Lyrics

So I'm gonna say I'm a rock. I'm a rock. And in this song, I'm gonna be a tree. I'm a tree. And both of us at the end of the song, we're gonna be what, Sumi? People. People. Rock, trees, and people. This is a song called I Am the Sirach by my dear friend, Edward Warren. Ready, Sumi? I'm just a rock and every day I sit and watch the sky. I'm sleeping in the sun and rain and chilling in the ocean water. I don't want to be a bird, cause this rock's been a long night to climb. But you can sit and rest on me when you pass by. Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I'm a rock. And that is all Allah asks of me. Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I'm a Muslim. There is nothing else I'd rather be. I am just a tree and this is the only life I'll ever know. I bow my bow to worship wherever I feel the wind blow. And my purpose in life is to grow and the losses grow. In your home for the birds and shade for folks below. But alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I'm a tree. And that is all Allah asks of me. Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I'm a Muslim. There is nothing else I'd rather be. All right, now we're people. I am just a person and my life is full of opportunity. I can travel through the world over land and over sea. But will I choose a path of truth or a path to misguide me? Sometimes I wish I had a simple life just like a rock or a tree. But alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, I'm a person. Allah has given me a choice that's free. Alhamdulillah, I choose to be a Muslim. There is nothing else I'd rather be. There is nothing else I'd rather be. Thank you.
