Samia

Running down the road
I felt the freedom
Running down the road
Few steps away from me
Running down the road
My strong determination
Running down the road
Made my perception fly away
I touched my dreams and fly away

She had grown up and trained in a city
Facing a war, poverty and atrocities
She faced death threats and intimidation
Prejudice of some people of the nation
She ran day after day
Almost without of food of water
Her legs took her there
Over and beyond the horizon

We try our best to look like the rest
But we understand we are nowhere
But more than anything else
We would like to show
To the rest of the world
Our dignity and capability
Our dignity and capability

Nearly a year of travel
She was so fragile
Crossing the desert and dangerous places
She overcame inhuman conditions
She aimed to go to the competition
She took a freedom boat
They sailed until the gas was gone
They were lost in the middle of the sea
And she decided to jump

Running down the road
I felt the freedom
Running down the road
Few steps away from me
Running down the road
My strong determination
Running down the road
Made my perception fly away
I touched my dreams and fly away
Fly away

I would do it
That's why I decided to jump
I would do it
But I didn't catch the ropes
I would do it
I felt the love of a hug
Of my mother who was not there
Who was not there
