I Wanna

I Wanna 
				
dance like ciara
sing like beyonce
write like maya
and hit like shakira
My Talent

 I Wanna
 I wanna
glow like gabrielle
fight like rosa
believe like martin
& lead like obama
our black power
I Do 

I wanna invent 
I wanna be bold
I wanna be new 
Something that’s so strong 
But also not so old
I wanna work my style
brighten my flaws
I wanna be me 
IS THAT SO HARD


I wanna be an inspiration
A sinsation
To thee new generation
I just wanna be that person they can come to 
To have a decent conversation
Without any hesitation
    I Wanna 

I wanna be black
I wanna be bold
i wanna be unique
I don't wanna be old

  I wanna
I be new 
Something thats so true 
I wanna be someone
That likes to help you

I wanna put a smile on there face
THe biggest one yet

I wanna fulfill their hearts
Something without no regrets

I wanna fit in like an puzzle
Without all that struggle
I wanna touch someones heart
Without all that hustle

I wanna become something big
I wish to take my family up
Just like any other kid

  Now i wanna
Bow my head beneath my feet
I pray to my lord to become so unique
Bring me faith and let it stay 
I pray thee lord to just lead the way
