I wish
I wish i had my own Choices
I wish i had a voice
I wish i had courage
I wish i never came to harmony
I wish i had a say so in my life
I wish i had Freedom
i wish i had a magic wand
to make all my wishes
come true.
The City of dreams ( Ballad)
"Momma where are we"
where in the city on dreams.
Left and right as people scatter
i sit a watch as i enjoy my flavored strawberry ice cream batter.
"Look at all the Lights" screamed Nahla
They dance on the building
Giving the city life
Only in the city of dreams
What a day, how fun
Lots of joy and more to come
By all means,I will return,
To the city of dreams.
Wondering.. ( free verse)
wondering why i'm still here..
Close my eyes
Imagine myself in a paradise high in the sky.
Why am i the blue bird stuck in the cage?
Hiding the pain and rage
behind the smile not even you can fake.
Wondering why i'm still here...
Sitting in the dark
Longing for freedom...
Eyes shut closed, shedding a single tear
Wondering why am i still here...
