Our Rights, Our Freedom Always by Jacquline Kamwamu & Adam Anthony
Because I’m only human,
I want to grow up,
I want to grow up regarded as free,
Free to think and express opnions without fearing torture or detention,
And I don’t want to be a slave, all I want is to be free.
We are all born equal, you, me and everyone,
Our rights are not limited here, they apply everywhere,
Because we also have a right to free movement,
No one can take our rights away, they are protected by the law.
My life is only meaningful when my rights are respected,
The right to live and to be protected,
To enjoy the right to education and right to basic needs,
To freely vote and vote and to be voted in the elections,
I’ve a right to my privacy, marriage and family,
And I have all these for free, my rights are not for sale.
