Herald Poems: Sons of Nobody

You can read all my poems here.

To some they are born somebody
To others they are born nobody

We are seen as useless because we are nobody
unhappy are we because we are seen as nobody
We are been marginalized because we are nobody

We don’t have freedom of speech because we are nobody
We are seen as inferior because we are nobody

In our nobody status we will keeping fighting for our rights
In our nobody status we keep rising 
Every time they pull us down

We keep fighting as nobody to be somebody someday
As nobody we will never give up on our dreams
As nobody we will conquer our obstacles
From sons of nobody we will be called sons of somebody 
Because we have overcome our obstacles.
