Description
yeah… ohh…
hmm… yeah…
this my story… listen…
i was born where the struggle don’t sleep, yeah
mama on the farm just to find what we eat, yeah
daddy in the sun, no rest, no pay
just another day tryna make a way
we were moving place to place, no control
war in the land, but i carried my soul
i was just a boy but i started to see
life ain’t easy where i’m from, believe me
but i told myself i won’t break… no
even when my heart feel low… yeah
even when the road feel slow…
i keep going… i keep going…
this is not the end… no no…
even when i bend… i don’t fold…
heavy is the load… i still go…
i still go… yeah
this is not the end… i know…
even in the dark… i see hope…
if you feel the pain… just hold on…
just hold on… yeah
school under trees, writing dreams in the sand
no books in my bag, just a slate in my hand
teachers did their best with the little they knew
that’s where i found something i could hold on to
sent away, thought life would change
but i felt more pain, yeah the love was strange
some nights no food, just silence and blame
came back home but i kept that flame
2015, i was stuck in place… yeah
no school, just tears on my face… yeah
but deep inside i heard a voice say…
“don’t stop… don’t stop…”
this is not the end… no no…
even when i bend… i don’t fold…
heavy is the load… i still go…
i still go… yeah
this is not the end… i know…
even in the dark… i see hope…
if you feel the pain… just hold on…
just hold on… yeah
refugee life, yeah bidibidi home
lost my way but i found my own
came back strong, had to face my fear
fell behind but i still stayed here
had to repeat, yeah i felt that shame
but i came back stronger, i changed the game
from 27 to number six
that’s what happens when you don’t quit
covid came, everything paused
but i stayed holding onto my cause
ple came, i made it through
division two, yeah i pushed on through
senior days got heavy inside
siblings sent home, i felt that cry
sometimes i paid theirs, left mine behind
that’s the love you don’t leave behind
this is not the end… no no…
even when i bend… i don’t fold…
heavy is the load… i still go…
i still go… yeah
love came early, yeah life got real
she was carrying more than we could deal
still went to school, didn’t run away
had a child on the way but we chose to stay
baby boy came, i named him joshua
deliverance came when i needed more
during exams i was under the weight
still found a way, had to relocate
after it all, she had to go
dowry not done, i was moving slow
left on my own but i stood my ground
even in silence, i made no sound
called my people, they got tired of me
some never answered,
