TRANQUILO

[Chorus: KHXLED SIDDIQ]
I've been out here gettin' on my Deen, bro
Every day, balancing good and evil
You know I do it for the Lord, not the people
So tell them boys better keep it tranquilo
We don't wanna hear a word, not a peep, bro
Can't you see our brothers dying on the streets though?
Every day a mother's crying, where'd the peace go?
'Cause I know you hear them sirens when police go

[Verse 1: KHXLED SIDDIQ]
Swear dis life is not a game or a playground
Gwan shot up, let dem think there no spare round
Gotta keep your wits close, better lay down
When police come, run like a greyhound
Blackout (blackout), in the lanes them a real gon' clap us (Clap us)
Mothers crying cah their heart dem shut off (Shut off)
The youths, why dem now denyin' their mothers?
Surrounded by drugs and money and trappers

[Pre-Chorus: KHXLED SIDDIQ]
So you know we affi stick to the Deen, bro
Dead or jail if you live by di street code
So don't be chasin' the stars or no' the gyal and the cars
Keep your head down and keep it tranquilo

[Chorus: KHXLED SIDDIQ]
I've been out here gettin' on my Deen, bro
Every day, balancing good and evil
You know I do it for the Lord, not the people
So tell them boys better keep it tranquilo
We don't wanna hear a word, not a peep, bro
Can't you see our brothers dying on the streets though?
Every day a mother's crying, where'd the peace go?
'Cause I know you hear them sirens when police go

[Verse 2: Mohammed Yahya]
Lately, I feel disowned
And broken and all alone
The devils have planted seeds of hatred inside my soul
I'm running, where can I go?
(Lord, I truly know)
I try to hide my flaws but to You they always show
'Cause You know me better than I know myself
Struggling with mental health
Don't ask for help, so no one could tell
Suffering inside my shell
Still I praise the Lord and it's prayed on the d-low
I manouevre silent, got to keep it tranquilo
These streets are heartless
Quick, turn you into martyrs
Sick, how they take our brothers
Split family amongst us
Regardless of the darkness, the conflict that we have started
We never lost our faith so love we try to harness

[Bridge: Mohammed Yahya]
ٱللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّد ٱلْفَاتِحِ لِمَا
أُغْلِق، وَٱلْخَاتِمِ لِمَا سَبَق، نَاصِرِ ٱلْحَقّ بِٱلْحَقّ
وَٱلْهَادِي إِلَىٰ صِرَاطِكَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيم
وَعَلَىٰ آلِهِ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ وَمِقْدَارِهِ ٱلْعَظِيم

[Chorus: KHXLED SIDDIQ]
I've been out here gettin' on my Deen, bro
Every day, balancing good and evil
You know I do it for the Lord, not the people
So tell them boys better keep it tranquilo
We don't wanna hear a word, not a peep, bro
Can't you see our brothers dying on the streets though?
Every day a mother's crying, where'd the peace go?
'Cause I know you hear them sirens when police go

[Verse 3: Brother Ali]
Money changed hands, many change friends
The cloth around your frame tend to change with the trends
Images placed in a frame often pretend
But everything held in your hand come to an end
Breathe out, in, 'til sometime and some space
Loved ones dump dirt upon your face
No matter how high one fly, he got to die
There's something about that one devout du‘a
'Cause when the shell become irrelevant, how come the light in living hearts become illuminated? By
Lord, guard the sight
Some chase the body, lose life
Some escape like a unchained slave, break outside
Vice, only God can teach you how to guide your people
Get your sight to see through all the earthly trials that greet you
If your enemies defeat you, they release you
Can't take the life of someone who is givin' it, tranquilo
