I remind myself that
a dream deferred is not a dream denied
all this stress...yeah I wear it like a versace dress
south of here is battle raging oh yeah
survival of the fittest wins
one foot in and one foot out

I'm shaking all about
pregnant with so much life
so many living to kill my light
they fear...no they are terrified
how bright it is shining day and night
damn fools tripping
surrounding to enable to disable me baby
I'm free nobody needs to die
ask me why

I blink back the tears
so nobody sees me cry
if you only knew the pain dancing inside
I know and understand that I wrestle
not against flesh and blood
but against principalities,
spiritual wickedness in high places,
the battle of the ages, races, smiling faces,
whispers in dark places

My dream,
my art that's my life,
my existence
oh yes my dignity of assistance
will not be denied
I will do better than just get by,
gotta go
watch me fly and kiss the sky
