Mandela's Mantra
Mandela's Mantra
I am a Note. I am Harmony.
I am a Vote. I am a President.
I am a felon. I am famous.
I am aware.
I am that, I am.
I am genesis. I am genius.
I am consciousness. I am unstoppable.
I am reason. I am resilience.
I am Africa.
I am a Soul. I am Resonating.
I am a smile. I am a force.
I am confident. I am character.
I am aware that controlling systems do not control me.
I am that, I am.
I am a lotus. I am a lily.
I am a lion. I am a llama.
I am sand. I am the season's solstice.
I am Africa.
I am prosperous. I am persistence.
I am reason. I am the voice from within.
I am vibration. I am forgiveness. I am love.
I am aware that I cannot let others define me.
I am that, I am.
I am in service to the human race.
I am achieving my dream even after disgrace.
I am a positive impact.
I am aware.
I am that, I am.
