UNBOUND

Battling warfare to secure my future linage 

A mother’s tears, a sister’s fight, bloodline’s vileness

Descendants imprisoned; heredities remain childless

Never experience freedom or visualize God's gifts in their arms

Through legal agreement, disappointments were spawned 

I curse Leviathan, Jezebel, and Marine spirits,

Malevolent witchcraft, hocus pocus—I am not with it 

Fortuneteller, Soothsayer, Warlock-Satanist

Wiccan, stargazers, zodiac followers, and hypnotists

Necromancer, mediums, peeping and muttering

False prophesy, curses, and malicious utterings

The Lord of Armies-Mighty in Battle eliminates you

The pleading of His name my legacy grew

In Thine Hands

As mine hand wrap yours soft and tender
Hope filled mine heart with joys of bliss
Conduct first steps in walking with you
Precious jewel wrapped in mine hands

Years strengthens yours hands full grown
The hands of time days quickly passed 
Equal to mine they became
Perfectly our crossed hands fitted
Full of excitement you left
Home loving Father blessed you
One of our own in your hands
A cheer of bless heredities 

Today your hands are muscled up
Strong lifts this vessel entrust upon
Those little hands industrious
Curries me around with energy
Though strong and benevolent child
Against mine that is aged golden
Nature so sets me divine call
Favoured, venerated and blessed 
Aged with grace a priceless wine
