Resilience

In tough times steel bends and humans don't. Even through exploitation, on their feet they'll land.


They shall stay focused and never betray their dreams for a couple of grands...


They shall be the EXAMPLE on which next generations build on and stand.


But true liberation WONT come with a flick of a magic wand.


It won't come by inventing a brand the mind has to expand.


Mate, them ambitious dreams must keep you awake like an 80s rock band.


Against the odds like upstream against a current.


My people always up against a giant but we still tower,

like the Vietnamese guerrillas who humiliated a superpower.


If concrete could produce a flower? then challenges are like a bag of Zoot on Saturday with the bros.. ready to be devoured.


Trust your ambition, like how the folks trusted 50s television,


be persistent like a salesman working on commission .


My old man told me life is a war of attrition so don't let yourself bleed for someone else's vision..


Work towards what you envision, like wise man with intuition.


Focused like snipers precision and know that comparing yourself to others is useless like those UN peace keeping missions..


lf money buys happiness then why are so called celebrities and people in "high positions", drowning in rivers of sorrow, pain and suspicion?


Giving up on your ambitions is as outrageous as Trump's sedition .


And remember not to side with those who foster division.


Because silence in face of injustice is more painful than an anaesthesia free incision.


and regardless of socio-political barriers, Be a movement that craves no ones recognition


and don't forget that In your minds, not pockets is your fruition.
