Analysis of Destiny
Destiny has made me hate and made me love
Etched in stone is my destiny to be great
Stricken by hardships I persevere
Time has broke my heart but built me back up again
Intertwined in misery and joy I am but a
shadow of the man I will be
Nostalgic feeling about my past which I
cannot fix and my future nature I cannot control
Yearning for questions and answers yet to
be conceived but yet I know only time will unravel my destiny.
