To the world, we live in
I was born free, so let me be freedom.
In a world beyond recognition
I was born with sight, so let me witness change.
To the world stained with bloodshed
I was born human, so let the only blood I see be that running through my veins.
To a world divided by xenophobia
I was born as African as my tribesmen, so let me remain unclassified.
To the world feasting on dictatorship
I was born aware, so allow me to re-educate you on democracy.
To the world demonized by social media
I was born enlightened, so let my wisdom click into authenticity.
To a world governed by sexism
I was born in this form, so let my soul define its purpose, not its gender.
