gawdd

shish...

sometimes i feel like ive abandoned where im from.
zim town, sometimes i feel like ive never truly know where i was born what makes me part of who i am

this great continent
this amazing country


it's crazy, how you turn on the news and dont hear anything about what's going on there.You know what their doing in United Kingdom, Tokyo, and Sri Lanka...
but Africa?
nothing...

& when you do see anything it's horiffic but at the same time you cant help but want to go back
live it, breath it,
while you watch them through the tv screen you feel their strength while their body's look weak & you cant help but to notice their hearts are filled with joy

i want to go back..it's my duty


i feel like it's my home,i feel like
the world is my home


so why am i so quick to shout
EAST POINT!
and now ZIMBABWE!




because im ashamed, im ashamed of wanting to tell others about it but truly not knowing myself,
im ashamed of not being able to tell them the stereotypes are not true with no doubt in my mind

i need to know where ive been, i need to know who i am...

i shall return, one day
