From the song

Al Haqq الحق by SNX

The title means "the truth" and also "the right," as in what is owed. Spoken-sung in Egyptian Arabic, it is a statement of faith in justice. Whatever corruption surrounds us, in many people and many places, the truth has to appear, because there is a God who is just. What was taken must go back to its owners: your right, my right, our children's right. However big the wrongdoing and whatever people do, they cannot stand against the truth, since God is the just one. The chorus is a plain repeated claim that the truth must return and is always visible. It closes on the personal: my right in my house, my right in my children.

Deeper meaning

Hope for justice with a religious basis, aimed at ordinary people who have lost something (money, land, standing, family). It has no named target, but it is a social song with a faith frame, like Gate of the Soul and All Those Corrupt Institutions.
