Lyrics
VERSE 1:
Beneath Cairo’s digital moon, a screen begins to sway
Moving banners, blinking stars that never go away
Two point two point two they call this ancient rule
Where restless motion finds its peace, like water finding pool
The scrolling news won’t cease its dance, five seconds come and go
But wisdom whispers “pause, stop, hide” – let users take control
CHORUS:
Ya habibi, the dancing light must wait
When minds need time to concentrate
Give them power to make it still
Two point two point two, bend to their will
The moving world can overwhelm the soul
Let them pause, let them breathe, give back control
VERSE 2:
Some hearts flutter like the dove when pixels won’t be still
Attention scattered in the wind against the viewer’s will
Stock tickers racing, ads that flash beside the words they read
Essential movement has its place, but choice is what they need
A button here, a gesture there, to stop the endless show
For parallel content that moves must honor those below
CHORUS:
Ya habibi, the dancing light must wait
When minds need time to concentrate
Give them power to make it still
Two point two point two, bend to their will
The moving world can overwhelm the soul
Let them pause, let them breathe, give back control
BRIDGE/OUTRO:****
In the bazaar of the web, where merchants call and sing
Not every voice should echo loud, not every bell should ring
Five seconds for the dance to play, then silence must be found
Unless the movement tells the tale where stillness has no ground
Remember well this number dear: two point two point two
The path to digital peace starts when control returns to you
