From the recording Destiny
Lyrics
Growing up in my hometown
Looking up and not down
Mama always told me
Boy, you can be what you wanna' be
So, from that day to this day
I got a mind to go all the way
And nothing's gon' stop me
From reaching my destiny
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
Living from day to day
And always I pray
That the Lord will guide me
Before the devil rides me
I got a made up mind
To stay on the right line
And with God's help
Make something of myself
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
So before you go
There's something you must know
Hear me when I say
I'm going all the way
There ain't no stopping
There ain't no blocking
No, I ain't gon' stop
'Til I reach the top
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
Every song I write
Every day and night
I'll give it my best
Won't settle for less
So, if you hear my voice
You better make your choice
To sit around and die
Or get up and fly
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
I can. You can. We will reach our destiny
