THE LEGEND
NOVEMBER 11,2016
They say Education is the Key
Lucky Dube confirms The Love of Life is Contained in Education
These are the fruits of Hard working and Consistency
So many years of sleepless nights
There were a lot to be covered
I was low every time-I cried everyday
I suffered a lot-
My mother with the little she had
Almost succumbed to death
Supported me to the aorta
She had sleepless nights
I suffered a long way
Sleepless nights and years of begging
The Prayers which were almost dumped
The cries which unheard
I took humility and perseverance
I took foolishness in the eyes of people
Some with sarcasm, mockery
Some with rejection-
It was quite an experience
I am a legend
I died for something
I have achieved goals
Fulfilled dreams and a vision that has come to pass.
Love, hatrage, passion, compassion,
Hugh I experienced a lot
