Acknowledge

Art of GOD, land of gold Africa is you.
Mother of the nations, source of inspirations;
To poets and songster inception of every single line of their lyrics
They pinch on their paper. East west they never get a rest
Of trying to figure out your inner mystery but it has been a test
For them because it is intangible like a vapor.

Many had underestimated your ability,
Their mind is full of ambiguity, but loving yourself
Being yourself will make you shine amongst those who never believed in your audacity,
I know they will switch on green light for equality.
Your self-reliance will make you an alliance without paying an indulgence.

I can see,
An independent Africa that will be seeing challenge dead in the eye
And gives it a wink instead of writing down batch of papers wasting an ink
Begging for help, betting her future generations as a deed of trust in the banks
That doesn’t take a week but I know you are not weak, I can’t say that this is your time
Because it has been always your time.

I can tell,
You are strong if you didn’t know, you are beautiful, if no one ever told you
Your strength is innate, you don’t need any gym to shape it, you don’t need anybody
To define it. All you need is to claim, own and acknowledge it
You are strong than you know.
