Tis said of every individual that they can shape their own destiny 
Though others will tell you quite differently and with such thinking would not agree 
Who knows what will happen tomorrow who knows what your future will bring 
Though at present you feel a bit ordinary and none other your praises do sing. 
 
You may try to shape your own destiny without taking circumstance into account 
And you may have great plans for the future and to little that too can amount 
To if destiny does not point in that direction your destiny and circumstance 
Does play a huge part in your future our gift of life came about by chance. 
 
Who knows what will happen tomorrow you may feel sad and tearful today 
Tonight you may win first division tattslotto and you can celebrate in a big way 
Or tomorrow for you than today little different with your same set of worries and woes 
As Shaw once said 'Life's Not Meant To Be Easy' but such is life one must suppose. 
 
Who knows what the future will bring to you despite what some say it does seem to me 
That we cannot look into the future such things are beyond us to see 
Those things known as circumstance and destiny a huge part in our lives do play 
And these two can make us or break us for in our future they have a big say.
