From the song

Ana Alsih'r أنا السحر by SNX

Not a song in the usual sense but a spoken monologue in formal Arabic over a beat. "I am the magic" is the repeated claim. Imagine no fear, no ego, no indifference, no insecurity, only pure magic. Then a list of people it is not the fault of: your mother, your father, your lover, your friend, your boss, your teacher, your guide, and the point that you may not be living at your full potential and the responsibility lies with you. The speaker says the difference between himself and the listener is that he does not make magic, he is the magic. Prayer without action is wishing; you do not need someone to sell you a secret dose or recipe because you already carry it. The close borrows the language of scripture, with the speaker saying "I am the light, the way, the truth," meaning that the divine is in you.

Deeper meaning

A self-help sermon: stop blaming, own your power, and the divine spark is already inside. The voice is that of a coach, not a poet.
