Lyrics

Oh, it's all too hard. What can we do? They're over there, and we've got problems here too. He's got bills to be paid. Her rent's running late. Line after line, same story every time. Sleeping sound in our bed, roof overhead. Are we blind? Can't we see what is happening to those in need? Oh you, oh you, believe. Listen to the words of Allah, and don't be a miser. Oh you, oh you, take a look at yourself in the mirror. And you, and you, should be ashamed of their pain. Tell me how is it that we all turn a blind eye? Why do we all sit back and let our people die? Why do we only think about ourselves? We're so greedy when it comes to our wealth. Don't you feel their pain? Our thoughts of them should never fade away. On a lapless leg, cries a child tired. Birds of prey overhead. It's that old story, knowing he's a heartbeat away from death. Oh you, oh you, believe. Listen to the words of Allah, and don't be a miser. Why is it that we all turn a blind eye? Is it that we only care about our own life? Let us give in charity for the sake of Allah. Wherever you are, near or far, near or far. Oh you, oh you, take a look at yourself in the mirror. And you, and you, should be ashamed of their pain. Tell me how is it that we all turn a blind eye? Why do we all sit back and let our people die? Why do we only think about ourselves? We're so greedy when it comes to our wealth. Don't you feel their pain? Our thoughts of them should never fade away. Fade away.
