i listen to my nafs then i might regret this
in a death match with the devil, faith my intervention
[verse 9]
ummi always told me one hand doesn’t clap
so if the opposition claps, then my brothers clap back
the place that we was raised, always gotta watch you back
i call it public housing or call it council flat
different sides of the pond, same river that we from
it’s like our cities don’t shine, mama lost so many sons
[verse 10]
angel of death come around, ain’t no place that you can run
nothin’ is goin’ to save you, not a sword and not a gun
the only thing you take to your grave is your faith
so prepare yourself before that time is too late
you can’t buy another second, it don’t matter what’s in your pocket
you’ll be asked about your lord, your religion, and your prophet
but your tongue won’t respond, instead it is your heart
it’s about how you finish, it don’t matter how you start
[chorus]
i am broken, now i’m frozen
this heart of mine, this heart of mine
i was chosen, need protection
this heart of mine, this heart of mine
and i beg allah to protect me
my heart and my energy
‘cuz i’m broken, i’m broken
i beg allah to protect me
my heart and my energy
‘cuz i’m broken, i’m broken
