"Destiny Calling"


Release these chains that hold me captive of my own mind. Release these shackles that is bringing me down straight to the ground. Release this feeling of defeat because I know, I just can not be beat. Success just keep calling but It seems to me, I can not make it there fast enough to answer. I'm caught up in a warfare deep down inside of me this internal battle is draining all of me. How long oh Lord, will these chains keep me from progression? God I just want my soul, mind, body, and spirit to just, be set free, free from all the sinful demons that is trying to torment me! Why is reaching success so darn hard? I guess because the devil hear what I hear so everytime she'll call, I tell her to leave a message at the beep. The more I felt defeat the more ambitions just grew stronger inside of me so when success called back again, I was no longer held down to the ground. I answer the phone and she said hello, it's Destiny.
