gabrielknowseverything - peacebeuponyou lyrics

(chorus)
asalamalakem, alakemsalam
tell me what’s a man
to the word of god
asalamalakem, alakemsalam
tell me what’s a man
to the word of god

(verse 1)
information age
dying slow burn deaths to the media
dissipation and it berates me
flying so close to the meaning here
when i was six years old 9/11 changed my life
american, or terrorist, well somehow you decide
my father told me everything would change
in 1990’s when he came to america to take
care of his family and then he met my moms
had me a couple years later, word to god
i grew up as a muslim in the bible belt, they say i’m wicked as cain, but i ain’t k!lling my brother, if that’s the case, then i ain’t insane

(hook)
i don’t know
what the future holds
all i know
is i don’t know
(repeat 2x)

(verse 2)
menace to society
when i was 72 months old, just a baby
as i discover the truth i wonder, why would you lie to me
i need to know
when i was seventeen i fell in love with mary jane sutton
she went to church like twice a week admit that i was smitten
i loved her mind, but she declined, she said i was a muslim
could never date, though she relate, she told me that she loved me
heartbroken and confused ’bout who i was i took the plunge
4-6 blunts every day, i liked the blackened lungs
regardless of the pain i felt was always who i was
said f— the system did this to me came around to love i love now

(pre-chorus)
peacebeuponyou
is what it means
peacebeuponyou
is what it means

(chorus)
asalamalakem, alakemsalam
tell me what’s a man
to the word of god
asalamalakem, alakemsalam
tell me what’s a man
to the word of god

(hook)
i don’t know
what the future holds
all i know
is i don’t know
(repeat 2x)

(verse 3)
peace that’s in the holy land as present as the part
the west world played stopping violence from the start
my grandmother only spoke arabic but all i ever knew was english, rest in peace
all the lessons that my father teach me
learning i was different picking up the pieces
bullied in the cl-ssroom for my religion
always knowing in my heart that i ain’t different
american or terrorist you see the difference
radical islamism or white supremacy
hatred move to love and if you ever feel
tell me that you feel me

(outro)
asalamalakem, alakemsalam
tell me what’s a man
to the word of god
