Lyrics:

We on that relaxed
So serene
We on that laid back
All ease
Mellow low key
It all works out for me
Olive oil aloe
Keep my skin aglow
Rose water bath
Goodness in my path
Bakhoor light it up
Shay in my cup
It's a henna party
Come on move your body
Dabkeh til dawn
Argili on the lawn
Yallah come on
This is our song
This is our song

Rolling with my khaltos
Shooting free throws with the Mo’s
Siyasa with my Ammo's
Everybody knows
This is how it goes
This is how it goes

They try to villainize us
What this is implies is
Jealous of our culture
no they can’t touch her
no they can’t touch her

It's a 3azeemeh
baby can you hear me
poetry in motion
What's the commotion

Brought Bilad Al-Sham
right to Michigan
Flint to Detroit
Dearborn - on point
Soul of my soul
closer than close
This is family
Yeah we doing the most
Yeah we doing the most
Yeah we doing the most

We on that relaxed
So serene
We on that laid back
All ease
Mellow low key
It all works out for me
Olive oil aloe
Keep my skin aglow
Rose water bath
Goodness in my path
Bukhoor light it up
Shay in my cup
Its a henna party
Come on move yo body
Dabkeh til dawn
Argili on the lawn
Yallah come on
This is our song
This is our song

The intercom is innercalm
Sippin’ on some lemon balm
Mama interpreting dreams
Telling us what it all means

This culture way more than physical
This lineage deep and spiritual
Teaching resilience brilliance
Based on experience

On that spiritual alchemy
Turning tragedy into sanctity
Through the Most High’s Majesty
We on that good energy
Free flow treasury

We let the light shine through
Peace be upon you
And you and you
Peace be upon you
And you and you

Peace

Mona, I too am non-Muslim but there is something so peaceful about your songs. They take me to a stay on the beach just as the sun rises and to the mountains that are still capped with snow. Thank you for giving us music that is art.

And yet, why do we treat indignation like it’s an illness. Perhaps it’s just a symptom of something greater we in the US refuse to acknowledge?
