[Verse 1] You watched the colored coat catch fire And called your envy righteous ground A well swallowed the youngest brother While your borrowed courage gathered round You sold him cheap to passing strangers A name, a price, a sealed-up lie But every hand that traded him away Could not bargain with the Most High [Pre-Chorus] The road ran far from home and comfort Still patience kept its steady flame What you intended as an ending Could never write his final name [Chorus] You can cast him down, you can lock the door You can wound the heart, but you can’t own what’s more When Allah writes a future, no fist can make it bend The one you tried to break may rise—and you may face what you have done He rose through every bitter year With truth intact and purpose clear Don’t harm another soul to dim their light Their destiny is not yours to fight [Verse 2] He served with care in a foreign household Kept his word when no one praised Then came the trial, the whispered danger And prison walls enclosed his days In quiet, he was taught to read dreams To find the meaning others missed A cell became a school of wisdom No chain could silence what Allah had willed [Pre-Chorus] A ruler dreamed of years of plenty Then hunger rolling through the land Yusuf spoke with clear translation And wisdom turned the king’s own hand [Chorus] You can cast him down, you can lock the door You can wound the heart, but you can’t own what’s more When Allah writes a future, no fist can make it bend The one you tried to break may rise—and you may face what you have done He rose through every bitter year With truth intact and purpose clear Don’t harm another soul to dim their light Their destiny is not yours to fight [Bridge] To every child they laugh at, leave behind Your worth is not the verdict of their eyes The cruelty they plant will not become your name Their deed belongs to them; your road remains No bully stands above the decree No jealous hand can claim the unseen The hurt they send returns as their own weight While you keep walking toward what’s yours by fate [Final Chorus] You can cast him down, you can lock the door But Allah’s decree is deeper than the floor You can wound the heart, you cannot choose the end The one you tried to bury may rise—and you will answer for the harm you send He stood as minister, steadfast and wise With mercy shining clear in his eyes Don’t harm another soul to dim their light Their destiny is not yours to fight [Outro] Their hands could sell him, never his fate Allah’s promise does not come too late
