I wrote Destiny as a contemplative song.
I wanted to write a song that had “world music” styling but that could not be pinpointed to a particular genre, country, or culture.
It’s an amalgam of musical style and influences.
Its goal is to reassure you, make you feel good, make you think, and let you know that things can be alright.
Do your part and... let destiny do the rest…
Lyrics
I want to please you, make you say yes
Seduce your mind with skillfulness
Prompt your body to effervesce
Induce a feeling of happiness
Let destiny do the rest
To be the best you got to possess
A certain charm, a certain finesse
To be the best you’ve got to dress
Like you possess the key to success
Let destiny do the rest
That memory that you repress
It’s part of you that you suppress
You make mistakes but must progress
There’s really no need to obsess
Let destiny do the rest
It’s how you dress, it’s how you undress
That will define, that will impress
Give you an air, a certain noblesse
Fuel the desire for your caress
Let destiny do the rest
To all of you I must profess
I’d like to send an S.O.S.
I think it’s best that I express
How I feel, how I distress
Let destiny do the rest
It’s time for us to pause and assess
The situations that causes stress
Picture a button you depress
That make your troubles evanesce
Let destiny do the rest
Let’s reassess how we measure success
Not how you’re born, or how you’re blessed
It’s how you act under duress
That is the measure of the test
Let destiny do the rest
