Evening Falls On Lukwangulo

I'm gon' light up the world

Like a thunder ball

This lil' smile of mine

I'm gon' let it shine

Like I don't care about war

Or don't give 'bout the desolation

That racks my private corner

I ain't withering like wet paper

I am not the victim

I am the killer

I'm staying positive

Traversing the bitter

To so much better

I'm gon' shine my smile

And light up the sky

I'm gon' lift my eyes

And soar like a kite

I am not the victim

I wrote the verdict

I am the killer

I am not a squealer

I won't bow to hopelessness

Ama take my somebodyness

And bulldoze a path

To a brand new start.
