Facing Greatness

I walk in the light n cast uh shadow I might…fight through the rain just to gain sight my flight is delayed as I develop into the ace of spades I made progress, but only 2 barricade  from the world I hurled as the world swirled n tossed n turned then burned yet I learned from the mistake to quake the world n shake the heavens as my blue print is laid out I played out how to sweep my mistakes n raise the stakes as God views my destiny n graces the rest of me the best of me is out in the light to be seen n judged I nudged my conscience to make sure I’m still grounded as I float to the top I drop all the weight then I stop n think of my plan at hand I land where I have room for my wing span I can say that I’m ready to rise to the occasion and crumble the past under me like uh Haitian…
