On inspection, Muslims realized the lyrics were taken from verses 32-34 of the 78th chapter in the Quran.
The track, which went viral on the internet, offended many Muslims, who consider it blasphemous to use the Quran for purposes other than the worship and remembrance of God.
YG Entertainment, the firm responsible for producing the track, said that they were willing to delete the segment.
