Dreams

Kaone 2003 (North West)



I closed my eyes
Relaxed my body
Filled my brain with things
Things that breaks me
Things that tore my heart to pieces

Relaxed my brain,I see things
Beautiful things on how life is
How it is with happiness,with love
There is life outside
Outside the tragedy and misery

Houses are built, people greeting
each other with smiles
No pretenders, Africans reunite
Dream is a precious thing
Thing that is not scarce or rich

Respect changes the world
Loyalty changes your relationship
And death brings the worst
Have a dream and follow it.
