Native Deen ft. Zain Bhikha – Not Afraid To Stand Alone + Lyrics

Published by admin on November 30, 2010

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

Single mother raising her children
Now she’s a Muslim
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
Had a better education and it paid off

she was called for a job that she dreamed of
Close by, great pay -she was in love – they said…
They brought her in, told her she’s the number one pick
You got the job, but you gotta lose the outfit”

this is a tough position that you 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 resistin
Some days I felt I would give in
Just wanted to fit in

I know when Im praying and fasting
They be teasing and laughing
So I called to my Lord for the power
For the strength every day, every hour…

One day theres a new Muslim teacher
Single mom and the people respect her
Just seeing her strength I get stronger
They can break my will no longer

You dont see me sweating when theyre jokes’re cracking
Never see me cursin with my pants saggin
I aint running yo Im still standing
I ride with Allah to the very end

Chorus

now , Im a tough one, who can bear their blows
The rest play dumb, they dont dare say no
Scared of being shunned, by the peers they know
But I aint gonna run, I aint scared no more.

Man, these sisters be resolute
Never stressed when the rest say they wasnt cute
And they get the respect of the other youth
Come best with the dress yo and thats the truth

These sisters are strong gonna hand it down
So me Im a brotha gotta stand my ground
I aint gonna shudder, when the gangs around
Peer pressure whatever, its my planet now

Others may fall, Imma hold my own
With the help of Allah Ill be strong as stone
And Imma be brave and let Islam be shown
Cause you I know I not afraid to stand alone.

Chorus
