Name of God Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Both our eyes are red
But you're high and I'm crying
You're trying to forget
But it hits me every time

You pray next to me
Right hand holds your left sleeve
Turning our heads gently

'Cause when it ends we fight

[Pre-Chorus]
And in that warm winter, I withered
I just want to get better
I'll be what you like
And every letter of fire
You read me when I'm tired
Makes me want to cry

[Chorus]
Whose Lord are you naming
When you start to break things?
It's my only life you hold
And when you left me waiting
I thought
Did you do it in the name of God?
Did you do it in the name of God?
[Verse 2]
I wake up in the evening
When the day's already done
And I walk to the nearest store
Just to see someone
Everything is black
Your hands and my past
If I don't wake tomorrow
Promise me you'll laugh

[Pre-Chorus]
And in that warm winter, I withered
I just want to get better
I'll be what you like
And every letter of fire
You read me when I'm tired
It's replaying as a choir

[Chorus]
Whose Lord are you naming
When you start to break things?
It's my only life you hold
And when you left me waiting
I thought
Did you do it in the name of God?
Did you do it in the name of God?
In the name of God
In the name of God
[Outro: Mustafa & Cousin Mahmoud]
Will you put on henna today?
God willing
Mahmoud, the boss
I'm not a boss, Hamza is the boss
And what about you?
Me?
Yes
I'm nothing
You're nothing? Allah is perfect
I'm just a human and a Muslim, a human and a Muslim
A Human and a Muslim, haha

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
