And darkness all around
You feel so helpless
You can`t see which way to go
Corrus: Don`t despair and never loose hope
Cause Allah is always by your side
Reff. Insya Allah 2x
Insya Allah you`ll find your way
Everytime you can make one more mistake
You feel you can`t repent
And that its way too late
Your`re so confused
Wrong decisions you have made
Haunt your mind and your heart is full of shame
Back to Corrus
Back to Reff.
