Free man

I long to see the daylight,

The beautiful sunrise,

Cos forever in the dark I am cast,

Though they the say to us that,

We are born to serve,

And they are born to rule,

I long for the waves,

And all I get is whips,

I long to hear the birds sing,

And all I get is to watch my brothers cry,

To my oppressors,

I prefer a dangerous freedom,

Over a peaceful slavery.

We were born free,

And free I will be,

I long to fly over skies,

I long to chant freedom,

I long to be called freeman,

For my root; I do not know,

Our traditions and culture; I have forgotten,

I long to be proud of my identity,

I long to have friends and family,

I long to have a job,

I long to be happy,

I long to feel safe,

I long…to be free
