Sons of Yusuf - Diving for Pearls lyrics

Artist: Sons of Yusuf

album: Shaykh the World


I was talking 'bout makin' a difference
They said it's all business, repentence is key (Key)
Now we livin' in marvelous times
No questions, they stressin', depressin' our seeds (Seeds)
Hakuna Matata, no problems
اسمح لي ادري إنك مو فاهم (Nah)
We walk on the land of the prophets (Whoa)
Might be growin' a beard like James Harden (Yeah)
Submittin' to God, it's Islam (Islam)
I'm defendin' the peace like Mukhtar was
We divin' for pearls, you just divin' (Yeah)
Might call shotgun, no one is drivin', no
I was born in a warzone
Shit is maniacal, need some botanical
Natural, medical, shit
This is so undeniable
Horses and camels, I'm ridin' with honor
Wrapping my skull up, not wearin' no armor
My bodyguard is the Creator
When I say "Allah", I mean the one God
We came from Adam, the same father (Father)
The name is Abdul Rahman
Slave of the merciful, most compassionate
If you don't know ask and get answers
You say "Amen" we say "Ameen" (Ameen)
You say "Hallelujah" we say "Alhamdulillah"
Akhi is my brother, Oukhti is my sister
This language has been here forever
Beautiful alphabet, you should learn Arabic
Islam is peace, logic, astronomy
No we don't do politics
That's a paradox
Grab my astrolabe and connect the dots
Ameen, Ameen
I'm with the Ūlama, like it's Ramadan
Subtitles on, camp Arifjan
My name is hard to pronounce
Hakeem Olajuwon
Nouman Ali Khan
Rachmaninoff
The only one in class who didn't eat pork
But the only one in class who went HAM
On the microphone
Substitute teacher used to piss me off
That's not how you say my name for the thousandth time
That's not a bomb, that's a bong
I need a young Paula Abdul for a baby's mom
Knows how to carry a sword like Ibtihaj
She could put on a hijab if she wants
Ya Salam
Back in the day my grandfather was a pirate
Looking for pearls and Rubies and gold and diamonds
Always had faith in myself like my father did
My only leader is Mohammad and All my people followed him
My pride is my everything but sometimes I have to swallow it
Like they were vitamins
We had lungs like aquamen
Diving hundreds of feet deep with no oxygen
We've been repressed for so long, since the Ottomans
Now we coming back so strong I'm taking care of it
Connecting with my ancestors like I'm channeling
The waking of the sleeping giant from the island
After a chain of events, they blame Mohammedans
We men of honor
As soon as we finish making Dua, we diving for pearls you just diving
We divin' for pearls
You just divin'
Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim
Finally wakin' up from the American dream
Once was lost but now we been found by
The prophesied Mahdi from Bedouin kings
We don't fold, we don't bend, we don't break
Ever since birth been at war with the state
So if I don't make it to the pearly gates
Then I'll be wringing Satan's neck in a fiery lake
I was raised on the Psalms of David
My ancestors came to this land on slave ships
My grandmother did a life bid on grave shift
And we was just tryin' not to get our head split
Ain't no justice, ain't no bygones
Crooked police, will get fired on
Turn that courthouse to no fly zone
Turn that precinct to a war zone
Mayday, mayday, Ricky Bobby
This ain't me maybe, this is probably
This ain't hate speech, it's the Bible
Welcome to America, it's survival
You could get a false charge or hit the lotto
You might as well just twist the throttle
Eye for an eye like Hammurabi
Ten thousand warriors, crowd the lobby
If it's me or, either you then
It ain't me so, it's wasabi
Bow with those who bow, the true believers
Render to the Caesar what is Caesar's
Kodak said you don't believe in Jesus
Leave me no choice but give it to you like Yeezus
Don't ever fix your lips like collagen and
Then say somethin' that I'm gon' end up abolishing
