I too can



 

By: Wongani Mlanga 


Being a girl is not a barrier

I can do what he can do

I can reach where he can reach

And no one can stop me

Because l know l can



They fire words like bullets at me

Trying to mislead me

But l will still keep on going

Till I succeed in my life

And I’m sure I will make it



Yes l can become a doctor

Not just someone’s mother

I can make it and become an accountant

Not someone’s servant

So do not disturb me but help me to succeed

Because l have a right to do so



I can reach a lot of places

And help bring change to my country

Being a girl does not mean I’m a failure

Because I know I’m a warrior and l know l can make it
