<p>I posted this on another site and since there's no music section I'll post it here. The rap is being told from the perspective of either a Sunni or Shi'ite..if you didn't know those are the two main divisions within the Islamic faith. <br />Be careful and watch which pronouns are used, it should help and tell you which I am.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>They say stand up for what's right even if you're alone<br />But when blood is the air (heir) war steps to the throne<br />On some vendetta piff when Uthman's eliminated quick<br />Why would I pledge allegiance to enemies of my prophet<br />Do I profit? maybe if I was in the 700's with them conquerin..<br />732 being held up in Pointiers by Martel blockin<br />Or holdin off intermarriage conversions so they stay benefitting,<br />Mawali's paying Jizya..that's their retribution <br />And Jihad's not what it's meant to be...spreadin the Quran<br />Granting avarice through booty leavin the beaten like ramadan<br />Cus a dead body needs no food yet allows others to carry on (carrion).<br />So the reign (rain) carries on, downpour as blood floods the River Zab<br />The origins..Black banners of the Abbasid <br />openly challengin the defying nemesis 747<br />We joining them, rebels breakin off Persia and Iraq (a rock)<br />Cus my arms are pillars like Hercules wantin some of Gibral-tar.<br />Making way past the Tigris onwards for the ultimatum<br />Syria in site as Abu al-Abbas moves in to eradicate-um<br />750 Damascus' stole yet the future tense is steel<br />Carbon's folded and pounded till defeat's instilled<br />Reconciliation is further enforced through assassination<br />Covered in carpets and slaughtered leavin none but one remainin'<br />As they sat by invited to dine on Bacchus' wine<br />It was prophecized that night no Umayyad come out alive<br />A frenzy taking place in the mix to prevent Islam madness<br />We can rejoice since all are dead face first in a bad dish<br />Their souls' exiled cus to luxuries they're infatuatin'<br />So now forbidden fruits is what they're back to tastin'<br />But shit we should've realized it would come to this decision<br />Baghdad built close to Ctesiphon forwarned absolutism.<br />Using us to best any rival that looked a threat<br />Now they've flip- flopped views sayin our sects are heretic...</p>
<p>Who am I?</p>

Is everyone viewing it afraid someone will make fun of them if they're wrong? Just guess if you want, it's also to be viewed as something I wrote..!

Yes, I wrote it as stated in my second post. Are you confused as how it's set up or as in you don't know about some history of Sunni's and Shi'ites?

<p>No, I just wrote it up, but I was considering putting it on something for fun though it seemed rather awkward just talking from a Shi'ites POV instead of an overall view. Maybe I'll do a series of them (Classical Civilizations..Roman empire, Hellenistic era, Han/Qin dynasty, Gupta and Maurya's, America's, and so on as they're rather fun.</p>
