I rarely listened to Spotify for the time being. Ever since I stopped subscribing to its Premium plan, I am no longer able to listen to it offline while running, on the road etc. Trying to save a bit, I don't want to sacrifice my data on musics.
And I can say, I am always on the road since I returned home for good - to the north, south, east, west. Just Sabah Sarawak I haven't step my feet yet. *laughatmyself*
While in the car, Mak always remind all of us to pray, "dah baca doa belum?" Haha I don't understand why, every time I drive the car on my own, automatically I will recite the prayer - on my own. But, when ever I am with Mak, I only remember to recite it after she reminded me to.
Manusia pelupa T_T
To prevent sleepiness, I listened to radio - it depends on which signal the car received, I have no specific favourite fm. As I struggled to listen to Klasik Nasional when ever my dad is driving, I hope he does not mind with fly.fm, hitz.fm, era.fm etc. Hahahaha.
One lovely song I love to focus my ears to every time it goes on air is this - Bismillah by Ikhwan Fatanna. It was released for quite some time, but me being me, I am not that up-to-date with new songs.
LIRIK:
Ada yang sedang berjalan
Ada yang sedang berjalan
Ada yang sedang berlayar
Ada yang juga di angkasa
Ada yang baru belajar
Ada tengah temuduga
Ada yang bosan dengan kerja
Tak kisah kita di mana
Kita mula dengan nama kebesaran-Nya
Chorus:
Bismillah...
Walau sekecil mana kita langkah
Bismillah...
Walau dunia sering bermasalah
Bismillah..
Usaha dan doa usahlah lupa
Sebutkanlah bismillah
Sebutkanlah bismillah
Sebutkanlah bismillah
Bila kita menyebut nama-Nya
Nawaitu jahat pun jadikan kita
serba salah
Bila kita menyebut nama-Nya
Semoga yang dilaksana
semuanya terjaga
Tak kisah kita di mana
Kita mula dengan nama kebesaran-Nya
Chorus
Tidakkah kita percaya
Dengan hikmah yang ada pada-Nya
Sempurnakanlah
segala hela nafas yang ku hembuskan
Setiap amalku
Hanyalah untuk-Mu
Chorus 2x

Such a simple song with good messages.
And catchy beat too, don't you think so?
Humans need reminders, no matter how simple the reminders are.
As simple as bismillah at the beginning of anything we do.
Why?
It changes the values of the activities we do.
Bila kita menyebut nama-Nya
Nawaitu jahat pun jadikan kita serba salah
Bila kita menyebut nama-Nya
Semoga yang dilaksana semuanya terjaga
As simple as bismillah, it can protect us from going deeper into bad stuffs.
As simple as bismillah, it can help to prevent us from nonsense thoughts.
As simple as bismillah, it can help us to focus.
But, I think it depends on our lifestyle too - to see how the word bismillah can affect our life as a whole. When we expose ourselves with bad environment continuously, we become insensitive towards it. We no longer feel that activities are not good.
May Allah protect us from evil and devils.
