    As a name, that is the meaning of "Ameen" is "faithful and trustworthy" but also the word “Ameen or Amen” is used by the Muslims, Christians and Jewish people as declaration just after their prayers. It literally means “so be it”. They say Ameen/Amen after prayers because they want their prayers to be fulfilled by God. It is similar to the word “Tathastu” in Sanskrit. It is also my first name. During the Islamic holy month of Ramadan I found it fitting to drop these shirts. Go grab one while they last! (Cotton Polyester blend to ensure no shrinking or fading!)

lyrics

Alright, let’s get it

Am I doing my best or is there a better way
Thought I was giving my all but I always hesitate
I let my new record play sit and meditate and wonder
If I'm shooting a shot that I'll never ever make
For heavens sake
I done put my all in this
Pray for the best but I can't help but feeling ominous
Like something bad’s about to happen and I need to take some action asking myself will I really risk it all for this
Got myself through school without a college fund or scholarships
Four years of staring at my degree as it tarnishes
Watching everyone around me fold and do exactly what they're told
Green over everything this life is full of garnishes
Sometimes I just wanna scream at the top of my lungs
Feeling dangerous and anxious as a cop with a gun
And even if I had one aiming at my face
Threatening to erase me if I don't change my ways I'm not gonna run
You speak your mind and they'll just say it isn't meaningful
Tell them your dreams and they'll just say it's unachievable
Weight on my shoulders gets heavier every minute I get older
But I thought I told you I am undefeatable
You can speak your mind and they'll just say it isn't meaningful
Tell them your dreams and they'll just say it's unachievable
I'm sick of wasting all my time you don't believe in me that's fine
I'm about to show you something unbelievable
Mother fucker

And if I die
Before I wake
I pray the lord forgives me for all my mistakes
All my mistakes
And if I die

The heart has only two concerns
The first is belief
What do we believe
Because the heart is the source of our belief, it’s where we believe from
When I say my heart’s not in it, it means I don’t believe in it

Yo, They said that it’s a young man’s game racing against my age in my lane
Picture me circle laps in a frame
So when I let it hang off the wall
look over the mantle and see the trophy best driver in the range
The Rover’s not the same when you hop in that Bugatti
Chase dreams of eating with the prince in Abu Dhabi
I’m sitting at the table with a feast, politicking on the beach
With a rare breed of cheetah on the leash
I lost sight of whom I’m up against the vision through your
Ferragamo shades can protect you with the tint
But on the other side of the states
I’m black enough to Lynch a written verse in AmeriKKK
The fate of what I choose to write about can make a martyr
A free man in slave lands with two daughters
They treat me like a God with the gift
I feel like Malcolm working for Martin until the end of my shift
Through all the bullet holes in The Audubon search for the shell case that’ll shine like an Audemars
Watch me as I stretch out hands and make time shall
I take possession and rightfully claim mine
The risk of letting my talent shine, my character’s on the line
I went from six seconds on the Vine
To making me peers rewind rhymes the cyphers in Grind Time
Delivery is proper like I’m Amazon Prime

And if I die
Before I wake
I pray the lord forgives me for all my mistakes
All my mistakes
And if I die

Now belief is easy
Iman is when the belief becomes a conviction
You see in other words when the credal formulation that we’ve learned becomes Something that we’re willing to die for
And this is something very profound

Uh, you ever wonder what death is like
What color is Heaven’s light
Will I go to Hell I might
If I don’t start doing right
I write all my wrongs inside a book full of songs
It’s like it helps me hold on along with rips from the bong
At night I got to be strong and fight
Got to move on and try
I can’t ignore the time don’t know what’s in store it’s fine
You tell me what’s yours is mine I tell you what’s mine is lost
Just like my mind, so if you find it then give me a call
I probably won’t answer cause shit, when do I ever
I feel under the weather and don’t think I’m getting better
Losing pieces of my heart it’s hard to hold it together
I stare at stars and remember the ones I lost can’t forget them Hope you remember me
Not wasting energy on my imagery
I don’t care what you think of me bitch I always been different
Kids were scared to be friends with me can’t be cool
With a loser who goes to school wearing dingy jeans
No name sneakers, dirt stains on a wrinkled tee
Don’t pity me feel bad for anything
They say death is calling I think I just heard my phone ring
But I just keep ignoring, and ignoring
But maybe I should answer it cause what if it’s important
Surrounded by this darkness so I been getting more lit
I find love and every time it stings me like a hornet
People ask if happiness is my goal, I say it sure is
But really I just want to be a voice to these poor kids
Yeah

And if I die
Before I wake
I pray the lord forgives me for all my mistakes
All my mistakes
And if I die

It’s only the life of this world, and we will not be resurrected
Who will bring dead and decaying bones to life after they’ve died
Say the one who brought them back the first time
