Change

I used to be so vain, mope around sit and complain.

I used to be conceited, loved to love this world.

Inside I was slowly dying, my heart filled with a void.

Then you called me to your mercy, I never thought myself worthy.
To you Allah I pray, each and everyday.

I'm filled with so much joy, my heart is so much happier.

You called me to your mercy, thankyou my dear Lord.

My goals in life have changed, I feel pure like honey.

I smile at your names, my life is now complete.

I'll never be that way again (InshAllah)
