I Promised Mom

I promised my mom to study hard, Even if it means being an absurd, I don't want her to walk in the mud, I want to see her happy 'n' not sad, I will not rest until I wear that gown. Born in a village 'n' not a town, Am always looking up not down, Coz my God will never let me down, In the middle of sea I'll never drown, I will not rest until I wear that gown. In every challenge God offers a spire, I'll not give up, I will aim even higher, Even gold goes through furnace fire, All I have is Biblical stories to inspire, I will not rest until I wear that gown. © Kelmwa
