I close my eyes
But I still see
The future in disguise
And what I want to be
Laying ahead out of sight
But as to embark on this journey
I press hard my might
A sure wonder to my destiny
And as I begin to take the pace
I acquire knowledge on a hard stool
And now life as it is in this place
A mere prison branded as school
Beginning as a slave
Working all round the little world
With literally no time to save
But dare not utter a word
Our prescribed clothing, the thin linen sheets
The empty boxes we open everyday
This is just to escape the streets
And to the future, here is the only way
The Only Way
