well kid , i tell you
life ‘ain’t been no cat cafe
it’s worn down
deprived of joy
fee will is an illusion
chained down by the faces of racism
well kid let me tell you
life ‘ain’t been no lollipop
some judging
others ignoring
But I’ve been hanging on
powered by determination
each second brings me closer to the top
even when i’m bruised
i keep hanging on
so don’t give up yet
even if life has been worn down
even if its crumbling under pressure
don’t give up
even in poverty
even in pain
you can make it
even if life aint been no cat cafe

I am from a quiet landscape
(some times loud)
I am from the middle east

I am from say it until you believe it
and we will work it out
I am from aunts and uncles everywhere
I believe it all ready
I’m powerful and the greatest.
Dear leaders ,
climate change lost us ,
sorry , sorry make things good happen in the world.
sorry we didn’t help ,
but we listened to talk ,
to guarantee nothing ,
forgive us ,
now our special earth ,
is gone
It’s hard to think hard to focus
while we mite be bullied, we will always be together
we put are hands up even when were down
making friends brighter and greater
altogether we will fix this school our
way forever
I am from the Caledonian line
from my teddy lion to my cute dog
I am from funny to generous
I am from my little dog
my best friend and the cutest dog ever
I am from the rustling to the bustling
gammon to fry up
I am from making a snow man bigger than me
I am from bark
and who let the dogs out
now
I am still from up north
from dog hair covered cloths

It’s hard to hope hard to cope ,
With a crises on hand ,
What will we do ,
We bend and twist but we don’t fall apart ,
Some where or another ,
A teacher works ,
Whilst , the other learns ,
It’s hard to hope with covid in the way ,
We stay stuck together for protection ,
Don’t let in securities get to you
You are perfect the way you are .
I am from a house sandwiched between the others

I am from Somalia that will never change
I am from Somalia that will never change

Well kid let me tell you
its hard to make friends and hard to keep them

its hard to cope while we might be alone we,ve never
been more strong because we will only weather
this together so we get to
work we mend we don’t break even
when we bend somewhere ,another time
somewhere another place
we are the best making our friendship

world we becoming of thoughs so there to come

a lot more of mission accomplished
So what I’m sayin’ is
never give up

I am from the towering tower blocks
From ocean waves and Cally bridge

I am from the deserts of Kurdistan
Fish and chips, rice and chicken
I am from meeting new people
I am from maybe next time
And when i grow up
Even now,
I am from the beach
From ocean waves and Cally bridge
I am UNIQUE.

I am from a very small village
with coconut rice and chicken
I am from a runaway father
i am from the word brang
I am from a my local shop
I am from many things
like my very small village
or using my imagination
i am from the loud noisey streets
i am from the blocks and shops
