My soul will not be broken/seeds of a dream.

My soul will not be broken/seeds of a dream.

Cracked and broken,

Dreams scattered by the waves

Sun-baked, soaked in rain.

But my soul cannot be broken

Steadfast in prayers, I will not waive

Unaffected by the elements, my spirit reign.

I will push on, fighting to remain sane.

In a world where the outcome of my life,

Is someone’s favorite game.

For I am as coarse and stubborn as my hair.

Bold and beautiful is my skin.

And in my veins run the dreams of men who only dreamt of freedom.

My soul will not be broken.

It is a seed of a dream.

A dream of freedom.

A dream of equality.

A dream of love.
