Lately I have been feeling like the entire world has been against me and waiting for me to fail! I almost gave in! However, I awoke with the following on my heart!

"I was held down and feeling depressed
Forgetting the struggled required to be the best
I know I must press
I look in the mirror
and my reflection could not be any clearer
God's purpose for me
Is all I can see
Can't stop, won't stop
My place in this world is on top!
HIS daughter running the industry
That's why I got to grind and be busy
That's why I got to move to the hustler's city
That spirit is in me!
Can a minor set back take me out?
So silly I was to doubt
my destiny. My eye wandered off the prize
Forgetting a pheonix will always rise!
I know this life ain't made of no crystal stairs
but He will never put more on me than I can bear
So when it rains
I won't complain
I know at times I will cry
and I will tire, but I can sleep when I die
He not only called me to be Defiant
He ordered it, drew up a contract and signed it!
And I thank God for granting me
This moment of clarity
So that I may walk in TRUTH!" ~ A Truthfully Defiant Spirit by taeAmin


I guess I am realizing now more than ever, a big part of being Defiant...is faith. Defiance often rubs people the wrong way because it is unconventional. Who wants to be the exception to the rule? Who wants to be challenged on things accepted as the standard? If you are going to Defiant, you have to know that you are so, not to be cocky or arrogant, but because you refuse not to spread light everywhere you go. And if Defiance is part of your higher calling, than you have to have faith to walk in what you know to be truth, because it will often be tested! My truth? I got to take over media and hip hop! Thats always in my mind and has been for the past 9 years. I have to 1) believe that it is written, 2) i gotta hustle harder than Jay Z to do so, 3) realize that with no test there is no testimony!
