Ooh I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place

My dear brother and sister
It's time to change inside

Open your eyes

Don't throw away what's right aside

Before the day comes

When there's nowhere to run and hide

Now ask yourself cuz Allah's watching you

Is He satisfied?

Is Allah satisfied? [x3]
