Have you ever experience times when you are pursuing a goal it seems circumstances and people at times question your motive/ambition/desire to achieve that goal? It's like they are telling you to stay in your place, don't aim or try to achieve something greater or more than you are. When that happens you want to "speak back to them" and say, no I will not... I will dare to dream, achieve and hope...
STAY IN YOUR PLACE By: Karen L. McFarlane They keep telling me to Stay in my place I’ve heard it so much That I have begun to Voluntarily stay in that place They say is mine Give me an opportunity To show who I know I can be No… they said Stay in your place The place we assigned you I have something to say Let my voice be heard No… they said Who you… what can you say No… oh no… stay in your place I am left to ponder… What is this place I am assigned A place of limits A place that confines Me to be less than me The true me The real me The epitomized me A place where all men should be Free …just to be… and do all For which they are placed on earth So I must remove The limitations of that place That even I began To be self-confined And emancipate my mind From staying in that place Of retardation, bondage Suppression… regression No freedom of expression Of the blossoming me So no… I will not *“stay in your place*” For it is yours… not mine!
