The Hijab Lyrics

[Verse 3]
She makes her way to the bathroom
Takes off her bag and starts spraying her perfume
Changes her clothes to match the girls in her classroom
Looks in the mirror can’t believe what she is seein
American eagle beaters with Marilyn cleavage features
Leggings that brings her ass out, Something to make her stand out
Thinking shed make some friends now, Wait till you see what happens now
The curtain opens out there she starts performin
Showing skin to lure men it was an act of revenge
Well, it sure worked she told him its all yours
Without a consideration what could her conscious be thinking
Despite the fact shes accepted, in this normal environment
Asked her what was her number she couldn’t give a reply
With a hint of sigh, so she tried to make her mind up
Wondered where she would wind up into this niggas pickup truck
It switches from, a normal conversation
Talked about her emotions but really hes contemplating
Ways to cop a feels shes distracted by his compliments
This is funny a week ago he threw bacon at her
Guess she forgave him after she finally got attention

[Bridge 2]
His eyes were on her chest her eyes were on his eyes

[Verse 4]
He puts his, hands on her thighs and slowly fumbles her lips
Finally realized that shes never been kissed or
Touched in a way she push his hands out the way
He told her its all worth it 'cause finally you are perfect
And even if you’re a virgin I promise that It won't hurt
So she did nothing instead he pulls her closer as he
Feels for those lips that moisten once she is moaning
A feeling she never felt and she don’t know what to call it
Was this love? Or was it guilt? That she has abandoned faith-
And now its crumbling down shes finally on her knees
Expecting to beg for god instead shes giving him head
And feelings were being lead (feelings were being lead)
He pushed himself inside of her though!
She felt nothing but pain anger and shame
She’s walking home bloods pouring down her legs
Rushes straight to bathroom, changes and bathe
Shes, moaning in pain next morning she starts to pray
But instead she wasn’t focused just the thought that shes impure
Can she endure, this wretched curse shes facing everyday
Slowly shes showing cuts later shes throwin up
Clutching her belly its looking swollen
The story's folding and ended with out an end
She ended up getting pregnant what could she say to her parents
Cover, just cover it up to make em think your innocent
[Outro w/ Fox News Clips]
Takbir!
Bismillah
Bismillah

Genius Annotation

This song ventures out in the life of a girl who’s name is Eman, who faces islamaphobia in New York. This song is an obstacle that she couldn’t overcome because how this society wanted her to be, so in the song she loses her eman (which means ‘faith’ in arabic) and eventually becomes what society wants her to be, sacrificed religion and culture and became a slave to the american culture.

This song samples the piano from Issac Heyes ‘Monologue Ike’s Rap’ and drums from Cold Grits ‘Its Your Thing’
