Lyrics
There are days in my life
When I feel like there is a knife
Stuck to my throat
I just can't breathe
The pain so agonizing
Never so brief
No matter how hard
I try to get relieve
I still find it hard
I feel trapped like eve
Somedays no matter how hard I try
To hold to my believe
In the dream I conceived
And for the world i'd love
To create for me When I was just five
But I look around I still want to grief
When those I looked up to
And hailed as elders turn to behave like beef
And the future, the told me I was
They have become its thieves
The promises they made to me
They fail to give
I feel like taking a dive
Building a hive
So, I can protect me
And just live my life
Sometimes
I just don't want to live
Most times
I just don't want to move.
I am tempted to give up
And end this strive.
For the thrive I toiled for
Seem so looked in a cave
But I hold on
A no be slave
A go continue for work
till I receive
All this bagandeh dem
A no go leave am make dem drive, me
A no be naïve.
The only way to achieve
Is to hold on to my believe
Continue to the strive
One day, my dream go come alive
Though you burn the bridges
You think I would use to my skies
You forget
You are helping me to develop wings
So you can fly to the stars
Though you burn my huts crafted
With a breath of my spirit, my sweat
I thank you
For now I see, the sky scrappers
So I can build better twice
I'll Dream
I'll Believe
I'll Think
I'll Work
And Achieve
Breathe Breathe
