Break The Chains
Break the chains
That has held you captive
The chains of ignorance
The chains of entitlement
The time is now!
Look into the mirror
What do you see?
That image you see
Holds the key
To your glorious destiny
Break the chains
That your light may shine
And lighten the world
In a most splendid way
That all will come to see it
Your father may be wealthy
But until you break the chain
And create your own world
You will still be ensnared
Sitting on a rocky chair
The road is rough
The journey is touch
But when challenges come
Please embrace them
Therefrom lies your tests
Before your testimonies
If you are ready
Burn your bridge
Come ride with me
To a world of possibilities
Wrapped in togas of challenges
That we may win together
No boxer gets a belt
Without a fight
No student gets promoted
Without writing exams
Yours is now
Embrace it
In the end
We will look back
Inspire our world
Telling tales by moonlight
Of how we blazed the trail
Because we were born prepared!
