Awaken Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

AmWe were given so many prizes

FWe changed the deserGt into oasis

AmWe built buildings of different lengths and sizes

FAnd we felt so vGery satisfied

AmWe bought and bought

FWe couldn't stGop buying

AmWe gave charity to the poor cuz

FWe couldn't standG their crying

AmWe thought we paid our dues

FBut in fact to ourselvGes we're just lying

Ooh I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place

I'm walking with my head lowered from my race

Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west

When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place

I'm walking with my head lowered from my race

Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west

When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

We were told what to buy and we bought

We went to London, Paris and Costa Del Sol

We made sure we were seen in the most exclusive shops

Yes we felt so very satisfied!

I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place

I'm walking with my head lowered from my race

Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west

When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place

I'm walking with my head lowered from my race

Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west

When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

We became individuals without a soul

Despite the heat

Our homes felt so empty and cold

To fill the emptiness

We bought and bought

Maybe all the fancy cars

And bling will make us feel satisfied

My dear brothers and sisters

It's time to change inside

Open your eyes

Don't throw away what's right aside

Before the day comes

When there's nowhere to run and hide

Now ask yourself cuz Allah's watching you

Is He satisfied?

Is Allah satisfied? [x3]

Ooh I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place

I'm walking with my head lowered from my race

Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west

When in fact all focus should be on ourselves

I'm walking with my head lowered in shame from my place

I'm walking with my head lowered from my race

Yes it's easy to blame everything on the west

When in fact all focus should be on ourselves (ourselves)
