Destined


Pushed Down

In a rut

But Tupac told me

Keep my head up.

 

Obstacles, hurdles

Twist and turns

Yes, indeed we live to learn.

 

I may fret, I may cry

But I will not deter from the path, that is

Beyond my visual eye.

 

Strength and Wisdom

We behold

As we strive for the greatness that has

Been bestowed.

 

So rise above the fray

Kings and Queens

We were destined for glory!

And must not let this life

Drown our stories.
