A Winning Performance

A winning performance Two years ago I won…. I accomplished and faced my greatest fear And I am here because my ambition wouldn't let me settle I am here because to many opportunities have passed me by and I just let them go I am here because if anyone I want myself to know I did it I can stand here with pride because of the inspiration within me I’ve showed destiny she is my enemy I've moved on to an opportunity greater than what my own eyes can understand And I also realize my future is in my hands I gave credibility to the labels like depression, fear, anxiety, and even more But those are the exact things I had to fight in this war It wasn't the color of my skin that made me insecure It wasn't lies that were told that discouraged my trust It was me I feel like Darkness is coming for me Wanting to room in his company for eternity But I'm just so so inspired I won't feel right if I let it get the best of me All my life I died again and again to understand who it is I will be And why is Destiny so territorial over me specifically You know I'm raised up in faith I'm raised in love Raised in peace Raised in inspiration Raised in ambition So I understand why Destiny and her friends are coming for me Because they envy the “better” I see in me I swear to this audience if I am the only one that hears I'll lose my faith before I walk in Fear, Death, Darkness, Destiny, Misery, With all due respect I will not sit in their company
