S O S

S O S I’m telling you something, this have got to end It’s not going back to the way it’s been Can’t buy food and short on the rent Not running to your house to cry and lament It has got to change, I declare it now I’m a vessel of God, bought by his blood Yes, royalty now, with a divine plan Move outta my way, I’m walking this land Rearranging the furniture in my mind It’s the season of overcoming, opening the blinds I know for sure the enemy can’t win Even with the abuse, I’m God’s princess within I’m waving this flag, in your face devil Taking a stand, never surrendering to your plans You may have taken the generations before me Be assured, there is an over comer in me Watch me now as I take my place Leaving the ruins behind, I elevate in “this” place With combat boots or maybe some stilettos on I’m all new, redeemed by the blood The season in my life has changed for sure No, I’m not the girl you met before I declare new things, from this moment forth By the power within- I’ve kicked down the door In case you are wondering who I think I am Let me introduce myself to the accusers at hand Making it clear for you to understand I’m a Serious Overcoming Sista, and I’m taking a stand !!!
