When they thought we didn't learn.

With hope filled hearts we made our way here.

We settled and made a home away from ours. 

Made friends, formed families and most of us never lost the vision.

We never lost the intelligence to reason so we couldn’t understand.

How! How we came and learned before we made the affiliations.

How we learned in our different capacities.

How you taught us that justice, and fairness are essential to decision making.

How you raised brows with your lectures of morality, dignity and integrity.

How you expanded our reasoning in calculating complexities so as to come to logical and probable conclusions.

How empathy and the best interest of the child was so much in your preaching yet you mock us now.

You attempt to

You tied us with your bandage of oppression

Apprehend us with your cuffs of silence.

Being Deep under the spell of corruption

You destroy the opportunity at life we have here today

You gobble the resources and

And burn the funds in your making merry.

By virtue of your regulations you cut out our tongues one by one.

You attempt to muffle the voices of our rebellion.

You stab the heart of our revolution

Dismantle the assembly of our association

But not today.

Not in a world where the pioneers of the moral standard have laid precedent.

When stories of the conquered liberation where told to us in the evolution of our generation.

When you have read us the book of rights and told us to live by those principles.

We refuse to be mentally incarcerated in prisons to fill your illicit fueled advancement

 Even if you place the condition of infinity on the duration of your plight.

We shall not bow.

In protest and advocacy we’ll fight for our peace.

We’ll be the thorn in your foot.

The disturbance to your tranquil.

For we belong to the free world.

We are the children of struggles.

Guardians of the woke lands.

The bud of seeds planted in rough and dry soil.

The light at the end of the tunnel has long been shown to us.

We’ve been told The Eden of our struggles has promised our welcome.

So be informed…

The reach of the effort in our quest

Is if need be

Until kingdom come.
