I feel...
I feel dead yet alive,
Walking yet standing,
I feel dead yet I see life around me,
Life that brings pain and numbness in the deep oceans of my heart,
Life that took my love and turned it into a weapon that kills the strong yet strengthens the weak,
I feel dead yet alive on the dark streets,
I search for power to live in the light and see the rising sun while standing on the streets of Soweto,
A home to many and more to come,
A pride to me and all those behind
I feel dead yet alive in search of power,
To hold in my hand and regain strength that I shall feel
