This Is My Time!

My destiny..? is preordained & wont be denied No matter how many times I fail, I gots to keep on trying! I know...pressure can bust a pipe, but it also can make a diamond. Enduring lifes' atrocities...gots me striving & shining. Shining..?, only to be the best...that I truely can be. Some talked down...some hated...but mostly?, they disbelieved! As if I couldn't dream, & turn those dreams into a reality. A man strenght can only be measured, if he over comes his adversities! Over achiever?, yes!, cuz luck doesn't apply to me. Becuz, I could've been a Bookie!, who was eradicated by life complacncies! Wasn't me, so I chose another path. But, in order to embrace my future?, I most 1st know my past. The past of hurt!, destruction!, & drugs! Some one tell me why?, when black men get money we profess to be thugs! Entities..? with out a cause, loving just to momentarily ball! But, with no stability, it's a long , detrimental, & inevitable fall! Acrophobia..?, we'll die before we hit ground! Reflecting on our short comings, only to realize we were the ulimate clown! Asking God to bless me, so I might be a blessing. Can't forget where I come from, learning from my trials & tribulations. Gotta be different!, choose a route that's never been chose. Can't be of this world, yearning for snatch, cars, & clothes. But, the road of knowledge, cuz I desire to win! & sleeping on my dreams?, will be the climax of all my mortal sins! Introspection...looking deep, only to see the real picture. Praying to God as I take that 1st step, cuz I refuse to be a wisher. Cuz, man might not get all that he pays for in life, but he must pay for all that he gets. & knowing that life don't give a squat about a brother, motivates my spirit! Motivation, desire, & plus with a dream. knowing i'll over come:, gots me feeling like Malcom Little & Dr. Martin Luther King! Becuz, it's mind over matter & if I don't mine, it shol doesn't matter. Have you ever seen a brother come from nothing, make something, & climb his way all the way up that tiresome ladder? Well, it's a 1st time for every thing, & my gift..?, is truely my mind! I'm claiming 2008, mark my words...This is My Time!!!
