My voice

My voice moves in diffrent tongues
My voice sings redemption songs
My voice suppresses segregation and arises integration

My voice speaks for minorities with no voice of their own
Speaks for the child living in the street with no hope of tommorow

My voice speaks for the women robbed out of their beauty girls robbed out of their virginity

My voice speaks for the victims of rape

Like thunder my voice strikes rain is coming to wash away my sorrows when the rain stops

My adrenaline seems to start from scratch

Like thunder my voice lightens
The sound so great it breaks the negatives
Breaks the clouds
And clears the skies

My voices dances in diffrent rhythms
My voice is my pride
Moves in
Diffrent tongues

My voice climbs high mountains of excitement
My voice speak of justice
