One day I will break free
GIDRAF MWANGI 1992 (Murang'a)
One day I will stop crawling like a worm
In the shit dump of my life
Break free from the cocoon of misery
And be reborn, beautiful as a butterfly
One day I will stop fearing the heights of failure
Stop flapping in vain against adversity
And like an eagle, my wings will grow
And I will soar high into the sky...free
One day, like a young turtle
I will break out of the sands of doom
Run, though without legs
And reach the sea of success
One day!
