We Are Not To Blame Lyrics by Thareak Qureshi

2016

[Bridge]
I got a Muslim name, I wear Muslim skin
Am I the one to blame? For what is happening
Look at me, 17, every time I see a death, my heart bleeds
Children are trapped and they wanna be free
Life is a blur, they just wanna see
[Verse 1]
When the bombs were falling, I was in school reading
When the guns were firing, Dad was at work working
So explain to me how I'm the one to blame
Innocents out there, all share the pain
I get labelled as a terror on a day-to-day
And I gotta pay for someone else's mistakes
[Chorus] (x8)
We are not blame, I weren't firing
[Verse 2]
Islam's a religion of peace, 1.6 billion we roll deep
Don't use our religion, to justify your acts
Have you ever sat down and studied the facts?
We face the backlash of your crimes
This ain't no new story, it's all the time
The hardships we face on a daily basis
Tryna write it down but it's hard to say this
[Rap]
Got a Muslim name
Am I to blame for the things going on in this day and age
I feel for the Ummah, struggling to cope bruh
Cuz of what's happening we can't show our face
Sisters are scared to be who they are
Getting attacked just for wearing hijab
Brothers can't walk down the street with their thobe
They fear for their lives, please help them Allah
We all need to be different cuz, don't be scared of nobody bruv
Strengthen yourself, only fear your Lord
And fight for your truth with your words
No swords needed
Please stop all the bleeding
Think of yourself do you like this feeling?
Not knowing if tomorrow evening, it's your estate on the breaking news
[Bridge]
I got a Muslim name, I wear Muslim skin
Am I the one to blame? For what is happening
Look at me, 17, every time I see a death, my heart bleeds
Children are trapped and they wanna be free
Life is a blur, they just wanna see
