the mountain falls on Mohammed

      late in the sixth
      round spitting blood
      mohammed couldn't recall
      if he'd paid zakat or
      maybe skipped the fifth
      forehead to the
      floor

      something was sure as
      hell wrong and
      he was ready to
      make a hajj
      out of harm's way

      ass kicked & bone tired
      one trip too many to
      the mountain

      when it wouldn't come
      to him

      i am but a simple
      muttaqeen
      he howled

      sung by a straight right
      from allah's
      powerful arm
      rocked to his
      bones

      hoping only to
      hold out long as

      jesus did
