why give up now
you are not yet beaten
why throw your life away
and banish your dreams
why destroying yourself with booze
dont give up
this journey is too long
dont cry
the dream is still alive
stop the conflict
stop the misinterpretation
wake up
rise
for the glory is about to fall upon you
dont give up
fight
for the victory is near
dont give up
you are destined to fly
dont give up
you are not all alone
we love you

I might be nobody
but tommorow is mine
i might not know where i come from
but i know where i want to be
just listen
i had it all
been there, done that
now its time for me to be heared
to stand for myself
to dry my eyes
to fill the hole that is inside my heart
to forgive and forget
the time has come
to discover my own
so just listen
i am more than what i made off
i dont believe in you
i have been in hell and back
no more crying
i swept all my tears
i found myself
just listen
i`ve been talked about
pushed around
lost myself
i am stronger now
wiser now
older now
and i embrace myself for the hurt

I dont need a gun
to escape poverty
i dont need to be sucidal
to escape life
i dont need to be a prostitude
to perceive myself personable
I dont need to point fingers
In everything going astray in my life
i dont need to take drugs
to hide from reality
i dont need to be aggresive
to feed my bitterness
I dont need to be ignorant
to spoon feed my worryness
i dont need a mask
to cover my scars
i dont need to compromise myself
to fit in my peers

I gave you my all
you gave me bruises
i kept turning and tossing
while you busy with booze
I told you someone is conceived
you vanished
i gave birth
you didnt care
i left
you felt humiliated
never thought i could grow weary someday

I am a black woman
a true reflection of omama wami
i am who i am
I am a lady
who fights on what she believes in
i am a hardcore
i am a conquerer
i am more than what i made off
i am a rock
i crumble,stumble and fumble
i am stronger
harder than i am
I am black woman
i make mistakes and learn
i am beautiful in my own way
i am intelligent in my own way
i am special
i am a trophy
i treasure myself and ubuntu bam
and i am expressive
