lyrics

I am a seven year old man
Giving all that I can
Providing for family
Parents left this land

My brothers and sisters
I promise to feed
A roof overhead
More than a clay floor for a bed
I will care for their needs

And I will make it through the day
Even if it’s for one more
I will make you proud of me
And our family
I am seven going on twenty-four

This merciless disease
Continues to break families
But our will is strong
No elements shake dignity

But as I speak to you openly
I’m tired and scared
I need some sign to show
To know that you’re above over me

This land has been dry for five years
It will be dry for five more
As long as I know you’re alive
In those endless skies
No night’s too dark for my light
I will survive
