(I am from slavery.
I am from blood, sweat, and tears.
I am from fear of acceptance.
In the darkness I won’t appear.

I am from survival.
I am from struggle.
I am from pride.
I have the strength to survive.
I am from change.
I am from faith and hope.
I am from prayer.
God won’t put more on me than I can bare.

I am from success.
I am from determination.
I am from the future.
I will reach the highest peek.
)
