He captivated the students of the “construction school” with freestyle – he began the meeting with rap improvisations about the school. The foresters showed a sense of humor about themselves – they took being called “scouts” in good humor.
With every minute, the meeting gained momentum and became increasingly absorbing. The day’s protagonist rapped on further topics suggested by the students (e.g. about… shoes), and also talked about his childhood, family problems, addiction to drugs and alcohol, and finally about the power of brotherly love, which helped him rise from the impasse.
Arkadio emphasized that the dominant feeling in his early youth was fear, whereas now he finally feels free. The road to this state was rough, but thanks to his brother and finding support in God (and His human messengers), it became possible to travel.
The words of several of Arkadio’s songs certainly stayed in the memory of everyone gathered, including: “But that is the worst disease, brother” (the tendency to make excuses closes many paths to people) and “You are free, you can do whatever you want!”
As an example of a person who overcame physical limitations, the musician mentioned Nick Vujicic, a motivational speaker who fulfills his dreams despite having no arms or legs. The world has no limits for him.
The students left the meeting moved and satisfied. “It was time well spent, for which we thank the initiator and main organizer of the concert, Father Artur Kotrys,” said the teachers of the Bolesławiec Construction School Complex.
