A song I wrote/vocalled for a brave 17 year old girl named 'Hareem' who wrote a book titled 'My Struggle Against Cancer' (available in markets). I was inspired by her story she had to share. I made this song in 20 minutes, because I had to burn the C
Just a hobby.
I don't believe in 'groups' in order to create
and generate [greatness], I believe in being
a One Man Army. Nobody helps nobody, I am
my own best friend, nobody else can figure
me more than I. Its Me, Myself and I
for the world that revolves around
me is all what makes me who I am.
Story behind the song
Inspired by a true story; A brave girl's faith in God, that helped her give a new life.
Lyrics
AFTER THE RAIN
[Verse One: ]
Another pain killer, another chemotherapy
No proper sleep, no, probably
the medicine they gave me, made me feel
and I knew exactly what my parents never revealed
Too many questions, with a single answer...
"I was diagnosed with blood cancer"
The pain and stress had made me numb
"Can anyone save me from
all the pain I succumb
the same, a day will come
I'll be on my own again,
I don't get it why they postponing days,
Left in confusion, having blood transfusions,
"Belief" was the only solution
They say "Only when your no longer afraid,
We learn to live,
I turn to life, to show God what I have give"
Day in and day out my family prayed
"Put the needle away", although I was never afraid,
God knew I was brave
& although life may be unfair
But, I never despair, Why should I?
"When Allah Is Near"
No more tears and no more sorrow
Theres a new day ahead of me, I'll live tomorrow
[chorus2x]
Walk blind to the light
and reach out for reason,
don't ask any questions
and don't try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
You will see that you and me are very far apart
Because, I believe....
[Verse TWO: ]
Apple of my father's eyes,
My mother cried, as I lied
before her loving eyes, I realise
what family ties are,
unconditional love is what they gave me,
It was the faith in God, who saved me, my life
He gave me, my life back, It was only a test
I gave it my best, fighting the stress,
I was Only His choosen one, I was blessed
heh, And so I guessed ....
Hopes never die, they never did
And so they never will, I'll never quit
I promised myself and I never did,
I'll live my life, and endeavour it,
together with my family... forever still
[chorus2x]
Walk blind to the light
and reach out for reason,
don't ask any questions
and don't try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
You will see that you and me are very far apart
Because, I believe.... that love is the answer
I believe... love will find a way
[Bridge2x]
No more injections to the veins,
I discover love again....
No more tears after the pain
No more stress and No more strain,
And there I see a rainbow after the rain
After The Rain
After The Rain
Take Me Home,
Take Me Home, again...
[chorus2x]
Walk blind to the light
and reach out for reason,
don't ask any questions
and don't try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
You will see that you and me are very far apart
Because, I believe.... that love is the answer
I believe... love will find a way
I believe that love is the answer [6x]
