In boundless realms, where thoughts collide/
A force emerges, unmatched in stride/
A single grain, a spark, a flame/
Perfection crowned by its own name/
Flawless, fierce, it dares to rise/
An awe struck wonder beneath the skies/
In defiance of limits, it carves its place/
A sovereign spirit, a boundless grace/
No hate resides where pride takes seat/
A heart unyielding, steady in its beat/
The king of kings, beneath its light/
Bow to the Pitbull, in eternal might/

I hear your doubt, I feel your scorn
But I will rise up, and defy the norm
I will not be held back, I will not be denied
I will break through, and reach the other side
No matter the odds, no matter the cost
I will not be stopped, I will not be lost
I will keep pushing, I will keep striving
I will keep believing, I will keep surviving
Your doubt may be loud, but my faith is strong
My courage will never waiver, no matter how long
I will not be beaten, I will not be bowed
I will keep going, until I am proud
I will reach the top, I will make my mark
I will show the world, I can light the dark
Your doubt may be loud, but I will be louder
I will rise up, and make myself proud.

At a time like this
When all hope seems lost
Listen and ponder
God is still saying something
At a time like this
When your prayers defy answers
Pray the more
Your breakthrough is close
At a time like this
When you receive a sack letter
Instead of promotion
Do not despair
God could use any foolish thing
To preserve you for elevation
At a time like this
When adversity persists
And every communication ceases with God
It is time to look into your love walk

We are born in the same way,
Then why this disparity?
Race, sex, caste - stop such melee,
Spread love, peace and charity,
I have red blood, so do you,
Then aren't we equal, brother?
Give respect where it is due,
Let us honour each other,
I'm human with the same needs
like you, friend. Think about it,
Race discrimination leads
to unnecessary split,
What if there was a divide,
Based on the colour of eyes?
An idea sure cockeyed,
It wouldn't be considered wise
What 'bout the colour of hair?
Dark-haired people, if deemed great,
Do you think it would be fair
to light-haired to bear that hate?
Then why does hued skin matter?
We are the same before God,
These man-made walls must shatter
in truth, not just on record,
Let's not stoop to violence,
Stifling cries of "I can't breathe",
Such voices none can silence,
Their blood from the ground will seethe,
There comes a day of judgement,
When we'll stand before God's throne,
All nod their acknowledgement,
That it'll be 'no divide zone'.

Beyond comparison,
they rise when we fall
Uniquely divergent,
to impale and enthrall
No reference or genre,
descriptions confound

Perfection and honor,
concealed in the words
Shame and disloyalty,
rejected unheard
Deep in a poem,
truth’s finality hides
Inhumanity cursed,
—its verses defy

Let’s fly.....becoming each other’s wings,
Lets’ try.....riding together in swings,
Life is too petite for searching a diamond,
Lets love.....turning summers into springs.
Lets jump…every hurdle together,
Lets clump…all happiness as feather,
Togetherness is a sign of bliss,
Lets search……true smiles for everyone to gather.
Let’s cry…….out of crazy happiness
Let’s fry……..out of fishy laziness,
Every second spawning energy
Let’s destroy……..the mist of haziness.
Let’s dance…….forgetting the shame,
Let’s advance…..leaving greedy game,
Living for each other’s happiness,
Let’s renounce……the notorious blame.
Let’s kill…….that devastating gain,
Let’s instil…..the syrupy pain
World is to love and live,
Let’s thrill……the spirits of deadliest terrain.
Let’s live…..life with minds & hearts clear,
Lets’ give….a poor our best share,
Equality is everybody’s right
Let’s sieve…. .Trust from greed’s glare.

Defy the dreadnaught darkness
that repels Gods' given light.
Beware the banshee blackness
dour damnation shrieks delight.
Leather wings and padded paws
phantom forms of ferine fright,
searing eyes and hunters' maws
drive intrepid hearts to flight.
From the boiling brimstone bile,
condemned corpses rise as one.
Pockmarked faces nod and smile
for the noxious night has won.
Defy the dreadnaught darkness
let the serpents' sons be bred.
Beware the banshee blackness
as the worms caress the dead.
Perverse pits where evil pours
scorched blood and liquid lead.
Demons crack forbidden doors
so our shivers might be fed.
Defy the dreadnaught darkness
where the rancid reptiles dwell.
Beware the banshee blackness
where one mis-step broaches Hell.

I refuse to take that corporate needle
in my arm
They can never change me
so I run
I'm being chased and hunted down
hide with me
We will be the ones who live
we shall live on.

Every time I close my eyes
A new frontier is waiting
I gave my word to the sky
Just my way of defying destiny
Defying destiny
Destiny defied
Defying destiny
Destiny defied
Virtue hangs from a cross
Still out of reach from the hands of decadence
I tear through the desolation
Just my way of defying destiny
Defying destiny
Destiny defied
Defying destiny
Destiny defied…
