Awaken-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抰 stop buying
We gave charity to the poor 抍ause
We couldn抰 stand their crying
We thought we paid our dues
But in fact
To ourselves we抮e just lying
Oh匢抦 walking with my head lowered in shame from my place
I抦 walking with my head lowered from my race
Yes it抯 easy to blame everything on the west
When in fact all focus should be on ourselves
We were told what to buy and we抎 bought
We went to London, Paris and
We made show we were seen in the most exlusive shops
Yes we felt so very satisfied
We felt our money gave us infinite power
We forgot to teach our children about history and honor
We didn抰 have any time to lose
When we were.. (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抯 time to change inside
Open your eyes
Don抰 throw away what抯 right aside
Before the day comes
When there抯 nowhere to run and hide
Now ask yourself 抍ause Allah抯 watching you
Is He satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?
Is Allah satisfied?
