Galloping horse across desert hills
and it thrills
Sending chills
I’m extending my will
on the wind
to the world
and it swirls as the sand curls
around and away
as I pray
I will know Jihad.
Jihad, divine struggle
Trynna rise above the subtle
ruts and pebbles
Lead to
stumbles and mistakings
that impede my undertakings.
Gotta live sincerely
in the light of the way
every day
as I pray
I will know Jihad.
And not that false elation
of murder, desecration
Sin and chaos, they’re creating
ol’ Baghdadi and his crew.
Frankly, I’m appropriatin
not a muslim, I’m just sayin,
that the word has deeper meanin
than Fox News is phrasin’.
Jihad is amazin’
Talkin seeking alignment
Allah, for some, defines it
for me it’s pan-divine
Either way, we’re trynna find
a vantage
Authentic, tremendous
in community
in victory
in charity
in revery
to see
the world as a sacred place
the human race
as a thing to embrace
and every one of us a child
of divine grace.
Transcend the idols
that lead us astray
Harmony in dedication
Striving ever for attainment
of a surer, deeper place in
the memetic constellation.
As deep nature orchestrates
the name of God’s for ululatin’
out in tune with the vibration
only then will we be sayin
that we know Jihad
