Lyrics
[Intro]
[low vocal register][Arabic chanting]
La ilaha illallah
Rabbi ya Rabbi
Fi qalbi sakhr kabeer
Anta nur
Anta tadbir
[Verse 1]
Master pointed at the mountain
At a rough old stubborn stone
Said
"Servant
Work that rock"
Then he left me there alone
Day one
Pushed it with my shoulder
Day ten
Rope around my waist
Every angle
Every effort
Sweat and dust across my face
[Chorus]
The rock
The rock
The rock still standing
But I'm not who I used to be
Thought the task was all about moving that stone
Turns out the rock was working on me
Challenges are blessings in disguise
Cutting truth through my pride so clean
Yeah
The rock
The rock
The rock still standing
But I'm stronger than I’ve ever been
[Verse 2]
Hammer
Lever
Pulled and pleaded
Shouted at that silent wall
Seasons changed and I got bitter
"Why this weight
Why at all?"
Knees cracked
I hit the gravel
Said
"Master
Did I fail?"
Then I heard his footsteps coming
Soft as rain on rusted rail
[Bridge]
[whispered vocals]
He said
"Look at your hands now
Look at your shaking knees
Feel the patience in your breathing
Feel the courage when you breathe"
[low vocal register][Arabic chanting]
Alhamdulillah ‘ala kulli hal
Fi kulli shidda
Fiha jalal
[Chorus]
[Outro]
[guitar solo][crescendo]
I keep my palms on the boulder
Heart like a bell in my chest
Every hard thing that I lean on
Carves my name into my own flesh
[soft Arabic chanting fading]
Ya Sabur… Ya Sabur…
