Muslim Belal - Sister lyrics

Sister

Sister, I can't even see your face
Sister, I can't even hear your voice
Sister, I can't even smell your scent
You must be the one Allah sent
Pious sister, I can't even see your face
Sister, I can't even hear your voice
Sister, I can't even smell your scent
You must be the one Allah sent pious sister

Walking in a black veil
Talking in a low voice
She ain't got no smell
She don't wanna see no boys
She's embarrassed when she's out
There in public
Her beauty is amazing but she
Don't make it public she wears flats cuz the
Heels bring her tension
She must be the one my books used to mention
She don't wear make-up, she's HD clear
Her eyebrows haven't been threaded in a year
She got a head fulla knowledge and
A heart full of fear
Eyes full of love and her hands full of care
Loose on the garments that she likes to wear
She could have a good body
But she prevents the stares
I like the way she gets all
Embarrassed when I recite a verse
Like the way she wears her
Abayah with the Converse
And she ain't the type to let me go to sleep
Stressful
Cuz she don't wanna get cursed by the angels

Sister, I can't even see your face
Sister, I can't even hear your voice
Sister, I can't even smell your scent
You must be the one Allah sent
Pious sister, I can't even see your face
Sister, I can't even hear your voice
Sister, I can't even smell your scent
You must be the one Allah sent pious sister

And I love them sisters that try hard
I know it can't be easy in that headscarf
Especially on your own, when the night's dark
In a world where any moment
An attack could start
But, you got faith in the Lord above
Some cover their face and
Their hands with gloves
And they're calling us extreme
But that's nothing new
The ones that came before us were strange too
And I know some need support
On a daily struggle
I see your finding it hard
It's a constant battle
And they'd rather close their palm
And point a finger
Then extend an arm and help a sister
We are in this together
Every female's my aunt, sister or mother
And I love you all, it's a
Bond stronger than any other, oh

Sister, I can't even see your face
Sister, I can't even hear your voice
Sister, I can't even smell your scent
You must be the one Allah sent
Pious sister, I can't even see your face
Sister, I can't even hear your voice
Sister, I can't even smell your scent
You must be the one Allah sent pious sister
