How can we be brave, 
If we're all afraid
& how can we love,
If this life is one shade

How to be strong
When our country forcefully moved along
Where do we belong 
& How do we hold on
When life feels too long

Can we hang on
Is fear worth to carry on
Have our hearts withdrawn
Or  can we  start strong and say once upon

What is this life truly based on
& who is the One I can say I count on

How can we be brave, 
If we're all afraid
& how can we love,
If this life is one shade

How come when I prayed
It felt like my only aid
When I turned to Allah
I never felt betrayed
& when I recited Quran 
The truth conveyed

Then I faced heavy fears
But my heart outweighed
Then I chased my dears 
& I raced my tears

How can we be brave, 
If we're all afraid
& how can we love,
If this life is one shade

Can we erase this one shade of grey
Can we replace it with a brighter day
Can we give up on feeling afraid
Can we find a place and say
" Its okay"
