When Your Destiny Meets Determination

When Destiny Meets Determination

Tell me your destiny
Tell me who you're meant to be
Are you really determined 
Everything in life 
Have you really earned it 
Tell me your dreams
And how they can be filled
Lets start with ourselves
Keeping it real
Acknowledging we all make mistakes 
But I'm determined 
To provide food on my plate
Not burgers but steaks 
This can be great, who i want to be  is me
In  a world , that looks at me than just a girl , i symbolize a pearl
So pure and white 
So elegantly made 
I am phenomenal, that i wouldn't trade 
When my destiny starts to look bright
Like a light, then its time to take new flights , to new heights, in life
But taking new heights 
Comes with a sacrifice 
Cant take an elevator
Have to climb the steps
No longer the easy way out
We all need help
To feel success, even at our lowest points 
God sees our best
Ill confess without hesitation
This is what happens 
When your destiny meets your determination
