I HAVE BEEN DREAMING

‎Camistare 2025

I have been dreaming dreams of liberation, 

‎I have been dreaming dreams of a paradigm shift 

In the mindsets of the citizens if my nation,

‎I have been dreaming dreams of a new revolution,

‎I have been dreaming dreams of the final liberation.

‎.

I have been dreaming dreams of a nation 

Built upon the inalienable rights and freedoms 

Enshrined in our constitution and not personalities, 

Tribal kingpins or regional party politics

‎I have been dreaming dreams against ethnic cleansing,

Ethnocentricity and negative ethnicity.

.

‎I have been dreaming against police bullets, 

Teargas canisters on these streets,

Tanks, water cannons, cruel baton in street protests,

I dream an end to the dogs and horses,

Police boots and violence

‎I have been dreaming dreams of peaceful co-existence.

.

I have been dreaming dreams of hope,

Dreams of a place where all lives matter, 

‎Dreams of the guaranteed security for people and all property, 

‎I have been dreaming dreams against ethnic bigotry, 

‎And all attempts that ethnicity that profile me.

‎ I still dream, I dream against tyranny and impunity

.

‎I have been dreaming dreams of justice,

‎dreams that remind me that peace, love and unity,

Exist where justice and true humanity are in abundance.

‎I dream of a better Kenya

And I will never stop dreaming or speaking

Come join me let us dream

I am still dreaming the Kenyan dream.
