"Salvation" focuses on the age-old adage that true happiness isn't found in material things but rather on looking inward and reconnecting with Allah (SWT).

We chase these illusions, thinking they'll fill the void in our hearts and minds. But true fulfilment comes when we turn our hearts towards Allah (SWT), focus on remembering Him in this life and preparing for the next, that's when we find true peace and ultimately, salvation.

The video for Salvation takes one on a spectacular journey of moments that symbolise these fleeting distractions. Using digital mastery, the video is a fluid synergy of place,
sound and movement where nothing remains stagnant and the chasing can sometimes lead to innocuous findings – just like the things we chase in this world.

Lyrics
Salvation feat. Muslim Belal (Ashley Belal Chin)

Growing up where I’m from, you have this social housing mentality
council estate mentality you don’t see a world outside your world, and this is damaging.
I learnt so much from travelling. I changed so much after travelling, opened my mind, changed my character. You should live like the birds, I live like a traveller

I was sitting on my own
In my beautiful home
Lots of people all around but I felt so alone
I thought I had everything
All the dreams that I had dreamed
But the cleansing of a heart and soul
Don’t come with material things
So I went to Istanbul
To the hammam of the sultan
The purest water they brought in
To wash away my sins
But before the clay had dried
My guilt had multiplied
And despite how hard they tried
I felt worse than when I walked in
Oh my Lord I need Salvation
Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness
My minds going crazy and I feel so lost
Cos I can’t get through to you
So I flew to Dubai
Everything that money can buy
But faith ain’t such a fickle thing
That glitters like gold outside
So I went to the USA
They say the land of the free and the brave
But freedom don’t mean anything
When your heart ain’t free within
Oh my Lord I need Salvation
Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness
My minds going crazy and I feel so lost
Cos I can’t get through to you
I thought maybe Asia
To beautiful Malaysia
The people there were oh so nice
I thought maybe I could stay here
But I needed some rest
So I went to Budapest
I ate and ate cos I was hungry
But my soul was still restless
Oh my Lord I need Salvation
Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness
My minds going crazy and I feel so lost
Cos I can’t get through to you
I thought I’d go back to my roots
Put on those village boots
To a small town deep in India
Where my great grandparents stood
I looked for someone I knew
Something for me to do
They said you look familiar son
But there’s nothing here for you
Oh my Lord I need Salvation
Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness
My minds going crazy and I feel so lost
Cos I can’t get through to You

From London to Egypt Cairo, got my weapon everywhere that I go
Was a gun that could take away life, now it’s on my tongue, this Quran I recite
I had breakfast in Casablanca, now I’m back on this road again
like a journeyman, on this horse I ride, until the day my journey ends
I’m just a traveller, traveller, traveller on these lands
Allah blessed me in so many ways, none of this was ever in my plans
Cos I was a young boy, young boy, walking a lonely road
from street to street, they say my life is my journey home

Oh my Lord I found Salvation
A piece of peace and so much happiness
My mind was crazy and I felt so lost
But now I’m close to you
So back to my homeland
Back to where it all began
Same old faces and same old places
But I felt a change at hand
From Panama to Japan
New Zealand to Vietnam
He’s closer than your own jugular vein
Just call out Allah’s name
Where do you go to find God
It actually ain’t that hard
He’s always with you, wherever you are
Just remember Him in your heart
Oh my Lord I found Salvation
A piece of peace and so much happiness
My mind was crazy and I felt so lost
But now i’m close to you
Trinkets and clothes and gold treasure troves
They don’t mean nothing if your heart stays closed
Only remembering brings you close, to Him
Remember

Trinkets and clothes and gold treasure troves
They don’t mean nothing if your heart stays closed
Only remembering brings you close, to Him
Trinkets and clothes and gold treasure troves
They don’t mean nothing if your heart stays closed
Only remembering brings you close, to Him
Brings you close to Him
