Vote of Thanks
When we all come together on days like this
To reminisce on the far that we've come
We ought to be grateful that we here like this
And grateful for the people that we've become
Cause when I was just but seven years
I thought that it was just me and my brother
Against this battle that is haemophilia and for years
I'd not met anyone who'd gone through a lot like me and my brother
But we never felt any different from others
We'd go to the same school as any other
And even though our condition to others
Was like a myth, we felt pain like any other
But with time being in hospital and being a wonder
My file got to be noticed and through my mum's contact
Slowly we'd get to hear that there were others like us, we weren't a wonder
We were just bits of a bigger beautiful picture, and we played a big part
So to the days that I stand here and wave
Giving messages of hope with my words
I'm grateful for all the mercies God gave
To everyone who made this possible, plus all who listened to my words
