Heads Up!

Heads Up!
Well , well, well, There she is
Lady of her own, Shaken – not broken
Standing, even if its on a limp foot
Smiling in spite of the thorn in her side
Real because she lives, She has survived
Life didn’t finish her , She lives
Love failed her, but she still resists the disappointment
The temptation to fold over , and give up

Purpose drives her, love inspires her
And dispite life’s toll
She exsists, pursists, loves, lives
She may be you, She may be me…true
Woman you are strong, and someone needs you to survive, Phambili!
It’s the only way
One love, One chance, One live
To inspire, to change, to motivate and to make great, an exsistence

To the dry soil that gave birth to us, to the storms that shoke us
And the meteors that tried to smoother us
We are stronger, refined and wise round about now
So like a cowering dog with its tail between its legs
Negativity be gone, sadness you have no home here
And your memory is buried so deep within the foundations of our dreams of empires
that your snout could never imagine to see that light
She is taking hold now…

Woman take hold of what is yours
Your dreams, your life, your pride and self worth
You are a Queen, a survivor, an inspiration
Heads Up fellas ..this one is a keeper
