Born in Washington DC and raised in Maryland, Raef has shared his music with faith-based communities across the world. In the early 2000s, he sang tenor in a college a cappella group and played his acoustic guitar at local coffee shops. Raef was introduced to the national stage after his trio rock-band "Great Seneca" toured the United States as part of the "Voices for Change" initiative. Shortly afterwards, Raef joined the "Poetic Vision Tour" - a band of traveling musicians and poets dedicated to inspiring a spiritual and cultural renewal. More recently, Raef started working with Awakening Records and in 2014 released his debut album "The Path" , a collection of songs that reflects his identity as an American Muslim and his journey throughout the years.

Man In The Mirror Lyrics
I'm going to make a change,
For once in my life....
It's going to feel real good,
Going to make a difference
Going to make it right!
As I, turn up the collar on
My favorite winter coat
This wind is blowing my mind
I see the kids in the street
With not enough to eat
Who am I to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs...
A summer disregard,a broken bottle top
And a one man soul
They follow each other on the wind you'll know
Because they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know!
I'm starting with the man in the mirror!
I'm asking him to change his ways!
And no message could have been any clearer!
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change!
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize...
There are some with no home, not a nickel to loan!
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?
A willow deeply scarred...somebody's broken heart
And washed-out dreams
They follow the pattern of the wind you'll see
Because they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me!
I'm starting with the man in the mirror!
I'm asking him to change his ways!
And no message could have been any clearer!
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change!
I'm going to make a change....for once in my....life.
