I AM NOT AFRAID TO STAND ALONE

Assalamualaikum,

This is dedicated to those who are feeling low, stressed, depressed etc etc. I hope this nasyeed by NATIVE DEEN gives u HOPE that there is the One who will ALWAYS stand by you. InsyaAllah.

I am not afraid to stand alone

I am not afraid to stand alone

If Allah is by my side

I am not afraid to stand alone

Everything is gonna be alright

I am not afraid to stand alone

Going keep my head up high

I am not afraid to stand alone

If Allah is by my side

Everything is going be alright

Going to keep my head up high

Single mother raising her children

And Now she's a Muslim

Started praying and wearing a headscarf

It Was a healing for her heart

Struggling with no one to lean on

But with prayer she would be strong

Had a job but then she was laid off

Got a better education and it paid off

She was called for a job that she dreamed of

Close by, great pay -she was in love --They brought her in -- told her shes the 1 pick

You got the job, but you gotta lose the outfit

"It's a tough position that you put me in Cause look at my condition, and my two children

But I'll continue looking for a job again Cause my faith and my religion I will never bend

I am not afraid to stand alone

I am not afraid to stand alone

If Allah is by my side

I am not afraid to stand alone

Everything is gonna be alright

I am not afraid to stand alone

Going keep my head up high

I am not afraid to stand alone If Allah is by my side

Everything is going be alright Going to keep my head up high

Peer pressure, they were insisting

And I was resisting Some days.... I felt I would give in Just wanted to fit in

I know.....when I'm praying and fasting'

They be teasing and laughing

So I called to my Lord for the power

For the strength every day, every hour...one day there's a new Muslim teacher

Single mom and the people respect her

Just seeing.... her strength I get stronger

They can break my will no longer

You don't see me sweatin' when they're jokes cracking

Never see me cussing' with my pants saggin' I aint never running Yo Im still standing,

sorry I aint jumping on your band wagon, cause...

I am not afraid to stand aloneI am not afraid to stand alone

If Allah is by my sideI am not afraid to stand alone

Everything is gonna be alrightI am not afraid to stand alone

Going keep my head up highI am not afraid to stand alone

If Allah is by my side Everything is going be alright

Going to keep my head up high

Now, I'm a tough one, who can bear their blows

The rest play dumb, they don't dare say no

Scared of being shunned, but its clear they know

I aint never gonna run, I aint scared no more....

Man, these sisters be resolute

Never stressed when the rest say they wasn't cute

And the get the respect of the other youth

Come best with the dress yo and thats the truth

These sisters are strong gonna hand it down

So me Im a brotha gotta stand my ground

No fear, Im tough Im the man in town

Peer pressure no more, its my planet now

Others may fall, but Im hold my own

With Allahs help I'll be strong as stone

And I'll be the one to let Al Islam be shownCause I am not afraid yo to stand alone

I am not afraid to stand aloneI am not afraid to stand alone

If Allah is by my sideI am not afraid to stand alone

Everything is gonna be alright I am not afraid to stand alone

Going keep my head up high I am not afraid to stand alone

If Allah is by my side Everything is going be alright

Going to keep my head up high
