The content of this piece reflects the idea that nothing will remain. Our character constantly changes, the materials we consume grow out of date, the friends we thought will forever stay will fade, systems of oppression will eventually collapse, and lastly every single one of us regardless of our status or wealth will taste death.

Verse 1: (Essam)
we must question intentions
the way that we living
shortcomings and sinning/
our governments trippen
our leaders are lying
we following gimmicks,
the west is my home
i said it before and i’ll say it again/
they killing our people
not knowing it’s written
we’ll die by the pen/
the way that we’re bred
is to love and give in to materialism/
the way that we living
is to treat this Dunya
as if it is infinite/
i had homies who told me they real
but they showed me they really just counterfeit/
so i had to move on
surround myself around those i see will benefit/
gotta keep it one hundred
my life as a youngin my vision was blurred/
now i realize it was a blessing
each moment was never a curse/
never selling my soul to the devil
fosho i know what i am worth/
a mountain of gold will not matter
when i will return to the dirt/
six feet in the earth/
i pray i get resurrected and my good deeds
outweighing my sins/
Jahannam it never will end/
are we losing and choosing the movements
of who is pursuing
the path seeing merely illusions/
no need for confusion
we’re given the guide
do we follow it/
at the end of it all
the kingdoms will fall
and they still say they live for the hell of it/
Chorus: (Faisal Salah)
at the end of it all
when the kingdoms fall
at the end of it all
will my name be called
will i rise
or will i fall
at the end of it all (2x)
Bridge: (Faisal Salah)
at the end of it all
will i still be here
at the end of it all
will we live without fear
Verse 2: (Prospect)
is living hard
or is dying hard
couple questions we need answers to/
should we trust or run away from cops
hard to tell when they attacking you/
small weapons
big shells
became a mandatory carry/
and all this offensive behavior
make it so we die before we getting married/
living this life like we living it twice/
alive in the day you can die by the night/
i know i just wanna die when its right
but how will i know when its not in my sight/
as a youngin death never seemed so close i
don’t know when I’m going
but i hope that angels close by/
education never mentions almost everything came from Islam/
all types of mathematics
to numbers that fill up your wrist watch/
at the end of it all
it all ends
when Istrafeel blows the trumpet/
choose your companions wisely
cuz caskets dont come with no bunk beds/
Chorus: (Faisal Salah)
at the end of it all
when the kingdoms fall
at the end of it all
will my name be called
will i rise
or will i fall
at the end of it all (2x)
Outro: (Faisal Salah)
at the end of it all (2x)
will we ever be free
at the end of it all
will we ever know peace
look to the valley
look to the sea
at the end of it all
may we find harmony
