That’s how I normally speak,
That’s how I was made to speak,
That’s how I will always speak,
That’s how I was trained to speak,
That’s how my grandma once spoke,
That’s how my grandpa once spoke,
That’s how my God wants me to speak,
That’s how my soul longs to speak.
I speak boldly and fearlessly,
I speak softly and politely,
I speak poetically at all times,
I speak poetically to the world,
I speak to echo what the Lord says,
I speak to market my poetic words,
I speak as guided by plain truth,
I speak as guided by words of wisdom,
I speak as guided by culture and tradition,
I speak to share great historical experiences,
I speak to share unforgettable testimonies,
I speak to express the wisdom within my soul.
I feel fulfilled whenever I speak poetically,
For poetry is my voice, my calling, and my way of life.
