Do Better
Sacrifice
Courage
Wisdom
And pain
All of life’s lessons
Played out like a delusional game
Success has been feared
Strengths have been tested
Dreams demolished
Although some wrongs may never be righted
The truth will always remain with you
Whether you decide to change one moment
Or even an entire life time
The power rests in our hands
Our imaginations
And the passion that fuels our flame
To do better
Live wiser
And die peacefully
With no regrets
No matter how substantial your mistake
Now is never too late
Or fate may have already been decided
But if we dig deep enough
And let the anger subside
The limits of our potential
Will be greater than the sky.
