In this song, Umar reflects on the concept of being blessed and the experiences that come along with it. The chorus emphasizes the idea that despite the struggles and challenges faced, Umar constantly reminds himself that he is blessed. He finds solace in smoking weed and allowing his mind to relax and reflect on his journey.
The first verse starts by acknowledging that Umar believes he shouldn't be where he is, but he attributes his presence to the will of Jah (God). He expresses gratitude for the strength given to him to survive the lonely days and to see through the deceitful people who kick you when you are down but are quick to support you when you achieve success. Umar also mentions that he chooses not to associate with certain company, indicating that he values his independence and resilience since his school days when he didn't even have lunch money. Despite the challenges, he finds comfort in his faith and the prayers to his father, Jah.
The second verse tackles the idea that being human means making mistakes and it's impossible to be perfect. Umar highlights the notion that negative thoughts can lead to negative consequences, urging listeners to focus on finding solutions rather than rebellious actions that may lead to death. He also expresses the pain and vulnerability he feels, comparing himself to a Taurus (a symbol of strength and determination) protecting his heart. Umar acknowledges the days when he relies solely on God's mercy.
In the final chorus, Umar reiterates the mantra of reminding himself that he is blessed despite the real struggles he faces. He emphasizes the importance of finding moments of relaxation and meditation through smoking weed. Umar also acknowledges that he doesn't need anyone's approval or validation (testimony) and that even if he does his best, he cannot save everyone in the world. He concludes by stating that Jah protects him, even in dangerous situations like being stabbed or shot. These experiences and protections are what Umar believes happen when one is blessed.

Omar ibn Khattab ra speaking:
I had finished a hard day’s work and toil under the sweltering heat of the sun. After returning my flock to their enclosures, I decided to visit some of my friends. I was twenty-five years old and I wanted to relax and have a good time in the evening. I walked towards one of the taverns to have a cool, refreshing drink with my comrades, as the night was still hot and humid. When I was going past the Holy Sanctuaries, I spotted the lone figure of the Prophet-pbuh engaged in meditation and reciting the Quran. Just as Abu Jahl had alleged, I distinctly noticed that he was deliberately standing with his back to the idol of Al-Uzza and he was directly facing the Kabba. I was filled with anger at this disregard and rejection of the deity.
‘This is the man who is breaking up our society and humiliating our wise Elders,’ Abu Jahl’s poisonous accusations, resonated in my mind. Out of anger and curiosity, I silently hid behind the wall of the Kabba to monitor his actions and listen to his recitation. He was unaware of my presence and was totally focused on his prayers. At that very moment, clouds drifted across the dark skies and blocked out the moonlight. The surroundings of the Kabba turned pitch black. I looked towards the silhouette of Al-Uzza and the deity seemed to activate, trigger thoughts in my mind, as if complaining about her humiliation and demanding vengeance through my hands. There was nobody in the sanctuary apart from myself and the Prophet- pbuh. This was a good opportunity for me to attack him and permanently silence his voice. There were no witnesses. With my wrestling abilities and raw strength, I was confident that I could stealthily approach from behind his back and throttle him with my unbreakable, choke hold. I knew that the Prophet-pbuh had a reputation as a skillful wrestler and that he was more than capable of defending himself against a face-to-face onslaught. However, he was completely engrossed in his prayer and was oblivious to my presence. I stayed hidden behind the Kabba, psyching myself and preparing to launch a surprise attack. I was determined to ambush him to please Al-Uzza. To finish him once and for all and win the favours of the chieftains and become a hero among the pagans of Makka. He stood up from his prostration and began to recite in a loud, powerful and melodious voice, sura ‘Al-Haqqa.’ Unlike the majority of the Makkan population, I am literate and well-read thanks to the efforts of both of my parents. Momentarily, I hesitated, reflecting on the beauty and eloquence of his recitation. The first thought which flashed in my mind was the accusation levelled against him by the Quraysh, namely, that he is a sensational and gifted poet. From behind the wall of the Kabba, I heard the direct response to my mental assumption; ‘And it is not the words of a poet. Little is it that you believe.’ [69:41]. My mind then immediately contemplated the second accusation made against him, asserting that he was a soothsayer, a wicked sorcerer and wizard who had become possessed by jinns and demons. The precincts of the Kabba again echoed and resonated with the telepathic rebuttal; ‘Nor the words of a soothsayer (or a fortune teller). Little is it that you remember.' 69:42] I was taken aback, astonished and mesmerised at the distinct and audible replies to the inner workings of my mind. Although, unaware of my presence, he was directly replying to my innermost secretive thoughts: He is a poet! NO. He is a soothsayer! Again, a definitive NO.
‘Where are these words coming from?’ the maelstrom within my mind questioned. For the third consecutivetime, the Kabba resounded with the astonishing reply; ‘It is a revelation sent down from the Lord of the Worlds (for the benefit of mankind, jinns and creation in its entirety.)’
